You are my sunshine! This is considered a Ukulele standard by many Ukulele players and it is an easy beginner song that you will probably hear in Ukulele groups, Ukulele summits, and Ukulele jams. I taught the song in the Key of C, which I believe is the most beginner. This means the chords are C, F and G. Jimmie wrote the song in the Key of F, which uses F, Bb and C, which has a barre chord and Johnny Cash plays the song in the key of A, which has A, D and E. Of the three keys it seemed like C was the best for teaching the beginners, but feel free to change the key to match your voice or your favorite recording of the song. This song is mean to give you the base and show you how to space the harmony, the melody and learning how to sing it is going to be up to you! \r
