[A] Hi, Ukulele Mike with a beautiful Hawaiian ballad, [F] White Sandy Beach.
[N] I'm going to be using a finger picking pattern in this song and it's in 4-4 time.
It's a very slow arpeggio pattern and [F] I'm using the thumb, index, and middle fingers.
It's a fairly random pattern that I will be picking.
Let's say, take the F chord for instance.
One way to pick it would be to go [G] P, that's thumb, I, index, M is middle [A] finger.
So it goes P, [F] I, M.
And then alternate, try to alternate your thumb as often as you can
over to the third string.
So it sounds like this.
So I'm going P, I, M, I, P, I, M, I.
[G] And then occasionally what's kind of nice to do is take your thumb, index, and middle
finger and do a roll.
Thumb first, like so.
Each string, one right after the other.
And that fills out the chord so that you're not only playing just single notes.
Every once in a while you actually hear a whole chord sound.
We [Bb] have a B flat chord, [Bbm] B flat minor, [C] we have a C.
Now, on this B flat chord going to B flat minor, the changing note is on the third string.
So I'm going to suggest you play the thumb on the third string on the B [Bb] flat, then go
to [Bbm] B flat minor, [F] then F.
Hear how that descends?
[F] This is on the third string, B [Gm] flat, [Bbm] B flat minor, going to F.
[C]
[N] So, White Sandy Beach.
[F]
I saw you in my dream.
We were walking hand in hand.
[Bb] On a white [Bbm] sandy beach [F] of Hawaii.
We were playing in the sun.
We were having so much fun.
[Bb] On a white [Bbm] sandy beach [F] of Hawaii.
[C] The sound of the ocean [Bb]
soothes my [C] restless soul.
The sound of the ocean [Gm] rocks me all [C] night long.
[F] Those long hot summer days lying there in the sun.
[Bb] On a white [Bbm] sandy beach [F] of Hawaii.
The [C] sound of the ocean [Bb] soothes my restless [C]
soul.
The sound of the ocean [Bb] rocks me all [Am] night long.
[C] [F] Last night in my dream, I saw your face again.
[Bb] We were there in the sun.
[Bbm] On a white sandy beach [F] of Hawaii.
