Hi everyone! I know it's been a really long time since I've done anything ukulele related, and especially a tutorial.

Past simple

I think my last one was... summer? Wow, so it's been a while. Obviously, I'm at school right now

To-infinitive

so it's been very difficult to push out new content, new videos, but I'm back now.

And I have a little bit of free time so I'm gonna teach you how to play a really fun song on the ukulele,

and that song is "Remember Me" from the movie Coco, which is Disney Pixar's new movie.

It came out... a couple weeks ago? Yeah, I saw it the day it came out, and... ah, it touched me.

That's not a good - that's not a good way to put that.

There's a song that recurs throughout the movie, and without spoiling too much...

Yeah, I don't want to give too much background because it's a good movie, and you should just go see it.

I've also transposed this song up a couple steps

because it's easier for me to sing and more importantly easier for me, and you, to play.

So unfortunately this is not the original key, but it's easier, so, yay!

I'm going to play the first verse one time through with the chords up here

so you can play along if you want, and then I'll walk you through it step by step.

♫ Remember me, don't let it make you cry ♫

♫ For even if I'm far away, I hold you in my heart ♫

♫ I sing a secret song to you each night we are apart ♫

So most of this song doesn't have a really specific strumming pattern. In the movie, it's kind of freeform.

The way I've always - I've just been like,

I'm usually doing kind of a down down down, and I'm not even strumming with my with my fingernails,

I'm using my thumb 'cause it's a much softer song. The song is sung as a lullaby in this in this part of the movie,

so yeah, it should definitely have a lullaby-esque sound. Not too harsh.

Obviously I'm not singing in full voice because it's supposed to have that sound, also

it's very high for me. So the first half of the verse is D

Which is super easy! The next part is a little more difficult: Csus2

F#7, which is crazy hard to play. Bm, Csus2

A#, and then Asus4 which is like A but you move

the finger down the second... the second finger down to the second fret.

So you're playing: first and second string are both on the 2nd fret. So the full verse again is:

♫ Don't let it make you ♫ (this is a hard chord)

♫ For even if I'm far away I hold you in my heart ♫

♫ Know that I'm with you the only way that I can be ♫

That part was a little rough because it's a lot of difficult chords in quick succession

so I will break that down to pieces for you, because clearly... yeah.

I'm struggling a little with this song. So the beginning is exactly the same as the first verse which is:

And this is where it changes: we're gonna play an Am7

Which is just this. There's no fingers on the fret board. Favorite chord! And then a D7.

"several chords in quick succession" part. Super fun! And those chords are G, G, F#7, E, Em.

Yeah. I played it a little differently before I played the A afterwards. I think the way that you do is it goes:

D, and A7, and then A are on the beats. Like, they're on the words "arms, again".

Yeah. As far as I know. And then the last line is:

Okay, I hope that was helpful. I know I messed up a lot, but I'm a little rusty.

I'm getting... I'm getting back into it. If you have any questions, please put them below.

The tab will be in the description because

yeah, you will need that as you play. Anyway. Thank you so so much for watching.
