   Great tune, thanks for pointing it out. The chord chart doesn’t correspond with the numbers for the fingering below them. Which one do we go off of?

   Crookshankz: The numbers below refer to which finger you use to fret that note.

   I love to see such a high profile artist using the uke, you just know its going to encourage even more young people to the ukulele side of the force!

   cbf: Let’s hope so.

   Is he using a baritone ukulele?

   Brian: I’m pretty sure it’s not a baritone. I’m guessing it’s a concert.

   i keep finding new songs i fall in love with here, and now i’m better at uke than guitar, which is ridiculous.

   thanks for the chords :B

   Thanks, DoctorSly. I hope this is going to be a single. Such a great song.

   if i put a capo on the second fret, how would i play note A

10. Woodshed November 14th, 2008 7:23 pm
    

    anelec: Open G string or E string, three frets above the capo.

    umm question

    which fret do you play for each chord?

    I’m so annoyed that I can’t buy this song anywhere! Great job tabbing it out! I absolutely love HGB, and I love that Forrest is playing the ukulele now. I love Forrest, period.
    I feel like the uke is tuned a little flatter, or mine is just sharp.
    Can anyone identify what uke he’s playing (brandwise)?

    shalommm: There’s a guide to reading chord charts here.

    Jane: I believe it’s a Kala KA-T.

    Not sure if this is OBE’d, but noticed that Hellogoodbye has released three uke recordings (titled “Ukulele Recordings”). Ran across it on iTunes.

    Thanks, Dave. I need to update this post.

    I love this song/EP and it’s partly why I bought my ukulele yesterday!
    I’m having great fun with these songs, but also wondering if there will be a tab/chords for the other song on the EP – betrayed by bones which can be heard here http://supjustin.com/post/61199517/betrayed-by-bones-hellogoodbye-have-been

    ashers: Congratulations on the new uke. I might have a go at that one sometime.

    Omg i need to find the piano tabs for this song!!!! Help?

19. luvuke November 23rd, 2009 12:36 am
    

    I’m confused with the tuning in this song. Is the tuning the #’s and letters on top?

20. Woodshed November 23rd, 2009 9:23 pm
    

    luvuke: It’s in D-tuning (you can hear the notes here). Or you can put a capo on at the second fret.

    If you don’t mind playing it in a different key, you can just play the chord shapes as they’re written.

21. Joey March 21st, 2010 9:16 pm
    

    couldn’t you play those chords in normal tuning?

22. Zach April 7th, 2010 10:19 pm
    

    heyy thanks a lot i love this song, ive been playing guitar for a while and i just stared playing uke recently and ive just been pouring over all the songs you have lol thanks

23. Woodshed April 8th, 2010 6:15 pm
    

    Joey: Yes, you could do.

    Zach: Thanks!

    hey, did anyone figure out the tabs during the solo? it would be cool to add it instead of the regular strumming inbetween.

25. Brittanylaah August 15th, 2010 12:36 am
    

    The chord chart doesn’t correspond with the numbers for the fingering below them. Which one do we go off of?

26. Gabby October 8th, 2010 10:09 pm
    

    it feels kind of weird playing G#m,is there another way to play it? because i cant get it down :/

27. Alissa December 25th, 2010 3:41 am
    

    @Brittanylaah it sounds like we go off the numbers for the fingering. The chord charts just don’t sound right at all.

28. Woodshed January 1st, 2011 12:47 pm
    

    Brittanylaah and Alissa: You might want to read this post about chord charts. The numbers at the bottom are fingerings rather than frets. The number at the side indictes which fret the chord diagram starts at.

    hey is there any chance you could quick let me know what the chords are for this song in normal tuning? I cant find them anywhere, thanks!

    A few minutes ago, I grabbed my uke and started to play this song because I was bored and also because I love this song and this was the first one that came to my mind. I actually wanted to play a french song (I’m half french) but I can’t play any. I’ve been working on La Vie en Rose by Edith Piaf since this afternoon but then I found so much covers on youtube in which people had their own version/chords, so I thought I would try to make my own version too… But then I found out that I was not good enough yet to “guess” the chords and I got bored. Anyway, just wanted to leave a comment here and hope someone would answer within the next 10min but that won’t happen I guess x) So I will just thank mr. ukulelehunt for the website and for the songs that I have discovered here. And thank you for the ones who have read this comment until the end. ha
    Cheers,
    Angie :)

    Angie: Thanks! Yes, 10 minutes was overambitious!

32. Angie May 23rd, 2013 11:17 am
    

    Allright, next time I’ll make sure that I get bored when somebody’s online ;). Btw, just found out that theres also a mobile Version of the Website that makes it even cooler :O

    Angie: Glad you like it!
