Songs About Dreaming

This is a beautiful song to play on your ukulele. The chords may look hard at first, but you will see it’s not too bad.

Bobby Darin had hits with early rock tunes, jazz standards, and later folk and country genres. In his short life he wrote and sang a lot of great music.

The Mama’s and Papa’s loved to sing songs about dreaming, and most of their tunes are perfect for playing on the uke.

The chords aren’t too hard, but there are some fast changes in this 80’s classic. It’s all about getting the strum just right to emulate the rhythm.

It’s not easy to see where the chords change on this link, but if you use your ear you can tell exactly when to change. It is good ear training practice!

This hit was from Billy Joel’s last pop album, a good song but probably not the best to be crossing rivers when dreaming. At least it has easy chords and slow changes.

Pretty easy chords for your ukulele and no fast changes for this popular Katy Perry hit.

This a tune from Elvis’ comeback and Vegas days, before his voice and health took a dive in the 70’s. The song has a similar message to John Lennon’s “Imagine.”

While this song is very easy to play it definitely is not approaching dreams in a pleasant manner.
