100 Days of Ukulele Learning #2 - Homesick

Hi Guys!

Here is my 2nd day of learning ukulele, and am (trying to) playing Homesick by Dua Lipa, with Chris Martin (from Coldplay)

Made tons of mistakes in the couple of tries I did. I like this song much, so will have to revisit this in the future :)

I have a raspy voice, so some parts I sounded like I am a smoker :P

And also, a treat for you should you check out this vid is that my lovely kiddies can be heard yelling and shouting in the background, a daily occurrence in this house whenever they are playing games lol

I still have stiff fingers, suck at memorizing keys/chords, not too fond on the hurting fingers, and do not know how to strike the string nicely, so yeah, LEARNING as I go lol Be patient with me :P

Here is the lyric to Homesick, by the way!

Here, where the sky's falling
I'm covered in blue
I'm running and I'm crawling
Fighting for you
When the rain stops
Then, darling, what will I do
And I know I go all in
But why do I
You give me a reason
Something to believe in
I know, I know, I know
You give me a meaning
Something I can breathe in
I know, I know, I know
It's a bittersweet feeling
Longing and I'm leaving
I go, I go, I go
But I wish I was there with you
Oh, I wish I was there with you
There's a crack in my window
A bird in my room
Angels all over
That watch over you
When I'm walking on water
All my dreams have come true
Still, nothing means nothing
Without you, you
You give me a reason
Something to believe in
I know, I know, I know
You give me a meaning
Something I can breathe in
I know, I know, I know
It's a bittersweet feeling
Longing and I'm leaving
I go, I go, I go
Tell my heart to lie
But I know deep inside it's true
That I wish I was there with you
That I wish I was there with you
Oh, I wish I was there with you
You give me a reason
Something to believe in
I know, I know, I know
You give me a meaning
Something I can breathe in
I know, I know, I know
It's a bittersweet feeling
Longing and I'm leaving
I go, I go, I go
Tell my heart to lie
But I know deep inside it's true
That I wish I was there with you
That I wish I was there with you
Oh, I wish I was there with you
