How to use guitar chords on a ukulele

Notes & tabs for this lesson: songnotes.net/tips/20

In this lesson, I'm excited to demonstrate how all of the guitar chord shapes you already know can be used on a ukulele - allowing you to play many of the songs you already know. I'll explain how this is the case, how to translate 6-string chords on to a 4-string instrument, and talk about some of the differences in pitch you'll need to understand. If nothing else, I want you to realize that applying your guitar skills to a ukulele is something that's likely much easier than you ever thought it would be.
