UKULELE BEGINNER COURSE
I make the ukulele simple by quickly teaching you four simple chords and three key strum patterns that will allow you to play hundreds of songs in a fun, varietous way. By the end of this course, you will also develop the skills you need to look up any song you want, simplify the chords, and play it with confidence. Get it here: fourchordsimpl...
SONGBOOK
My songbook includes the chords, lyrics, and strum patterns for every song that I teach on my channel, each displayed on a single page. Hundreds of songs, four simple chords. Get it here: fourchordsimpl...
CHORDS
In all of my hundreds of tutorial videos, I stick to just four basic chords:
C Am F G

STRUMMING PATTERNS
In an effort to keep things simple and avoid overwhelming beginners, I don’t put the strumming patterns in my videos. If you are just getting started, I’d recommend sticking with a simple downstrum once per chord.
After learning a few songs, having some fun, and gaining confidence, feel free to expand from there, but there’s no need to go overboard. To this day, I stick with just three simple strum patterns that create enough variety to avoid sounding monotonous:
1. Downstrum Strum Pattern (↓ ↓ ↓ ↓ ). I use this strum pattern for the mellower parts of songs. It can be done at a low-intensity with one strum per chord/measure (↓ ), at a medium-intensity with two strums per measure (↓ ↓ ), or at a high-intensity with four strums per measure (↓ ↓ ↓ ↓ ).
2. Upstrum Strum Pattern ( ↑ ↑ ↑ ↑). I use this strum pattern for happy, carefree songs that remind me of reggae like any song from Bob Marley.
3. Upbeat Strum Pattern (↓ ↓↑ ↑↓↑). I use this strum pattern during the high-energy parts of a song. If a chord lasts for more than one measure, I’ll carry out the ↑↓↑ part of the strum pattern until I switch to the next chord (↓ ↓↑ ↑↓↑ ↑↓↑ ↑↓↑...). If a chord only lasts for half a measure, I’ll cut the strum pattern in half (↓ ↓↑). And if a chord lasts for a single measure, I will play it in the standard fashion (↓ ↓↑ ↑↓↑).
I really do stick to just these three strumming patterns in my hundreds of tutorial videos. I teach and demonstrate each strumming pattern in-depth in my Ukulele Beginner Course: fourchordsimpl...
Please feel free to use whatever strum patterns you’d like as you learn the songs on my channel, but if you are interested in replicating the strumming patterns I use, I’ve carefully written them out for each song with the lyrics and chords in my songbook. Get it here: fourchordsimpl...

Thanks for the song request! I'll take a look, and if it's a popular song that can be done with just C, F, Am, and G, I'll consider making a tutorial of it. 👍
What's the strumming pattern?
Hi! To keep things simple and avoid overwhelming beginners, I don’t include the strum patterns in the videos. If you are just getting started, I’d recommend sticking with a simple downstrum once per chord.
After learning a few songs, having some fun, and gaining confidence, feel free to expand from there, but there’s no need to go overboard. To this day, I stick with just three simple strum patterns that create enough variety to avoid sounding monotonous. I've explained and written them out in the video description for you to reference. ☝
Please feel free to use whatever strum patterns you’d like as you learn the songs on my channel, but if you are interested in replicating the strumming patterns I use, I’ve carefully written them out for each song with the lyrics and chords in my songbook: fourchordsimple.com/songbook/ Enjoy! 😊
You deserve a lot more subscribers really. You rock \m/_
Thanks! 😊
