The Guardians of the Galaxy soundtrack strikes again. Today we are breaking down Glenn Campbell's take on Southern Nights, with the tasty intro riff tabbed out and everything. It is tricky to jam and sing this because of the syncopation but take it slow and you'll get it. You'll have to tune the song down a half step to match the original recording, enjoy the jamming!

Glenn Campbell - Southern Nights - Ukulele tutorial with tabs

New Ukulele Tutorials every Wednesday and Saturday subscribe and learn Today we are going to learn how to play "Southern Nights" by Glenn Campbell on the Ukulele. This is a pretty easy song to play in terms of Ukulele chords and chord progression, nothing to tricky chord wise. The song is all syncopation, which means up strokes, which can be tricky to play and sing at the same time. The intro riff is also epic and a blast to play on the Ukulele and a great place to kick of the party, plus when it comes back in as a break it sounds even tastier! According to wikipedia the lyrics of "Southern Nights" were inspired by childhood memories Allen Toussaint had of visiting relatives in the Louisiana backwoods, which often entailed storytelling under star-filled nighttime skies. When Campbell heard Toussaint's version, he immediately identified with the lyrics which reminded him of his own youth growing up on an Arkansas farm. In October 1976, Campbell recorded the song with slightly modified lyrics.

Gladiator, Master and Commander are both pretty amazing. I loved Daft Punk's Tron soundtrack! <3

Do it!! Even if you don’t like the movie (which I thought was pretty good) the music is good. ^_^
