Around the Bend for the Uke

frankiefirefox · March 2012

Hey guys,
I am a non-music major and I do not play the guitar. However, I have been playing the uke for a little while now. I am dying to learn Around the Bend, but absolutely can not figure it out! I've seen the guitar tabs, but its like reading greek... Can anyone help?

find a reliable site that has the chords - maybe a few sites actually, to compare.

if you are not sure how to play the chords you find, visit these sites:

I'm actually pretty active on ukulele underground. No one on the forums had answers, but one guy suggested 10club. A major problem is that I can't find a good site with the chords.

Huh, yeah only TAB online that I can find. I really like Chordie.com, because if they have guitar chords, there's a menu you can swap a song over to Uke chords!

Hmm, bet I could draft that quick enough later this week.... That'd be a good song to add to my binder!

Hmm, not quite as easy as I thought... first part? Prolly don't need to hold the chord on the second strum, just play the A on 10th so you have chord, pluck, chord, pluck, chord, pluck, chord...

A---9--10---9---0--4---7---5--
E--10--10--10

2

2--
C---9---9---9

4

G--11--11--11

But the melody is there on the A string: 9, 10, 9, open, 4, 7, 5? Now for the chorus...
