Download here: You Are My Sunshine Chords
A classic singalong tune, You Are My Sunshine was first recorded in 1939, and is a great one for beginner ukulele players.
Although it’s in a different key, I’ve linked to the lovely Elizabeth Mitchell version – a quick YouTube search will reveal hundreds of others!
Strumming
I normally suggest uke players stick to a simple, steady down-up-down-up strum:
1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +
d u D u d u D u
If you like, you can put a slight emphasis on beats 2 and 4, which adds a bit of interest and makes the rhyhthm bounce a bit more.
