Ukulele Guitar Songs
Aug 11, 2013 This guitar-ukulele, or guitalele (as some manufacturers refer to it,) is a great little instrument, and it's from the Gretsch Roots collection which is a line of instruments designed to play American 'Roots' music. The line includes a tenor, concert, and soprano ukulele made with the same specs as this instrument. Intro F#m E D A Verse 1 F#m E D A I'm not a warrior, I'm too afraid to lose F#m E D A I feel unqualified for what You're calling me to F#m E D A But Lord with Your strength, I've got no.
I've had an interesting relationship with the Uke, it was, in fact, the first type of string instrument I played as a very small child but I don't think I actually 'played' it, just strummed it randomly without any attempt at making it musical... It wasn't until early 2013 that I decided to get one and have a proper go at it.
So as I learn more songs, techniques and tips, I'll pass them on to you here. There is a lot of skills that transfer easily from the guitar so if you've been plucking the six-string for a while, you'll probably find the transition pretty easy!
It really is a great fun little instrument, and very friendly... nice soft nylon strings, easy to carry around and it's not like anyone ever expects you to do anything fancy or complicated... so there's no pressure if you pull one out at a party! Hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
Real Guitar Ukulele Chords
I think learning songs is the most fun way of learning new chords and techniques, so do check out the ukulele songs on the songs area of the site (you can use the filter so you only see the ukulele songs!) or you could use this super cool app called Ukeoke which is a bunch of cool play along songs and lesson (by me!) and it's available for iOS and Android!
