L1: 2 Chords 2 Keys


On this site I whole-heartedly recommend various books and materials for becoming a better ukulele player.
Some links are affiliate links and help support my efforts in the form of a few pennies here and there.
Thank you for your support.


CHALLENGE

Earn your Core Chords Level 1 patch by demonstrating the following:

  • Cleanly strum the I–V7 chord sequence in the key of C (C–G7)
  • Cleanly strum the I–V7 chord sequence in the key of F (F–C7)

Level 1 Chords with Diagrams

Although the chords for this level are displayed above, it is also good to own a ukulele chord dictionary for quick reference.

Suggested Songs

Demonstrating the use of these chords in the context of a song is not required to earn the patch, but it makes sense to make this knowledge practical and add a song or two to your Set Lists. Pick at least one for each chord set.

Books of 2 Chord Songs:

Other Songs using F & C7 only . . .

Songs using C & G7 only . . .

Songs that use all 4 of these chords . . .
