Oh my gosh is this ever a fun song to play on the uke you got a friend in me from
Toy Story by Randy Newman I do this with my kids at school
And they request it over and over and over again and in fact the chord progression goes over and over [C] and over again
It's kind of a cyclical progression
Let me take you through the intro and the chords a couple of chords you might not know of course you all know a C chord
_ You have a C7 chord
We have a neighborhood dog here that loves this song too.
We have [F] an F chord _
_ _ _ _ [E] _ [D#m] F diminished 7th these diminished 7ths are so cool
There's only three of them [F] one two and [G] three when you get to the fourth fret
It's the same as the first so [C] this and this are the same.
It's a different inversion of it
Those are diminished sevenths.
They're [G#m] great little chords you find it a lot of the old-timey swing [G] songs and whatnot of the 30s and 40s
