Hello ukulele players! I originally submitted this as a guitar tab
but UG automatically added my submission to their ukulele tabs.
I now edited it a little and hope it works for ukulele, too.
The tuning of the original recording is somehow in between keys but
- as has been pointed out in a comment - it is most likely played
using A major shapes.
