Memory Ukulele Chords

by Kina Grannis
247 views, added to favorites 6 times
This is based off of Alina37's and Kengus's excellent guitar tabs for this song, I just adapted it to be playable on the ukulele. If you would rather just strum the chords instead of fingerpicking them, the (recommended, not required) chord fingerings and strumming patterns are listed at the top. If strumming, only strum the Em9 chord once.Was this info helpful?
Difficulty: beginner
Tuning: G C E A
Capo: 3rd fret
