72 years old and I finally learned the right chords for Over the Rainbow. That song always reminds me of my daughter when she was three and wanted me to drive our car up on top of a rainbow to see things. And of course it also reminds me of Dorothy and the great Izzy. Thank you so much for this. And yes, I will drink my water and eat my vegetables and be a good person.
Are you actually 72?
@@alainaalwaysbehappy1806 Not any more. I had a birthday so 73 now.
this is so sweet 😭

Hope this helps anyone! Great tutorial :) I just got my ukulele a couple days ago and I've been improving a lot!
Also, does anyone have tips for transitioning between chords? I tend to pause between the chords and it doesn't sound very nice.
when i am learning a new chord i have the same problem just keep practicing until you get better at each chord take it one step at a time
You made my day
@@get_yonkered_lol1630 i’m glad !!
@@hilarymiller1396 yes ofc, the most important thing when practicing is so start off slow, just one step at a time
Verses before the chorus or after the chorus ?
Me: Why won't my ukulele sound right?
Also me: *tunes ukulele AECG*
Cosmoni YT that’s me tho
yas
Cosmoni YT What’s the right tuning ?

Me: why doesn’t this sound right???
Also me: *tries to play it on violin because I can’t wait till Christmas to get a ukulele*
Edit: a year later and this got 1k likes! I do have the ukulele if you’re wondering (it’s a kala) and I recently got a guitar! I feel kinda bad because the comment I stole this format from didn’t get 1k likes yet haha anyways I’ll probably make another edit around next Christmas!
j e n n y b e a n LMAO I DO THE SAME THING! I TRY USING MY VIOLIN AS A UKULELE AND IT SOUNDS WEIRD BECAUSE IT’S GDAE AND NOT GCEA LMAOO
I hope u have ur ukulele already!🥰❤️🎄✨
I got a uke todayyyy
I got mine today!
Amethyst Girl yeh!
My dad wanted to learn this song with me from a RUclips tutorial. We were using a different one, but he never gave me a link so I looked it up. Then I got so excited to see that one of my favorite musical RUclipsrs had a tutorial for it 😃😃😃
I love your singing!
Thank you so much!!:)

Lyrics bc why not
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
And the dreams that you dream of
Once in a lullaby
Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
And the dreams that you dream of
Dreams really do come true
Someday, I wish upon a star
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
High above the chimney top
That's where you'll find me
Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
And the dreams that you dare to
Oh why, oh why can't I?
Well, I see trees of green and red roses too
I'll watch them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
Well, I see skies of blue and I see clouds of white
And the brightness of day
I like the dark
And I think to myself what a wonderful world
The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky
And also on the faces of people passing by
I see friends shaking hands saying
How do you do?
They're really saying I, I love you
I hear babies cry and I watch them grow
They'll learn much more then we'll know
And I think to myself what a wonderful world
World
Someday I wish upon a star
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
High above the chimney top
That's where you'll find me
Oh, somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
And the dreams that you dare to
Why oh, why can't I?
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Holly Echo thank you for the lyrics
Thank you--

Your Voice is so angelic can you sing la vi en rose please 😀😀😀

Simp.
Are you freaking kidding me her voice is horrible
Thank you so much for teaching us this song. My old dog had passed away to this song playing back in August and I haven’t been able to listen to it since then. Today, I whipped out my ukulele and decided to learn to play this song and for once, I haven’t shed a tear. Thank you so much. 🙏🏼
THIS IS JUST WHAT I WANTED TO LEARN, THEN BOOM YOU POSTED THIS! I JUST GOT MY FIRST UKULELE BECAUSE OF YOU! THANK YOU!
I just got my ukulele too for this reason 😂
So, quick backstory:
I got my ukulele for Christmas this year (it’s December 30th). When my great grandma died, her favorite song was the Hawaiian version of somewhere over the rainbow. My goal was to learn this and play it at a family reunion or something. Now I know how to play this song and I can’t wait for the next family get together! Thanks for reading
Good for u!!
Your great grandma would be very proud. Have you been able to play it for your family yet? ❤️
I’ve been waiting for this for so long! Finally! ❤️ 😁
Jean Paris me too! The original video is awesome, and now we can recreate it ourselves!
YES🙌🏼 I’ve been waiting for this song....literally love IZ so much! Keep doing you Elise! You’re amazing!! 😄👍🏼
Hi Elise,
You are the reason that I bought myself a ukelele. So far have been teaching myself and love it.
Love the way you sing.
That “dreams really do come true” hit me so hard cuz I’ve been wanting one for more than 4 years and my parents are finally getting me one ! I can’t wait 😊
I have been trying to learn this song forever!
OMG MY THREE FAVORITE THINGS. ELISE,SOMEWHERE OVER THE RAINBOW, AND THE UKULELE!!!!!!!

Okay.. *WHAT*
My mom and step-dad literally just told me to learn this song on my uke a few day ago and then you do this, can you read peoples minds?
Thank you for this tutorial. I took up the uke because I have always wanted to learn a musical instrument to play this song. I went through many tutorials with various strumming pattern and finger picking on RUclips but your one is the quickest and easiest to learn from. Thank you so much!!
OMG I literally was looking for this today. Glad you did a tutorial :D
YOUR HAIR IS AMAZING!!!! MY FAV COLOUR!
thank you so much!!:)
The strumming pattern is hard until you get it, And if you just do it correctly, it sounds beautiful and i was like, “OMG, I CAN PLAY SOMEWHERE OVER THE RAINBOW!!!” I was so happy then i was just memorizing it then, thanks for the tutorial!
My dear friend gave me a ukulele for my 53rd birthday containing your flyer and stickers. Here I am, a week later and I can play over the rainbow among my own little rifs! So much fun! I love it! Thank you!
I’m so happy I found your channel!! It helps soooo much! Make more soon!
Thank you for this video! This song has always had a special place in my heart!! I’m glad I found your channel!
RIP To the amazing IZ(Israel Kamakawiwo'ole)
I’ve watched a lot of tutorials but this one is the best. Easy to learn and to my opinion it sounds so close to the original song. Thank you!
Hey Elise!!!! I just want to thank you for inspiring me to play the ukulele, I really appreciate it! Soon I will be able to buy a ukulele out of my savings and I cannot wait! Carry on what ever happens because I’m always with you. You have a good future.
Amazing! Always impressed. 😁😊💕 (Love your hair)

Thank you Soo much, I've been wanting to play this on my ukulele but i was so confused and you came to my rescue and help me out.
Elise, thank you so so much for making this video!!!! I got my first ukulele this Christmas and knew how to play from a while back when my friend let me borrow her uke. I knew how to play the chords, but I wanted to find a easy song to play, and I was able to get this down so quickly!!!! Thank you again, your amazing!
Learning songs has become so much easier since I found your channel!! Never stop!!

Bang up job on this tutorial, this is exactly what I was looking for!
Girl, I know you probably won’t respond to this but holy cow. 1.) you are so fricken beautiful. 2.) You have an amazing talent and 3.) thank you so much for posting this. Our trip to Hawaii was canceled and my mom’s birthday is coming up so I thought why not sing this song to her and play the ukulele. I was in All state Choir for Colorado and she keeps telling me to learn this song, so since we’re in quarantine and our trip was canceled, I knew it was the perfect timing. Thank you so much love!!💛
