How to play "La Vie en rose" on baritone ukulele! Easy tutorial (mostly)

In this tutorial, I'll show how to play "La Vie en rose" by Edith Piaf and Louiguy (English lyrics by Mack David) on baritone ukulele in the key of G. This song was famously recorded by Louis Armstrong in 1950 and much less famously recorded by me in 2024. I hope you'll check out my new arrangement of the song!

Lyrics:
Hold me close and hold me fast,
This magic spell you cast
This is la vie en rose
When you kiss me, heaven sighs
And though I close my eyes
I see la vie en rose
When you press me to your heart
I'm in a world apart
A world where roses bloom
And when you speak, angels sing from above
Everyday words seem to turn into love songs
Give your heart and soul to me
And life will always be la vie en rose
