Photograph – Ed Sheeran
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Written by: Ed Sheeran/Johnny McDaid/Martin Harrington/Tom Leonard
From: “X” [multiply] (2014)
Tabbed by: maguri
Tuning: soprano C
Tip for beginners: Transpose the chords down (-2 to D or -4 to C) for easier
chord shapes. Use a ukulele capo to match the key of Sheeran's recording
(2nd fret for -2 or 4th fret for -4).
