Chords
This version is "interpreted" specifically for ukulele. The recorded version
uses guitar power chords which don't translate well to ukulele.
There *are* ways to finger power chords on ukulele, but the fingering is awkward,

major and minor chords in a way that hopefully retains the feel of the song.

[Chorus]
