Chords for Stay With Me - Sam Smith - Beginner Song Ukulele Lesson

_ _ _ [F] _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ [F] _ [C] _
_ _ _ _ [E] Hey, what's up everybody?
Tyler from [Am] 10 Thumbs coming [Ab] at you with another lesson, alright?
Today we're going to do a song by [C] Sam Smith [B] called Stay With Me, okay?
[D] I would consider
this the ultimate beginner song.
[Eb] If you have your ukulele and you bought it and you're
looking at it and you're going, what the heck?
[D] And you're trying to figure out how to play
it, this is an excellent first song.
Why?
Because we're [Am] using the three _ easiest chords
_ and the song [E] has no strum pattern, alright?
If you listen to it, where [Gb] it becomes extravagant
is in the chorus and all these really nice vocal harmonies.
The song is just a drum [D] beat
and a piano going boom, boom, boom, and that's it.
[Am]
So we're literally playing [C] _ _ a [Ab] song like
that, okay?
So this [B] is the easiest [F] song that we have done [N] to date.
So grab your ukulele,
grab your brain, grab your attention span and follow us on in.
If this is your first
beginner, most beginner [C] song of all time on the ukulele, _ enjoy the first step of your
journey, alright?
If this is [B] not your first step, good job, keep [Am] on walking, keep walking.
Alright, [Ab] let's break it down.
Okay, let's learn [G] the chords first for this beginner,
super easy, super easy beginner song.
[Bbm] [Am] We have an A minor, _ _ the most [D] beginner of all beginners
with beginner chords.
[F] F, which I would consider [C] the third easiest, but [Bb] the transition [Am] from
the A minor to the F is [D] fantastically easy.
And the C [C] major, the second easiest chord,
okay?
So we have the three [Bb] easiest chords, that's really nice.
And the strum pattern
on [Dm] this, there is no strum [Db] pattern [Bb] because you're really kind of emulating the piano
of the song.
So what we're [D] going to do is we're going to play an [Am] A minor chord and we're
going to go _ 1, [Dm] 2, _ _ [D] 3 for the F, _ [C] 4 _ and for the C.
[Gb] So it goes [Am] 1, 2, _ 3, 4 and _ 1, 2, 3, 4 and _ _ _ _
_ okay?
_ _ _ [F] _ _
[C] _ _ And then you pause for a whole [Am] measure. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
1, 2, 3, 4 and [C] 1, [Ab] 2, 3, [Am] 4.
1, 2, 3, 4 and
1, 2, 3, 4. _ _
[F] _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _
_ _ [F] _ _ [C] _ _ Now you see me knocking on [N] my ukulele?
I'm doing that just to help you
keep time.
Now the song has a drum beat in the background [E] and if you really wanted to
get funky, you could add [Am] those knocks in there.
_ [F] _ _ [C] _ _
[Bb] Alright, it sounds kind of [Am] cool.
_ _ [C] _ _ _
_ _ Okay?
[Bb] And
you can even keep [Am] going like, _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Fm] _ [C] _ _ _
_ _ [Ab] okay?
You could do that if you wanted to.
[D] But really, the
only [Am] thing you have to do is go 1, 2, [C] 3, 4 and 1, _ _ _ [Am] _ _
[F] 2, 3, [C] 4 and. _
Now, [Bb] the song has kind
of a gospel feel.
Now this is definitely not a beginner chord or an intermediate chord.
This is an advanced chord, [C] a B [G] diminished.
_ _ [Dm] And you can add this little B diminished [D] because
it kind of goes along with the bass [B] before you go back to the A if you really wanted
to.
Like [Am] 1, [F] 2, 3, _ [C]
4 and 1, 2, [E] 3, [Am] 4.
1, 2, [F] 3, [C] 4 and 1, 2, 3, 4.
And 1, 2, 3, 4.
And 1,
2, 3, [Am] 4.
1, 2, 3, 4 and 1, 2, [A] 3, 4.
But that's not necessary, okay?
[Am] Really what you only
have to be able to do is go 1, 2, 3, 4 and.
_ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _
[F] _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ And that's the whole song, everybody.
Okay.
Stay with me, Sam Smith.
Now you have the [Bb] most easiest of all time beginner super ukulele
[Am] songs.
[Bb] Hope you enjoyed it.
_ [G] _ _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
