Mainland Songs:
There are so many mainstream songs out there that we could not even start to put a dent in posting all of them, so here are some good places to look for chords to your favorite mainstream songs (the chords for guitar are the same as for ‘ukulele).
How to read the chord charts at the bottom of our song sheets:
Since we have yet to figure how to write chord charts in Word Documents, we have to write chords out like this: C: 0003. The “C” tells you what chord we are showing you, and the numbers show which frets to hold on each string in order: 0 = open G string, 0 = open C string, 0 = open E string, 3 = third fret A string.

liveukuleleHi Nancy,
Just to let you know Slack Key Kid has the chords to “Taropatch Twist”. I e-mailed Uncle Keoki a few days ago to see if it is okay if we posted them on the site. If I don’t hear back from him in a month or so I will assume that it is okay to do so. Keep checking back.

NZ NudgitKia Ora from New Zealand!!
I have been teaching myself the ukulele for just under a year now and am completely addicted and absolutely LOVE IT!! I have just found your website and thinks it is fantastic and want to thank whoever for taking the time to put this all together. It’s brilliant and I’m learning so much. I am wanting to know if anyone can help me find some Hawaiian uke cd’s. I love the sounds of songs I’ve heard but being so far away I haven’t heard any of the songs you have listed with the chords by the Kau’Crater boys and the big Iz. I’ve looked everywhere in NZ and we just don’t seem to have them in stock anywhere and no-one has heard of them. Does anyone know where I can get them?
Cheers
