I found this song earlier this year (yes, a little late here on the mainland) and it quickly became one of my favorites. Written by Ben Vegas of 5:05.

This is my own arrangement and my first. I'm pretty proud of how it came out.

The original song modulates up to C# (not a uke-friendly key) from C, and with some guidance from Jon Prown (ukejon) I figured it out. He suggested to just go up to D. It's a little harder to play all the way up there but I tried.

Played on my Dave Talsma custom walnut and cedar tenor with southcoast strings.
