Also included in this post are accompanying videos to help get you started and practicing these songs of love and friendship!

This video is for standard tuning, but you can skip to the fingerpicking section to get an idea of how to spice it up!

I ask a small price for my custom song sheet PDFs. The PDFs contain all of the information I show in my videos, in an easy-to-digest visual format. They are formatted to print and place in your music binder, or display on your tablet. In addition to showing which chords to play and song lyrics, these sheets also show chord diagrams to support players who are still learning.

Downloadable PDFs include full song lyrics and chord diagrams for your specified tuning.

Certain PDFs include explanations of techniques utilized in the corresponding video.

It takes a lot of time for me to create these resources, and I hope that your support can help me to keep creating more helpful tools for learning music!

Happy practicing!

“Surface Pressure” for Baritone Ukulele

Stephy

I have adored learning this instant classic by Lin-Manuel Miranda. I think everyone has had moments where they felt like Luisa, whom I saw as fighting to understand the distinction between herself the human and her amazing gifts and accomplishments. For me it’s been a long road to see my own validity separately from the value I bring to others. I’ve been reflecting a lot on that concept lately and have seen it start to emerge as a recurrent theme in my life.

It’s been cathartic to learn this song from the movie “Encanto.” I hope my work in creating this song sheet and arrangement helps you to also find a pathway to emotional release.

Page 1 is the song with lyrics and changes, page 2 shows the chord symbols and strumming patterns I’ve used.

Enjoy this blast into my middle school past! “Otherside” is actually quite approachable on the baritone ukulele, using only the G, C, am, em, and F chords. Stylistically, there are some techniques I will show in this video that can help you get this song ready to rock!

“Can’t Help Falling In Love” for Ukulele

Stephy

This was a request – sometimes I get requests for songs that are done by soooo many people, but if you’re particularly drawn to my teaching style, and want to practice your fingerpicking and faster chord changes, this would be a good choice!

The video covers just chords for GCEA tuning, but I have song sheets for both GCEA and Baritone tunings. Both tunings use the C, em, am, F, G, B7, and dm chords.

“Under the Boardwalk” for the Baritone Ukulele

Stephy

I finally distributed instruments to my students! What I’ve learned is, there are SO many great video tutorials out there for the GCEA ukulele. But not really the baritone. There are some introductory lessons, but nearly nothing about how to play easy songs. My guess is that people are assuming players are coming from a GCEA background. However, my students are not. (I didn’t, either.)

So I will be doing everything I can to expand the selection of EASY songs for the baritone uke, particularly songs in G. (Also: It’s really hard to search for songs by key.) With that said, I present to you, “Under the Boardwalk” by The Drifters.

“In the Aeroplane Over the Sea” in C for Ukulele (including Baritone)

Stephy

In this post we have a video and ukulele chord charts for “In the Aeroplane Over the Sea” by Neutral Milk Hotel. This version is in the key of C, as opposed to its original key of G. I recommend trying both keys to see which one fits your voice the best! Even though I can sing in a low range, I felt like I could project a bit better in this higher key.
