Uke Around The World

We have to get out and vote today. May the spirit move you to make it to the voting polls if you haven’t already sent in your ballots. We have been overseas so we applied for an overseas ballot and sent our votes in to be counted! May you be among the others sharing the freedom of voice in our government.

Today’s song is by Raffi. I grew up listening to his children’s songs and remember them fondly! I play them now for my own kids because they are fun and share lyrics about kindness, and even silliness.

I changed the lyrics and the key here.

We’re taking the “staircase/tic-tac-toe” shape for Em and moving it from strings 1, 2, 3 to strings 2, 3, 4 to play B7. The transition helps practice that chord shape and switching from string to string while plucking! Let me know if you try it.

Vote when the spirit says vote!
