One of my favorite songs, lately, for some reason :)
How long have you been playing uke? And how do you figure out your arrangements, if you don't mind me asking? I guess I'm just asking about your musical background....
@carleyhart1 I started playing ukulele in 2008, but I had played guitar for almost 20 years before that.
Most of my arrangements are created from lead sheets -- this one took some Real Book lead sheet as a starting point.
The process of arranging starts by learning the chords and melody as units. Then I start playing the melody using harmonies when possible/needed. I prefer not to annotate anything, so the arrangement evolves "naturally".

As a tip: learn all your chord inversions.
Best.
