    Hello, I am trying to learn Seasick Dream by Jack Johnson. Found chords and finger picking intro but I am a little confused as I am relatively new to UKE. The riff is a G7sus2 fingerpicked, G7 fingerpicked and then a G Chord but from what I read it looks like a finger picking riff but the the note says Hold chord and focus on these notes. Can anyone tell me what they are saying. Not sure if I am fingerpicking it or strumming.

    It is a little difficult to tell what exactly your question is about whith that snippet alone. Could you post a link to the tab / tutorial you are working with and specify the section giving you a hard time again? It might be possible to work it out from there.

    Sir_Anzalot,
    Just saw your reply. Appreciate. I have attached the front page of what I am working with. The area of issue is the bottom right hand corner. G Chord Riff. Dont understand where they say Hold chorus and focus on these notes.

    I think what they mean is finger the chord with your left hand, but just play the riff. It’s a bit misleading, because that’s most likely what you’d do if they said nothing at all.

    The link above is my cover of Jack’s Seasick Dream.

    I learned the song by ear. Hope this helps a bit.
