Album : Colour It In indie PlayStop



Hi everyone, I've been playing the guitar & uke for a few months now,
and still can't quite get my fingers around the tab for this song,
so here is how I play it on the uke, sounds ok on the guitar too.
This is my first submission so please be kind and of course any input is greatly appreciated!
Play around with your strumming with these chords to get the effect,
its pretty easy once you get into it.
Please bear with this I hope it makes sense! Nothing's perfect but I'm hoping this will do ;)

Intro (down strums):

A F# E E+ (E+ is: add a finger on a high string that sounds right and play the lower strings)
