“Fallen” is by Pana’ewa, one of the few contemporary local bands to feature the ukulele prominently in the 2000s on their album Homestead.
The picking part played by Justin Centeno that repeats throughout really makes the song tick and the outro solo is one of the most tasteful pieces of uke picking I’ve heard in a modern context.
It’s a pretty simple song and the same chord progression repeats throughout. Each chord gets four beats, but if you’re not sure, just follow the bass. One chord change is on the “doom doom” and the other is on the triplet. Do this twice and you’ll have it down.
