Today we are going to learn how to play "Billie Jean" by Michael Jackson on the Ukulele. This classic song has many great covers on a ton of instruments floating around youtube, you can even find the late Chris Cornell of Soundgarden singing a cover! The groove is what makes the song so we will walk you through the progression strum from strum with all the chords and chord tabs on the screen. Of course we will show you how to play the iconic bass riff as well so if you are playing it with two ukuleles you will be able to nail it as well. The bass will have some tabs on the screen, we will also show you how to play the principal riff on a low G ukulele as well so you can get a little more depth to it and have an overall more rounded sound. Everything you need to learn to play this song, and everything you need to play a version with friends if that has some polyphony guaranteed to impress if that is what you want to do!
