Doing some of that good ol' classic rock vibes with Journey. What a cool band and a great song with a killer groove, a fun intro and a massive sounding solo. We are going to break down the intro riff, chords, strum pattern, and all the sections of the song so you can sing along with your friend and play all the cool parts on the ukulele.   

The song is in the key of D and the time signature is 6/8, there are some fun non-diatonic chords, well, actually one 1, the C chord that is thrown in the intro for added tension. The song is in 6/8 so you would count it 1 2 3 4 5 6 just like that, with the emphases on the 1 and the 4. When playing the intro riff simply treat the hammer on and pull off on the 4th beat as a single 8th note, this will help you keep time. The solo is in D major so if you are jamming with a friend improvising in D major pentatonic with fast legato phrases and a fair amount of bends will get you really close.   

So there you have it folks, how to play Lights by Journey on the ukulele with all the tabs, lyrics, strum pattern, chords and everything you need to make a really fun cover.
