Piano Man, Billy Joel, for fingerstyle ukulele

My ukulele take on my favorite Billy Joel song, Piano Man. Mostly figured out by ear, but I used the sheet music for the more insane piano parts. Like the solo, which I wanted to punch in the face.

It's not perfect, but I hope you like it anyway! Sorry for the buzzy microphone.

Nice work. Lovely cover of one of my favouritist songs ever.

I can just about string the chords to this together, but wouldn't have a prayer of picking the melody so I am in awe. Hell, I struggle picking Happy Birthday.

Much kudos!

@ShiftySquirrel aww, thanks! and I bet you can pick out happy birthday like a FIEND!

@austinlove1 sadly, yes. :P but It's not quality stuff like this. But I'm totally working out an arrangement based on the piano version I know :D thanks for the inspiration ^.^
