If you’re a guitar player, you may notice that it’s the same shape as the D chord on your guitar. They look easy, right? C and A minor only use one finger, F uses just two fingers, and the G chord is a simple shape that many uke players find easy to make.
In fact, you can play many fun ukulele songs with only four easy chords. With just a few simple chords and basic strumming patterns, you can be playing popular tunes and fun songs on the ukulele in no time. And some of the coolest songs out there are also easy songs to play on the ukulele, even if you’re a complete beginner. After all, the ukulele is one of the easiest instruments to learn. Learning instruments should be fun, and none more so than the ukulele. It’s boring, and it’s a little bit discouraging. Let’s be honest, you didn’t start learning the ukulele to play “Mary Had a Little Lamb” or “She’ll Be Comin’ Round the Mountain.” But too often that’s what you’re stuck doing as a beginning ukulele player.
