rickeymikeMember1st and foremost, this song is dedicated to Anne and Tom. I chose this song because of its feel good nature and its hopeful message. Hope you like it , Anne.
Secondly, I have been working on this song since April when I first found and downloaded the leadsheet. With the help of our Reading Course, I began transposing the leadsheet onto a blank ukulele tab sheet. With a couple of skype lessons with Stephen, we went over my transposition to tabs and then discussed how to incorporate chords to my basic single notes transposition. So here is my finished product, 2+ months in the making. ha.
I know it’s pretty simplistic chord melody but I did it myself. I would really appreciate some feedback and suggestions for making it better. If you like the song, I will gladly share my rudimentary tab arrangement. One thing though, I don’t know how to write measures or to indicate length of notes in tab form. And my blank tab sheets did not have a regular staff bar to place the notes in standard form. What I did was to write the lyrics under each note/tab. Since I knew the song well, that was pretty much all I needed to stay on rhythm.July 5, 2019 at 11:21 am #28696
