Tuning: G C E A

Getting Better - The Beatles (Sgt. Peppers) This song is perfect for ukulele because it uses a high G "drone" string throughout. For the verses: G = 0232 C = 0433 Suggest playing G using a barre on the 2nd fret across the C E A strings plus the middle finger on the 3rd fret of the E string. Then, where C follows a G chord, slide the barre up to the third fret and simultaneously hammer on the middle finger on the 4th fret of the C string. For the chorus and other parts: C = 0003 Fsus2 = 0010 Em = 0432 [Intro]
