Reading a ukulele chord diagram

1. The four vertical lines are the strings: G, C, E and A from left to right (as you look at the ukulele facing you).
2. Horizontal lines are frets; the thick line at the top is the nut.
3. A dot shows where to press; a number beside it may show which finger to use.
4. An “0” above a string means play it open.
5. Shapes are often written as four numbers — for example C = 0003 means G, C and E open and the A string at the 3rd fret.

Essential ukulele chords (GCEA)

Numbers are the fret for each string from G (left) to A (right); 0 means open. Some chords have several common shapes — E, for example, is often played 1402 instead of 4442.

Your first four chords

Start with C (0003), Am (2000), F (2010) and G (0232). With just these four you can play hundreds of pop songs, because the progression C–G–Am–F turns up again and again. Practise switching between two chords at a time — C to Am, Am to F, F to G — until each change takes less than a beat, then play all four in a loop with a simple down-down-up-up-down-up strum.

Common chord progressions

Tuning your ukulele

Standard (C6) tuning from the top string is G4–C4–E4–A4, often remembered as “My Dog Has Fleas”. The G string is usually tuned higher than the C string (re-entrant tuning), which gives the ukulele its bright sound; some players use a low G for a fuller bass. Baritone ukuleles are tuned DGBE like the top four strings of a guitar, so the chord shapes in this pack sound different on them.
