So i just bought a bunch of Hal Leonard guitar chord books (mostly because the motown one had lots of Stevie Wonder chords). One of them has the song 'Mony Mony'. So for the main part where it goes:
So I know what vibe it's going for but i'm not sure how to make it on uke. I'm not sure i understand slash chords. Do they just not really translate to uke? A normal B chord already has an F# in it when i play it like 4322. But does a slash mean that the root note needs to be an F#? That seems hard on a uke.
So i guess my main question is whether slash chords can be translated to uke or do you have to do something else?
Thanks!
Chris
PS in case it's not clear i know nothing about playing guitar or any instrument besides uke. so slash chords are a total mystery to me
EDIT1: BTW before you say use the search i think i've seen the other threads on the topic. But on a re-entrant uke isn't the C string almost always going to be the low string. So it seems like lots of slash strings would be hard to do (basically anything */F,G,A,B would be like way up the neck).
Code:
F# B/F# F#
Here she comes down sayin mony mony
