Note: we know many songs include the G7 chord, but for the sake of KISS (keep it simple, stupid!) we’ve left those songs out. Even if you don’t play guitar, the G Major isn’t a hard chord to use. It’s the most complicated of the four chords, but if you play guitar it’s easy as pie to get your head around, as it’s the same as the D shape. To find the F Major, fret an A Minor chord (see above) but also add your index finger to the third string.Īnd finally, a three-note chord. Ok, now for a two-note chord (it’s still mind-numbingly simple though). Play the A Minor by placing your middle finger on the fourth string, second fret. The A minor is another simple, one-note chord (we told you the uke is a simple instrument!). Note: you can use your index finger to play it, but using your ring finger will help with moving to other chords as we’re about to find out. To play it, simply put your ring finger on the third fret of the first string (using this finger will help when transitioning to other chords). The good news is that playing a C on the uke is unbelievably easy (you literally play one note, and the rest are open strings). The first of the four ukulele chords is the C Major. Note, you’ll first need to tune your uke to the notes GCEA (note: the letters refer to ukulele string names).
