The next song we have learned on the ukulele is "Down in the Valley," which also contains two chords, the C (home) and G7 (Away). The kids are working hard to go back and forth between the two chords! They also learned how to strum a little differently for this song. The song has an "odd" feel, which means that we count "1,2,3,1,2,3" like a waltz. Therefore, instead of strumming down-up-down-up like Long, Long, Ago, the students need to strum in a down-up-up pattern to fit the three beat repetition.
