This song is from Bic Runga's 1997 album, "Drive", and is my favourite of hers. I hope you enjoy it.

Hi I really love this song and tried so hard to find this song which playing with Ukulele. Then I found u, if u don't mind can u pls send me the chord and the technic of how to strum the song, coz it sounded beautiful, especially your way of singing. I feel in love with it. I couldn't see the chord probably, am just the beginner for ukulele and willing to learn how to play this song. Please!!!!!...

@porplah Thanks for your comment! I got the chords for this from the Chordie website. YouTube comments doesn't let me put web addresses in, but if you google Sway Bic Runga chords, you'll see it come up (or Ultimate Guitar - that works too). On both of those websites, you can change the key to suit your voice. I transposed down two steps from the original - you can play around with it until you find the best key for your voice. Those sites are both excellent for finding chords. Good luck!

Awesome cover. And awesome uke! (I also have a KoAloha). I'm hoping to do a cover of this song as well, so will post back if it ever happens. Keep up the good work!

@JensterTheGreat It's called "chunking". The best way I can describe it is that your palm hits the strings on the downstroke just after you strum. Check out the video lesson of how to do it on ukuleleunderground . com. It's Uke Minutes no. 23 - click on "Uke Minutes" on the right hand side of the page - there are heaps of great tips there, and no. 23 is a whole lesson on chunking. Hope that helps!
