Ukulele Christmas Song 3 - The First Noel

The third song we're taking a look at is the first Noel. This has the same kind of feel and strumming pattern as the previous song, and uh we just have a, a little bit faster chord changes in this one, but it's still pretty simple and it can just take just a couple of minutes to learn. So let's have a look at this one again starting with the C, using the chords C, F and G. And we're going to just, just plain once per chord to begin with, this goes. Noel, the angel did say was to set poor shepherds in fields as they lay. Now the really cool thing about this song is that's the chord sequence, no matter how many verses and choruses you do. If you keep going and you sing more lyrics to this song, the chord sequence, the progression is exactly the same, so that's all we need to practise. We had, A C chord to a G. F Then see Then it's just the same cause in a different order, F. See G And see Now if we can, I want us to do 3 strums for every chord. As that chord comes up, as it is written, you just play 3 strums. For example, just that strumming. 3 G. 3 See. 3 See. So let's sing the first couple of verses together and get to that chorus, don't bore us, get to the chorus, of course. Uh, but if this takes a couple of times to get through, just practise that first progression and then add the strumming second. This hand has to know what it's doing before we can add the complexity of a few more strums. Couple of attempts, I'm sure you'll get this straight away. So the C chord starting off there, and let's just have a sing through together if you want to join me, but strum along to me, Ian. 12, the 4. was low. as they lay. No is
