Daily Ukulele Songs Listed by Number of Chords and Their Keys
Daily Ukulele (“the yellow book”)
Songs Listed by Number of Chords and Their Keys
What are you up to playing today? If you only want songs with a few chords—or you only want songs, say,
in the key of F—this is a great resource. Listed below are all of the songs in The Daily Ukulele (the yellow book version, volume 1) listed by the number of chords in the song (oodles of them only have two or
three) as well as the keys the songs are presented in. The contents here were compiled from a spreadsheet
thoughtfully created by Ukulele Underground member STMace. I sorted based on number of chords and
alphabetized the results.
Now, just because a song shows as being played in a certain key, it doesn’t mean it has to be played that
way forever and always. Yep, you can change the keys to ones that are easier for you to play or sing. Just
use your fingers to “count” up or down—or download the handy-dandy transposing wheel on my website,
