Am Chord – 2000Īnother very easy chord, which requires only one finger (preferably the middle finger) on the second fret of the g-string. By simply adding 5 more chords to your collection, you will be able to play thousands of songs. If 3 chords are more than enough to play hundreds of songs on your ukulele, it’s also rather limited. One notch harder now with this 3-finger chord: index finger on the second fret of the third string, middle finger on the second fret of the first string, and ring finger on the third fret of the second string. With this finger position, it is very easy to change from C chord to F, because they don’t require the same fingers. Now, for this chord, we need two fingers: the index finger must be placed on fret 1 of the second string, and the middle finger on fret 2 of the fourth string. It is recommended to use the ring finger of the left hand to play this chord, as it will make it easier to change to another chord later. The most basic chord just requires one finger on the third fret of the first string. They correspond to degrees I, IV and V of the C major scale. The first 3 chords you should learn are C, F and G. A same chord can be played in a different way according to the musician, but also according to the previous or next chord in the song, though this is a bit of an advanced topic for a beginner. Learning a string instrument such as the ukulele is based a lot on memorizing patterns and figures which form chords, scales, and chord progressions. When it comes to learning chords, it is important to know not only the notes (frets on each string) but also the fingering (what fingers to put on each string).
