Chords for Sweet Georgia Brown (ukulele tutorial by MUJ)

Hey, I'm playing Sweet Georgia Brown written back in 1925 but popularized nowadays by Brother Bones and His Shadows,
the version from 1948 that the Harlem Globetrotters used as the theme song.
I'm going to be playing it straight from the chord charts of the Morristown Uke Jam,
so take the link in the video description, get the chart, and you can play along.
Or, if you're going to be in Morristown, New Jersey, come play along with us in person.
After the song, I'll do a basic tutorial.
Here goes.
_ [F] _
_ [D] _ _ [G] _ [C] _ [F] _ _ [D]
No gal maid has got a shade on Sweet Georgia Brown
[G]
Two left feet but O'Sineef has Sweet Georgia Brown
[C] They all sigh and wanna die for Sweet Georgia Brown
[F] I'll tell you just why, _ [C] [F] you know I don't lie, [A] much
[D] It's been said she knocks them dead when she lands in town
[G] Since she came why it's a shame how she's cooled them [Dm] down
[A] Fellas she can't [Dm] get our [A] fellas she [F] ain't met
Georgia [D] claimed her [G] Georgia named her [C] Sweet [F] Georgia Brown
[D] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ No _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [F] _ _ [C] _ _ [F] _ _
[Db] _ _ [D] gal maid has got a shade on Sweet Georgia Brown
[G] Two left feet but O'Sineef has Sweet Georgia Brown
[C] They all sigh and wanna die for Sweet Georgia Brown
I'll [F] tell you just why, [C] you [F] know I don't lie, [A] much
[D] All those tips the barter slips to Sweet Georgia Brown
_ [G] They buy clothes at fashion shows with one dollar down
[Dm] _ [A] Oh boy, tip your [Dm] hats [A] Oh joy, she's the cat
[F] Who's that [D] mister, thin [G] or sister?
[C] Sweet [F] Georgia Brown
Georgia [D] claimed her Georgia [G] named her [C] Sweet [F] Georgia [Dm] Brown _ _
Fun song!
_ _ Okay, uh, _ the strum, I called it a jazz strum.
Lots of left hand [N] muting, lots of it.
I mean I change it throughout the song but the truth [D] is
it's _
_ _ _ _ [N] what I'm doing with my left hand that makes that sound.
Here's what happens if I leave the left hand pressed down on a D7.
Just [D] like this.
_ _ _ _ _ [G] Right?
And if I [D] squeeze and unsqueeze
you _ _ _ _ [N] can control that entirely with your left hand.
It works especially well of course on chords that go across all four strings.
If you have an open, you know, [C] on a C7
_ three of the strings are open anyway, [F] you're not muting anything.
_ However, in the part of the song, in the middle of the verse
I'll tell you just why I drop my finger down.
Why? _
[C] I [F] don't know.
_ [A] Right?
[F] _ _
_ [A] _ _ You've got your extra [Fm] fingers here, you can just drop them [F] down.
I'll tell you just why.
_ [Ab] _
And just drop it.
Don't drop it down hard.
If you do, you'll [F] play. _
[Cm] _ You know, you don't want to do that.
You just want to mute it.
_ [N] _
Like that.
So you're stopping the sound. _ _ _
Really nothing else funny about this except that in the instrumental bridge
all I'm doing is I'm sliding down.
You can do this in jazz.
It's fun.
You're sort of bending the chord.
_ If you were playing lead guitar, maybe you'd stretch the strings a little bit.
Well, _ on jazz chords, [D] you know, it's no good.
This is the instrumental.
_ I'm going to slide it down. _ _ _ _
_ Right?
It's my D7.
I'm just going to go_
_ [E] _ [D] _ Right?
That's it.
That's all.
I'm doing the same thing with the G7.
Of course, my fingers are dropping off.
And [G] no, I'm not covering all four strings, but [B] it's close enough anyway.
_ _ [Bb] _
[B] _ _ _ And it sounds fun, right?
It's easy.
_ [C] With the C, what I was doing, the C7, the last part there,
_ _ I'm playing on the A string.
Take a watch. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[F] _ [C] So I'm on the first fret.
That's where the C7 is.
And I'm going up to the fifth and the third. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ So it plays a little bit of a lead line.
But it's easy.
It's really, really easy.
And it makes it sound fun.
And it is a fun song.
So that's about it. _
_ The chord changes are [Dm] easy.
The last chord, the only funny chord in this, is an F6.
You know, up here, bar the fifth.
And it just sounds cool.
[F] And when you end a song with a_
Anytime you end a song, you know, a jazz song, on an F,
[Dm] you can go up to an F6, and it's going to sound good.
So I did that there.
Now I'm going to play through _ _
one whole verse, _ very slowly.
So if you have trouble with the strum or with the chord transitions,
you might find it easier to follow along.
For the rest of you, that's it.

Bye!
_ Oh, you're still here.
So I'm going to now play through the song,
the intro included.
Play through one verse, very slowly.
Zoomed in on my left hand.
And if you have trouble with any of the chord changes,
just play along in this slow version.
Here goes.
