Beirut Ukulele- The Akara

Thought I'd upload my first video ever on Youtube. It's me playing, not covering, Beirut's "The Akara" on ukulele. I slowed it down at the end so you can see what I'm doing. Hope you enjoy my first video ever.

Just wondering, how are you strumming the ukulele throughout the song? Like down, down, up?

@xH4x00rzx Down up (mute) up down up, up down up, up down up, up down up down up, down up (mute) up down up, up down up, up down up down up down up, up down up, up down up, up down up down up, ddudu, udu, ddudu, udu, ddudu, udu. Something like that. Just listen to what he's doing and follow along.

@aladinsane6773 Thanks Aladin. No, no one is playing another instrument.

I don't know the names of the chords. Sorry. Make sure you're muting the top string on the first two chords.
