All of Me - ukulele chords

One of my favorite jazz standards.  Funny enough, the first version I heard of this song was by punk rock band NOFX.  I think I like it better when Louis Armstrong sings it.  It's a fun piece to play and you can take it in a bunch of different directions.

Thankfully, someone else has done the leg work.  Check out this link to the chords pdf from Doctor Uke.

Enjoy!

When the Saints Go Marching In - ukulele chords

An all around awesome song!  Rumor has it that in New Orleans you'll find some street musicians with signs that read - "$5 for requests - $10 for the Saints".
Above is my rendition with my Mom!  Any musical interest and/or talent that I have comes from her.  Here's the basic chords so you can get started playing it on your own!
By the way, the chord that I use towards the end is a Cdim.  As always, you can find any chord you need right here on the Ukulele Chord Finder.

In the key of G

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,......,,,,,,G
Oh, when the saints
(still on G)
Go marchin' in
(still on G)......................................D7
Oh, when the saints go marchin' in
......................G.........G7..........C
Oh, how I want to be in that number
.....................G...........D7.........G
When the saints go marchin' in



...just repeat and you've got it.  Lots of possibilities in this one for creative variations.  Experiment and have fun!  Happy Uke'n!

Just A Closer Walk With Thee - ukulele chords

One of my favorite gospel songs!  I still remember the first time I heard it when I was about 8 years old.  It was right around the time that White Men Can't Jump came out....if you're at all familiar with the movie, you know that the opening scene features an awesome performance of this song by the Venice Beach Boys.  Do yourself a favor and check it out here on YouTube.  You may also be asking yourself what I was doing watching such a vulgar movie at a very young age.  Well, I have an older sister and brother.  In their defense, it was the edited TV version that we had on a VHS tape.  From the moment that I first heard this tune, I knew it was awesome.  Hope this chord arrangement will be a good guide for you to start jammin' on this one.  As always, if you need to reference a chord, check out the Ukulele Chord Finder (just be sure to switch it to "soprano C" for all of you GCEA players.  Here's a little video of me playing around with it if you need a little guidance.  Enjoy!
