aloha uke friends!
here's a tutorial for Riptide - only 4 easy chords and the island strum, super fun for a jam and sing-along around the campfire!
for more advanced players, you can try the island strum variation on the verse and the chucking island strum on the chorus. they give the song a lot more rhythm and texture, and make an easy song way more challenging. :)
ps: i totally sang some wrong words, but the lyrics are accurate to vance joy's original

NEWBIE FAQS:
For beginner uke players, I recommend a concert (if you are a smaller person) or tenor (for bigger/taller people or former guitar players). Sopranos are often cheaper but can be more difficult to learn on since they're smaller.
BUDGET STARTER UKES under $100
Kohala concert: [ Ссылка ] (if you spend less than this, the uke might sound like a toy)
Kohala tenor: [ Ссылка ]

NICE STARTER UKES $100- $160

TUNER: Everyone should have a clip-on tuner - they work by vibration so they're more accurate than phone apps.
I like this one: Snark SN-2 [ Ссылка ]
DAILY UKULELE: If you're looking for a book of songs, the Daily Ukulele is a great resource for classic and traditional songs, including Beatles and jazz standards. Daily Ukulele [ Ссылка ]
