I have Instagram to thank for introducing me to this song. I asked for suggestions of what to play and this came up. I’m glad somebody did as its such a vibe. I love the guitar work and it translates really well to four strings. Let’s learn to play Texas Sun on the ukulele.
What Are We Learning To Play?
Below is a video of what you will be able to play by the end of this post.Â
Ukulele Tabs
We are opening with two chords. The A minor and then the G major. The strumming pattern is
D-X—U-D-U-X—U-D-U-X— U-D-U-X—U.
I think there might be two guitars playing simultaneously on the original recording. I have picked out the most prominent parts of each one and gelled them both together.
