Описание к видео How to play Lua by Bright Eyes on the ukulele

This is a video made by a beginner for a beginner. It goes over the tuning, chords, strumming pattern, and the different sections of the song Lua by Bright Eyes.

There is a capo on the 2nd fret, which shifts all the chords up one full note. That is, once the capo is on, putting your fingers in the standard C chord position now makes a D chord. I will refer to the chords with the actual chord followed by the non-capo equivalent chord position in parentheses, i.e. D(C).

The chords are: D(C), G(F), Em(Dm), Bm(Am), A(G), A7(G7)

The strumming pattern loops in 8 beats, where each beat could be considered one up or down strum at a regular rhythm. Strumming pattern:
1- down (emphasis on top string)
2- miss up
3- down (hit all strings, emphasize this beat)
4- miss up
5- miss down
6- up (emphasis on bottom strings)
7- down (emphasis on bottom strings)
8- up (emphasis on bottom strings)
(repeat, switching chords if necessary)
