Strumming

Edit

Is this strumming pattern correct?

This version of dodie's song Rainbow can be played with a strumming pattern or plucking the strings 2,1,3.
Also this can be played with standard tuning but if you want the smae key as she plays it tune your ukulele
down to D, G, B, E or played on a baritone ukulele.
 
 
[Verse]
 
                       G   Gmaj7  Cmaj7
I was brought up in a line
                        G     Gmaj7  Cmaj7
But I seem to walk in circles
        C
It’s getting hard to navigate
      Cm                          G     Gmaj7  Cmaj7
When every map was never made for me
                         G     Gmaj7  Cmaj7
I thought it would feel good
                           G     Gmaj7  Cmaj7
To understand why I was different
         C
But my title just talks over me
    Cm                         G     Gmaj7  Cmaj7
I never even asked to be this way
 
 
[Chorus]
 
                     Fadd2   C
But to say that I’m a rainbow
                      G
To tell me that I’m bright
                             F    C
When I’m so used to feeling wrong
                          G     Gmaj7  Cmaj7
Well, it makes me feel alright
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
                  G     Gmaj7  Cmaj7
I didn’t think it fair
                  G     Gmaj7  Cmaj7
I was not to be trusted
C
How can I be proud of
         Cm                            G     Gmaj7  Cmaj7
What a million people shout at me I’m not
                          G     Gmaj7  Cmaj7
So please step inside my soul
                       G     Gmaj7  Cmaj7
I’d love to watch you gasp
           C
You’d understand in minutes
        Cm
Oh I’d like to think you’d miss it
               G     Gmaj7  Cmaj7
Cause so would I
 
 
[Chorus]
 
                       Fadd2   C
But to say that I’m a rainbow
                      G
To tell me that I’m bright
                             F    C
When I’m so used to feeling wrong
                          G     Gmaj7  Cmaj7
Well, it makes me feel alright
 
 
[Chorus]
 
                      Fadd2   C
So to say that I’m a rainbow
                      G
To tell me that I’m bright
                             F    C
When I’m so used to feeling wrong
                          G     Gmaj7  Cmaj7
Well, it makes me feel alright

Recommendation if youre plucking 213 G Em then scoot your finger up to the sixth fret on the E string then back down to Em
