Hi, I'm Ben from ukuleleroadtrips.com. It's a website maybe you should visit.
It's fun!
Travelling, adventures
In the meantime, perfect day [F#] to learn a song by Anne Chiran.
How about the song Perfect?
I [G] found a love [Em] for me
Darling [C] just dive right in
And follow [D] my lead
[F#] So follow my lead and make sure [C] your uke is in tune.
[F#] That'll do.
And oh, by the way, to make your life easier [E] and to support me, you can download the PDF for this song with [F#] the chords, the strum, the lyrics, the lyric [N] placement and all those kind of things.
So as he says, let's dive right in.
And you need four chords to play the song.
You need G, [C] E minor, C [D] and D.
So G [G] is open, second, third, second.
E minor [Em] is open, fourth, three, two.
Make sure all the strings ring [G#] nicely while you play the chord.
When [C] you practice C, everyone knows C.
[D] And D, second, second, [A] second, open.
You can either play D with [F#] three fingers like this, one, two, three on the second fret and the last string open.
Or just one finger all the way across these three [D] strings.
Just make sure all the strings ring nicely.
And [F#] that's all the chords you need for this song.
How lucky.
Now, before [F] we dive in, actually, into the song, let's have a [G#] look at the rhythm.
The rhythm is quite slow.
It's like this.
One, two, four.
And [F#] there's four beats per chord.
So one, four for G, four for E minor.
You [G#] get the idea.
But inside these beats, one, two, what's happening is that you've got one, two, three, four.
So you've got [E] three [F] tiny beats inside the main beats.
And we're going to play them all downstrokes like this.
[G] [Em]
[G#m] Or you can play them with your fingers, not [G] necessarily with your thumb.
One, two, three, four.
With a bit [G#] more of a strength effect.
Or to sound more like the [B] original song, you can strum it like this.
[G#] By plucking the strings, all four at the same time, with these four [G] fingers.
Going like this.
And do this sort of one, two, four.
[Em] One, two, three, four.
[F#] Make sure the one, two, three, one, two, three.
Make sure the one [G#] is always stronger than the two, three.
[A#] So you have a one, two, three.
One, two, three.
[F#] And that really gives it that romantic ballad feel.
The verse.
So these four chords.
[G] This strum.
[Em]
[C] [D]
Do [Am]-do-do-do-do-do.
Same thing again with different lyrics.
[D#] Then we arrive to the chorus.
[Em]
[C] And here, instead of D, [G#] just this one, we go G-D.
Time.
[D] [G] Darling, just kiss [C] me slow.
So instead of having [D] time on a D, [G] four beats, we have [D] G, two beats, and D, two beats on [G] time.
You see?
One, two, time.
Darling, just kiss me slow.
[Em] Your heart is all I own.
[C] And in your sea.
As you're [D] holding my hand.
Baby.
Chorus.
And in the chorus, instead of going [F#] G, E minor, C, D,
we're going to play E minor, C, G, D.
Okay?
E minor, C, G, D.
So that's
C, G, D.
It's written here.
Anyway.
And baby, I'm dancing in the dark.
The [D] baby is this sort of
moment in the [E] air.
And I'm is on the E minor.
[C] I'm dancing.
Okay, I'll show you again.
[D] It goes
Holding my [A] [C] baby.
C.
Dancing in [G] the dark.
[D] With you, but deep [Em] between my E minor arms.
[C] Bell putsy [G] on the grass.
G.
[D] Listening [Em] to our favourite song.
[C] When you see
said you [G] look at me.
[D] I whispered D [Em] underneath my E minor breath.
[C] But you heard it.
[G] Darling, you [D] look perfect tonight.
And at the [F#] end, after D, E minor, C,
we get G, D, G.
Okay, that's the chorus.
[G#] And there's a little riff after the chorus.
[G] If you like, you can do.
It's [G#] one beat per chord.
And [D] it goes
[Em] G, D, E minor, [C] D, C.
Two beats.
[D] C, two beats.
[Em] [C] [D]
[E] Let's do that again.
[G#] One beat per chord means one, two, three.
So G, D, D, D, D, D, E minor, D, [Fm] C.
Twice.
And [C#]
[G] then [C] [D]
[G] back to the second verse.
[E] And that is the same thing again, really.
[F#] Verse is G, E [F] minor, C, D.
There you go, that's all there is [E] to it.
Make sure in the [F#] song, if you want to give it a nice feel,
to really let the vocals dominate your playing.
So they're the ones who are supposed [F] to grab the limelight and the [F#] emotion.
It's not really a song where you'll be too busy with your right hand.
But you want to just let yourself express to [G#] your prom date [C] how perfect they are.
[G] [D] [Em]
[B] Well, [G] [C] I hope you enjoyed this tutorial.
Remember, you can get [D#] the PDF if you like.
And have a perfect day.
[F#] Hopefully you can also sing this song perfectly.
And have a perfect date,
It's fun!
