Jingle Bell
Ukulele Chords: Jingle Bells
Jingle Bells is one of the most popular secular songs of Christmas in the world. You will learn the chords of the song and playing the melody in this ukulele lesson!
I will show you how to play the song using ukulele tablature. Tablature is a system musical notation that shows where to put your fingers on your ukulele to play melodies and chords.
The most common type of tablature notation or labels use the lines representing the strings and line numbers to show which frets to press down.
I will use another type of notation the tongue that I call number tabs.
Why cloud number?
1. Number of labels work best article sites and not be distorted if the fonts are changed.
2. Number of tabs makes the information accessible to visually impaired readers using braille.
I'm not going to use lines to represent the strings, but instead of using numbers to strings and frets this way:
fret / string
This means that the first number tells you which fret to press down and the number after the slash which string to use. 1.3 for example means: Press third fret on the first string!
0 / 1 means, play the first string without pressing down a fret! This is called to play an open string.
The first string is the bottom line to play the uke the ordinary way.
These are the first line, C-major, we will use in this song:
C: 0 / 4 0 / 3 0 / 2 3 / 1
In this chord you can see that the chain only to press down the first string but you will play the four chains together.
When you play this chord should pluck the strings of the fourth to the first string with your right hand thumb or index finger or otherwise.
Now we can sing the first line of the song. I put the chord in brackets before the syllable where you are to begin playback. You can strum the chord at a rate even according to your taste:
(C) Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way
To sing the next line and play the chords you need to rope in F major:
F: 2 / 4 0 / 3 1 / 2 0 / 1
And here is the following line:
(F) Oh! what fun it (C) is to mount
On the next line we need the chord D7 and G7:
D7: 2 / 4 0 / 3 2 / 2 0 / 1
G7: 0 / 4 2 / 3 1 / 2 1.2
Here is the following line to play:
In a (D7) a one-horse open (G7) sleigh
Then you have to sing the lyrics, again with slightly different chords:
(C) Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way
(F) Oh! what fun it (C) is to mount
In an open (G7) of a horse (C) sled
Here's the same song with the melody written with ukulele tabs:
Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way
0 / 2 0 / 2 0 / 2 0 / 2 0 / 2 0 / 2 0 / 2 3 / 2 0 / 3 2 / 3 0 / 2
Oh! how fun it is to go
1 / 2 1 / 2 1 / 2 1 / 2 1 / 2 0 / 2 0 / 2
In a one horse open sleigh
0 / 2 0 / 2 0 / 2 2 / 3 2 / 3 0 / 2 2 / 3 3 / 2
Then you have to play the melody once again and change the last line:
In a single horse open sleigh
0 / 2 0 / 2 3 / 2 3 / 2 1 / 2 2 / 3 0 / 3
I suggest you play the melody notes are on the first fret with your finger index, notes on the second fret with your middle finger and the notes on the third fret with your ring finger.
