A ukulele is a fantastic instrument for use in a birthday party! Today you will learn the ukulele chords to a famous song!
First take a look at the lyrics:
Happy Birthday To You
Happy Birthday To You
Happy Birthday Dear ...
Happy Birthday To You
The names of the chords we play presupposes that your ukulele is tuned in C. This means that the first string is an A.
Now you will learn the ukulele C-major chord:
C: 0 / 4 0 / 3 0 / 2 3 / 1
This notation ukulele tab will help you find the strings and frets to use in your ukulele.
The first number tells you which fret to press down. The number after the slash indicates the chain.
0 / 4 means you play the open fourth string on your ukulele. Yes, an open string is a string that does not press down.
3 / 1 means that you press the third fret the first string.
You have to learn a chord to play the first line of the letter. Will G7:
G7: 0 / 4 2.3 2.1 1.2
Time to try the ukulele chords to the first line. I'll put the chord names in front of words that change chords:
Happy (C) Birthdays To (G7) You
The next line has the same lyrics but a combination of different chords.
Happy (G7) Birthday (C) You
You need to know one more ukulele chord. That is F:
F: 2 / 4 0 / 3 1 / 2 0 / 1
The time of the third line. Let's put a name in the letter:
Happy (C) Birthday Dear (F) Martha
Now is the time for you to complete this song. The last line:
Happy (C) Date of Birth (G-7) to (C) You
You can of course play the song in other keys on your ukulele. I will give you more to play a key the song in.
I'll do a small conversion table for use to play a song in D-major. First you get the strings in D major:
D: 02/04 02/03 02/02 0 / 1
It will use the chord A7:
A7: 0 / 4 1 / 3 0 / 2 0 / 1
and finally G-major:
G: 0 / 4 2 / 3 3 / 2 2 / 1
In order to play Happy Birthday To You in the key of D you have to replace line as follows:
C becomes D
G-7 A7 becomes
F becomes G
This key change will the opportunity to sing in a tone slightly higher. Of course there are more keys you can use. We have different preferences key because of our personal abilities, singing but these keys are good for an untrained voice at least.
Now you can play the ukulele chords to the song Happy Birthday To You in two keys!
There are many opportunities for you to play this song. Rote learning is a line at a time and you will be able to play the song wherever there is a ukulele.
