I thought this song was waay cute. I'm trying to figure out the chords on guitar, but having a little trouble with the picking.

and I would really like to try this on the uke as well, any help? That'd be super~ :)

Here are the chords for uke (or at least as close as I can get - it sounds pretty good)

I put the variations in the chords in parenthesis. Listen / watch the video for timing. If this format is too confusing, let me know and I can try to clarify.

He capoes the guitar, but on an open uke you could play:

intro:
-1-(1)--1-(1)--3---3--
-3-(1)--1-(1)--3---4--
-3-(3)--0-(2)--3---3--
-0-(0)--3-(3)--0---5--

verse:

-1--1--3--3-(3)-
-3--1--3--4-(4)-
-3--2--3--3-(3)-
-0--3--0--5-(3)-

chorus:

-1--1--3--3-
-3--1--3--4-
-3--2--3--3-
-0--3--0--5-

He plays the intro progression after the chorus

Bridge:
-1--3-
-3--4-
-2--3-
-0--5-
 
Here is the guitar tab, if you are interested:

Capo 3:

intro:
-0--(0)---0--(0)---0---0-
-1--(1)---1--(3)---1---1-
-0--(0)---0--(0)---2---2-
-2--(0)---0--(0)---2---3-
-3--(3)---2--(2)---0---3-
-3--(3)---3--(3)---------

verse:
-0---0---0---0--(0)-
-1---1---1---1--(1)-
-0---0---2---2--(0)-
-2---0---2---3--(3)-
-3---2---0---3--(3)-
-3---3--------------

chorus:
-0---0---0---0--
-1---1---1---1--
-0---0---2---2--
-2---0---2---3--
-3---2---0---3--
-3---3----------

after the chorus he plays the intro bit again

bridge:

-0---0--
-0---1--
-0---2--
-2---3--
-2---3--
-0------

**Sorry for the double post, but I thought having the guitar tabs in the same post as the uke might be a bit confusing.
 
hi, do you think you could change that into chords for the piano :)

thanks :)
 
Haha I wish I could help - I can play a few instruments, but piano is currently on my "to learn" list. The basic chords, though, are:

verse / chorus: D# A# Cm G#

bridge: Gm G#
 
Yeah thanks for that. I tried to figure it out by playing the video and playing the piano but I think his guitar might be slightly off pitch because I couldnt match it with the notes i was playing. I did it figure it though, i had the melody in my head and I did it in C. and it seems to be the same progression as your post (obviously 3 steps down though)

verse/intro/chorus i get some combination of

Cmaj, Gmaj, Amin, Fmaj

thanks though!
 
Hi thanks for the chords/tab there!
Just wondering if anyone can help me with the strumming hes doing there? is he picking the 5th string then going down, up, down, up steadily or what because I dont seem to be able to manage the right rhythm
 
i just saw this vid, and it is the shizznit.
 
I just found this one too:)

they are playing it just like JonesyDaves said but one step lower, so D, A, Bm, G and A, G
