Hey there, welcome to [C#m] You Can Uke [G] and today I want to teach you how to play the song Rude by Magic.
So grab your ukulele, make sure it's in the standard tuning of G, C, E, A, [C] [Am]
and let's [G] get crackin'.
So the original recording of this song was in the key of C sharp major, but to make this lesson very simple
we're gonna play in the key of C.
If you still want to play in the original recording of C sharp major,
what you could do [C] is grab a ukulele capo, put it on the first fret, and then start to apply the chords that I'm about
to teach you right now.
Okay, so there's four chords that we're gonna need to know how to play in order to play the song Rude.
And those chords are [F] F, [G] G, [C] C, and [Am] A minor.
Now if you know how to play all four of those chords, then that's really awesome.
And what I would suggest is for you to jump ahead to the later portion of this lesson.
[N] So the first chord that we're learning today is F major.
And to play F, you're gonna take your first finger
and press the second string of the first fret, then take your second finger and press the fourth string on the second fret.
[F] This is F major.
[C] The next chord we're gonna learn to play is G.
And to play G, you're gonna take your first finger,
press the third string of the second fret, take your second finger, press the first string of the second fret,
and take your third finger and press [G] the second string of the third fret.
This is G.
The next chord we're going to learn to play is C.
It's pretty easy.
All you do
is take your third finger [C] and press down the first string of the third fret.
This
is C.
[Am] And the last chord we're going to learn for today is A minor.
And to play A
minor, you take your second finger and you press down on the fourth string of
the second fret.
This is A minor.
Now the chord progression for this [N] song is
really simple.
In fact, it repeats throughout the whole song.
And it's going
to be [F] F, which is played for four beats.
Then you got G for another four [G] beats.
[C] C
for another four beats.
And A minor [D] for [Am] four beats.
[F] Let's try it, shall we?
One, [G] two,
three, four.
One, [C] two, three.
One, two, three, [Am] four.
One, two, three.
[F]
[G] [C] One, two, three.
[Am]
One, two.
Awesome.
Now that's not only
the chord progression of the song, but when we [F] rang out those chords, we were
actually playing the rhythmic strumming pattern for the pre-chorus.
So just know
that in the pre-chorus of this song, we're going to down-strum each chord one
time and hold each chord for four beats.
Speaking of strumming patterns, I want to
teach you the strumming pattern for the verse and the choruses now.
You're going
to tap once, then you're going to go down, up.
So it's going to sound like this.
Tap,
down, up.
Tap, down, up.
Tap, down, up.
Tap, down, up.
Tap, down, up.
Tap, down, up.
Tap, down, up.
Tap, down, up.
One, two, three, four.
One, two.
[N] Great.
Let's try it now with the chord progression that we have.
Oh, and by the way, whenever you're
switching chords on this chord progression, you're going to be switching
from each chord on every other tap.
That way, it will give you a lot of time to
set up before you play the chord on the down-up strum.
So it's going to look
something like this.
[F] Tap, down, up.
Tap, [G] down, up.
Switch.
[C] Switch.
[Am] Switch.
[F] Tap, down, up.
Tap, down, [G] up.
Switch.
[C] Switch.
[Am] Switch.
Alright, [C] I think we're doing pretty good on this lesson.
So let's take everything
[G#] that we've applied and play through.
[F] [G] [C]
[Am] [F] [G] [C]
[Am] [F] [G] [C]
[Am] [F] [G] [C]
[Am] [F] [Am] [G] [C]
[F] I [C] know that you're [G] an old [C]-fashioned man.
[Am] [F] Can I have your daughter [G] for the rest of my life?
[C] Say yes, say yes, [Am] because I need to know.
You [F] say I'll never [G] get your blessing till the day [C] I die.
Tough love, [Am] my friend, but the answer is [F] no.
And why you [G] gotta be so [C] rude?
[Am] Don't you know I'm [F] human too?
Why you [G] gotta be so [C] rude?
I'm [Am] gonna marry her [F] anyway.
Marry that girl.
[G] Marry her anyway.
[C] Marry that girl.
[Am] Yeah, no matter what they say.
[F] Marry that girl, [Gm] and we'll be a family.
[C]
[Am] And why you gotta be so [F] rude?
[G] [C]
[Am] Why you gotta be so [F] rude?
[G] [C]
[Am] [F] Now it's obvious that I didn't play through the whole song, but if you want to play through the entire length of Rude, then what I would suggest is go to my description box and click on the link that has the whole chord chart available to you.
And there you have it.
That's how you play Rude by Magic.
Thanks so much for watching this video.
Keep practicing, and remember, you can uke.
[N]
So grab your ukulele, make sure it's in the standard tuning of G, C, E, A, [C] [Am]
and let's [G] get crackin'.
So the original recording of this song was in the key of C sharp major, but to make this lesson very simple
we're gonna play in the key of C.
If you still want to play in the original recording of C sharp major,

Now if you know how to play all four of those chords, then that's really awesome.
And what I would suggest is for you to jump ahead to the later portion of this lesson.
[N] So the first chord that we're learning today is F major.
And to play F, you're gonna take your first finger
and press the second string of the first fret, then take your second finger and press the fourth string on the second fret.
[F] This is F major.
[C] The next chord we're gonna learn to play is G.
And to play G, you're gonna take your first finger,
press the third string of the second fret, take your second finger, press the first string of the second fret,
and take your third finger and press [G] the second string of the third fret.
This is G.
The next chord we're going to learn to play is C.
It's pretty easy.
All you do
is take your third finger [C] and press down the first string of the third fret.
This
is C.
[Am] And the last chord we're going to learn for today is A minor.
And to play A
minor, you take your second finger and you press down on the fourth string of
the second fret.
This is A minor.
Now the chord progression for this [N] song is
really simple.
In fact, it repeats throughout the whole song.
And it's going
to be [F] F, which is played for four beats.
Then you got G for another four [G] beats.
[C] C
for another four beats.
And A minor [D] for [Am] four beats.
[F] Let's try it, shall we?
One, [G] two,
three, four.
One, [C] two, three.
One, two, three, [Am] four.
One, two, three.
[F]
[G] [C] One, two, three.
[Am]
One, two.
Awesome.
Now that's not only
the chord progression of the song, but when we [F] rang out those chords, we were
actually playing the rhythmic strumming pattern for the pre-chorus.
So just know
that in the pre-chorus of this song, we're going to down-strum each chord one

Speaking of strumming patterns, I want to
teach you the strumming pattern for the verse and the choruses now.

Tap, down, up.
Tap, down, up.
Tap, down, up.
Tap, down, up.
Tap, down, up.
One, two, three, four.
One, two.
[N] Great.
Let's try it now with the chord progression that we have.
Oh, and by the way, whenever you're
switching chords on this chord progression, you're going to be switching
from each chord on every other tap.
That way, it will give you a lot of time to
set up before you play the chord on the down-up strum.
So it's going to look
