Doing Ukulele Right!

Here is the ONLY “rule” The pad of your left thumb goes behind the neck of your ukulele and follows along behind your middle finger just like Stu is doing above. We should never ever ever ever see your left thumb. There are no exceptions … and if you do this one thing, your life will be so much easier down the road when we end up dealing with difficult chords and when speed matters.

A Simple Way to Make Playing Easier Add a button onto the end of your ukulele and wear a strap when you play. You’ll need to drill a small pilot hole in the end of your uke. It’s OK.

What You DON’T Need A Capo: You’ll be making so many bar chords a capo will just get in the way. If you have guitar in your background, you’ll have to let it go. A Pick: Seriously throw them away. You’ll be using all of your fingers simultaneously in lots of different ways and a pick will be of no help. If you want to grow out the fingernails on your right hand it’s kinda weird but useful. Sorry, but the fingernails on your left hand hafta go. A manicurist can still get unicorn stickers onto short nails.

Ukulele Types Soprano: Small and traditional. Concert: A little bigger and easier to play. Tenor: Most adults should be playing tenor. Baritone: Four string guitar for bigger hands. U-Bass: The lowest ukulele is tuned like a bass. Banjolele: An ukulele with a banjo head for playing real loud without teeth or shoes. Your hand size and finger shapes determine the best size for you. Wait to buy an expensive ukulele until you know what sound and playability issues matter for you. Almost all ukuleles can be amplified by adding an electronic pickup.

Stuff You’ll Need

• An ukulele, duh! • A button and an ukulele strap • A gig bag with a shoulder strap • A Snark ST-8 clip-on tuner • A music stand and light • A three-ring binder with section dividers • Highlighters and pencils • A kazoo … no really

Strings: If your strings are white or black, you need to change them to modern fluorocarbon within six months of your initial purchase. You need to change strings at least once a year. A Note About Low-G Tuning: A metal-wound Low-G string can tear your instrument apart if it’s not built for the pressure. You can always use a plastic Low-G string (but they don’t sound good). Low-G ukuleles are built stronger and cost more. Other Helpful Notes

• Hold your ukulele at a 60-degree angle. • Make sure the back of the ukulele remains in

contact with the front side of you. • Don’t lay your ukulele in your lap or let it fall

into a horizontal position. • Dots are on frets 5, 7 and 10. Memorize! • Tension will ruin your joy in music. The only

pain you should feel is on your fingertips and your left thumb should feel tired.

Tune Your Ukulele (every time you play!)

How to use Relative Tuning ... buy a tuning fork tuned to A.Check the open string #1, string #2 on the fifth fret, and string #4 on the second fret.Once those are set, double check every string as shown to see if they sound the same.

This is George Clooney. He used to be wildly famous. People Magazine gave him an award for being dreamy in 1997 and then again in 2006. He'sold now and he still looks better than everybody.He married a model and lives in Italy. But kids these days don't know him because he wears a suit of armor and sells Nespresso. I've decided I'm bringing George back. Help make him famous.

George Clooney Eats Apples = GCEA

→ or, Goats Can Eat Anything = GCEA→ For BARITONE ukuleles use DGBE→ Canadian tuning is ADF#B (just 'cuz)

Use a top of the line clip-on tuner or a tuning app on your phone. Check your tuning every time you play.

Playing the C Scale

Playing the C Scale: Learn effective techniques for each hand.

For now, use only your thumb on your right hand. On your left hand use: → If you play a 1: Use your index finger.→ If you play a 2: Use your middle finger.→ If you play a 3: Use your ring finger.

Start on Middle C, play up to High C, and then turn around and go back down.

In almost every style of music and on every instrument, musicians play scales to warm up their hands and study the best ways to move to achieve the best tonality. This is your first scale. It's the most important one on ukulele.

To be an effective musician you'll need to memorize the piano keyboard layout. It's easier to learn the pattern of those notes on the piano and then find them on your ukulele. The layout of the "white keys"are shown here. The black keys have two names (sharp or flat) and those live between the notes shown.This layout is effective at explaining why you find dots on your fretboard at frets 5 and 7 too.

[C] “You'll come a-waltzing Ma- [G] tilda with [C] me. Waltzing Matilda. [F] Waltzing Matilda. [C] You'll come a-waltzing Ma- [G] tilda with me.” And he [C] sang as he [G] sat and [Am] waited 'til his [F] billy boiled.

[C] You'll come a-waltzing Ma- [G] tilda with me.” Saying, [C] “Where's that jolly [G] jumbuck you've [Am] got inside your [F] tucker bag? [C] “You'll come a-waltzing Ma- [G] tilda with [C] me.” Verse 4: [C] Up jumped the [G] swag man, he [Am] sprang into the [F] billabong. [C] “You'll never catch me a- [G] live....” And his [C] ghost may be [G] heard as you [Am] pass along that [F] billabong. [C] “You'll come a-waltzing Ma- [G] tilda with [C] me. Waltzing Matilda. [F] Waltzing Matilda. [C] You'll come a-waltzing Ma- [G] tilda with me.” And his [C] ghost may be [G] heard as you [Am] pass along that [F] billabong. [C] “You'll come a-waltzing Ma- [G] tilda with [C] me.” Big Finish: [C] Waltzing Matilda. [F] Waltzing Matilda. [C] You'll come a-waltzing Ma- [G] tilda with me.” And his [C] ghost may be [G] heard as you [Am] pass along that [F] billabong. [C] “You'll come a-waltzing Ma-[G] tilda with [C] me.”

But come ye back when [F] summer's in the [C] meadow, or when the valley's [F] hushed and white with [G7] snow. Oh I'll be [C] here in [F] sunshine or in [C] shadow. Oh Danny boy oh Danny [G7] boy I love you [C] so. Verse 2: But if you come and all the flowers [F] dying, and I am [C] dead (and dead I well may [G7] be), you'll come and [C] find the place where I am [F] lying, and kneel and [C] say an [G7] "Ave" for [C] me. And I will know though [F] soft you tread a- [C] bove me, and in my grave will [F] warm and sweeter [G7] be. And you'll kneel [C] down and [F] whisper that you [C] love me. And I will sleep in peace un- [G7] til you come to [C] me.

Lava – I Lava You from the Pixar Animated Short Film

Intro: [C] [G] [F] [C] [G7] [G7]

Verse 1: [C] A long long time ago

[G] there was a volcano

[F] living all alone in the

[C] middle of the [G7] sea.

[C] He sat high above his bay

[G] watching all the couples play and

[F] wishing that

[C] he had someone [G7] too.

[C] And from his lava came

[G] this song of hope that he sang

[F] of love everyday [C] for years and

[G7] years.

Chorus: [F] I have a dream I

[C] hope will come true that

[G] you're here with me and

[C] I'm here with you. I

[F] wish that the Earth, sea, the

[C] sky up above-a will

[G7] send me someone to [C] lava.

[Slow Down]

Verse 2: [C] Years of singing all alone

[G] turned his lava into stone

[F] until he was on the

[C] brink of extinc- [G7] tion.

[C] But little did he know that

[G] living in the sea below

[F] another volcano was

[C] listening to his [G7] song.

[C] Everyday she heard his tune

[G] her lava grew and grew

[F] because she believed his

[C] song was meant for [G7] her.

[C] Now she was so ready to

[G] meet him above the sea as he

[F] sang his song of hope

[C] for the last [G7] time.

[Back to the Chorus]

Verse 3: [C] Rising from the sea below

[G] stood a lovely volcano

[F] looking all around but

[C] she could not see [G7] him.

[C] He tried to sing to let her know that

[G] she was not there alone, but

[F] with no lava his

[C] song was all [G7] gone.

[C] He filled the sea with his tears and

[G] watched his dreams disappear as

[F] she remembered what his

[C] song meant to [G7] her.

[Back to the Chorus]

Verse 4: [C] Oh they were so happy to

[G] finally meet above the sea.

[F] All together now their

[C] lava grew and [G7] grew.

[C] No longer are they all alone with

[G] aloha as their new home and

[F] when you visit them

[C] this is what they [G7] sing.

[F] I have a dream I

[C] hope will come true that

[G] you'll grow old with me and

[C] I'll grow old with you.

[F] We thank the Earth, sea, the

[C] sky we thank too.

[G7] I lava [C] you.

[G7] I lava [C] you.

[G7] I lava [C] you.
