Aloha uke friends!
This Ukulele Tab tutorial for Happy Birthday is designed to walk you slowly through the basics of reading tab. You will be fingerpicking the melody of Happy Birthday - be patient, the coordination of left-hand fretting and right-hang picking can take a while to figure out.
Practice 5 minutes a day, give your brain time to absorb it, and have fun with it!
xo cynthia.

Cynthia is the best ukulele teacher on KZread by taking the time explaining and demonstrating the very basic to beginners instead of assuming everyone knows the basic. Thank you.

True but it doesn’t help when you get told it’s someone’s birthday and you have to learn the song in 2 min. Rlly unhelpful in my situation but really good in other

So true
Cynthia you are definitely a very good ukulele teacher. You teach at the good pace, stress the significant points, and repeat where and when necessary, just like face to face teaching. You are very centered on what you need to emphasize as it goes. Thank you very much for this video and another two videos I have watched, Your first ukulele lesson and How to Strum the ukulele.
You are an amazing teacher Cynthiai!! I appreciate how you clearly demonstrate the chords physically, slowly and with verbal cues multiple times.

Thank you Cynthia. Just got my uke at Christmas. First song I have played with actual notes :) Have time to practice for the next birthday for one of my grandchildren. I appreciate the lessons so much.
OMG! I have never played a ukelele song before, learned this in less than 30 minutes. Thanks so much

Do you have the strumming pattern please.
LOVE! Love! LOVE! you and this video so much! New uke player at 64 years old. I'm having a blast!
I've been looking for someone just like you. Your style is perfect for beginners. There are other channels that show beginners 2-4 chords but once they start playing they go straight into the song as though you've been playing for years. I don't think they get the concept of beginner but you do and I really appreciate it. Your step by step is perfect especially when you break it down chord by chord and then build into the song.

I am just a beginner but feel you are soo easy to understand and follow. Thank you so much for making all of your wonderful tutorials God Bless you for helping us all..
Can I just say I watched like 10 videos trying to figure out how to play myself happy birthday by tomorrow and this was the best one I saw and the most easy to follow! Mahalo!!

Best ukulele tutorials I've found so far! I love how clear everything is. Thank you so much for posting these videos! I can't wait to surprise my dad with the new things I've learned. c:
That's a beautiful ukulele. Also I love how you always seem so calm and peaceful in your videos lol. Ukulele can be very therapeutic. :)
The best I have seen. Lots of passion and patience into her tutorials
Hi Cynthia. I really appreciate how you explain slowly and oh my God you have so much patience ... you are truly a blessing!! Thank you so much!
Thank you!!! This is the first song that I can play that actually sounds like it should!
Thank you Cynthia In my 6 months of learning slowly and practising avg 20 minutes per day every day, this is the first instruction that has got me to understand how to read tabs.
Thank you! You are a great teacher and the number style on the chord is the best, so easy to follow. Been practicing for quite sometimes but having difficulty changing the fingers while looking at the chart. This Happy Birthday is the 1st ever complete song I played in my Ukelele and I loved it...will look forward to viewing your other videos on this. God bless!
Thank you for this wonderful tutorial, Cynthia! I borrowed a ukulele so I could learn the Happy Birthday song for my granddaughters. You are so clear and patient in your teaching, and you make it so much fun. Many thanks!
Wonderful teacher. I watch her videos over and over to fine tune my beginner's technique.
Thanks for excellent tutorial. You are a great teacher
This is very hepful. And so good for a beginner like me. I saw other tutorials and i didnt get it, until i found this video and was able to sing the whole song and record it to greet my my sis in law, its her bday today. Thank you so much 💛❤ God bless you!
This was lovely! Thank you, Cynthia for all your tutorials!
Yes! Now I can play this for everyone I know! Thank you Cynthia!
This was so helpful thank you so much!!!
Thank you so much for this tutorial!!! I thought that these kind of tabs were so difficult to learn but with your help it is very easy. 😊😁
THANK YOU Cynthia !!! I enjoy your lesson a lot!
That was so easy to learn! You're a great instructor, thank you!!
Thank you sooooo much for being the best teacher in KZread😄 i learn a lot of ukulele stuff from you😌
omg never picked up a uke in my life and I have now absolutely nailed happy bday best vid ever
Hi my special teacher, thank you for teaching me to play Happy Birthday. I am a learner to ukulele and I will be playing to my mum who will be 90 years on September 15th. In front of family and friends , mum has no idea. Love your fantastic technique of teaching thank you. I am trying to learn lots of other songs too. You are the best XPatricia
Thank you for this wonderful tutorial, Cynthia! For being so patient, good explaining. Thank you once again.
I just bought my ukulele last week and thanks to you I can play Happy Birthday without messing up. Thanks so much. I will move on to one of your other tutorial ukulele songs . Keep up the good work.
Thank you for sharing with us this easy-to-follow tutorial. You are an amazing teacher!
Thank you so much!! This was so fun to learn, very easy and at the same time so beautiful melodic. 🙏🏻❤️
You are an amazing teacher. The explanation of how to read Tab was very clear and helpful. I highly recommend this video for beginner ukulele players.
Such a great tutorial for a song with just your basic chords. Great teacher you are, Cynthia. Thanks you.
Great to learn a song while seeing a tab. I’ve watch several beginning videos and you were the first to include the tabulation while playing. Extremely helpful. Mahalo
I have been really enjoying learning to play the ukulele with your tutorials, and I was especially pleased to get this email in time to learn how to play this song for my birthday. Thanks so much for your amazing videos!
Wow this is so helpful! I got my ukulele today and my mom's birthday is in two days so this is so much more helpful and encouraging to a beginner than being depressed if you can't get the chords right away (which I know will take time but still). Thank you so much! I'm going to print out the tab chart and practice
So cute... and great practical teaching too m! Thank you! I’m a 68 yr old beginner!
Thank you soooo much for this tutorial! It really helped me out learning the basics of picking!! 💕
