In this lesson, ukulele, learn to play an easy American melody. You do not need to know the scores, but instead learn to use notation of ukulele tab easier. I'll show you how to put your fingers on your ukulele!

Ukulele tablature will help you put your fingers on the right frets to play a tune or something else on your ukulele. The tab notation I will use the ukulele in this chapter are based on the figures. Each note is represented by two digits. The first issue will tell you which fret to play and the second number indicates the chain.

Let's start with the first line of letters correspondent and ukulele tablature notation:

In a cave in a canyon

12 12 12 03 01 01 01 12

12 means, play the first fret of the second string. The channels are numbered from the string with the highest degree, which is the bottom line when you play. 03 is that you play the third string, it is to play the third string without pressing down a fret.

Continuing with the melody:

excavation of a mine

12 01 31 31 11 01 32

Try using your index finger on his left hand to play notes on the first box, the basic features on the second fret and your ring finger the third fret. This might feel a bit uncomfortable at first, but they help a lot when you get used to.

Deadline for the next line of lyrics

Resided a miner, forty-Niner

32 01 11 11 01 32 01 12

And his daughter Clementine

12 01 32 03 02 32 12

In the chorus you will use the same melody so you only need to repeat the previous track. I will transcribe the melody at your disposal:

Oh my love, oh my love

12 12 12 03 01 01 01 12

Oh My Darling Clementine

12 01 31 31 11 01 32

You are lost and gone forever

32 01 11 11 01 32 01 12

Terrible sorry, Clementine

12 01 32 03 02 32 12

I think the best way to learn this song on your ukulele is to practice online at a time, learned by heart.

If you're interested in learning two very simple agreements you can use if you want to sing the melody or playing with another person, I suggest you use the F major chord and C7 agreement. I will show you the ropes, using the same notation that I used before. The only difference is that you're scraping the four marks for its name to the Agreement:

F-Major: 24 03 12 01

C7: 04 03 02 11

You can start with the F major chord as who sing the song lyrics and change to C7 when it comes to the word "mine." Then go back to F-major when it comes to "teeth" in Clementine.

The names of the agreements depends on how you set your ukulele, but no matter, as long as they do not play with other instruments. If re-define the names ukulele chords as their first string must be an A, the second one E string, third string C and the fourth string a G.

When playing the chords you can use the same fingerings that I mentioned for the melody. If you could find someone else to play the ukulele with you, I guess I have a good time!
