    If anyone is interested in the strumming pattern and the chords together, this is what I was able to understand:
    Without chucks:
    [Gm] - D D
    [Cm ] - DUD
    [D] - U UDUDUDU
    With chucks:
    [Gm] - D X
    [Cm ] - DUX
    [D] - U UXUDUDU
    Watching the video a little slower I saw she changes from Cm to D after the 4th Down or 2nd Chuck.
    I'm just starting with the Uke so, feel free to correct me if I didn't get it right!
    Thank you for the tutorial @ArielMcCleary

    I remember when I bought my 1st ukulele 4 months ago... I was progressing really good and I thought I would try something harder so I tried to do this one (4th day btw) and i went on a mental breakdown cuz I couldn’t chuck I couldn’t pluck swiftly and I couldn’t switch cords properly and TODAY this video came in my recommendation and I remembered how much pain it gave me so I tried and i got the whole thing in one go no sweat (I practised in this 4 months and now I’m semi-pro)
    Moral: never give up even if it turns out to be your worst nightmare
    Overcome your fear guys
    For the beginners: its ok if you can’t do it at 1st... keep practicing it’ll get to you

You are extremely easy to follow and listen to, you are pleasant and happy. Thanks for sharing. I can't wait to see you other videos.

      I don't care what YOU say. The whole song is only THREE chords. Unless you want to go to other songs that have five or six chords to the song. But this, this is EASY! Like i said only three chords. That's why it's for beginners!

    After last years difficult time with ukulele i dared to pick it up again in this lockdown and my fingers went with sverving flow and thus managed to very fast learn this and also guitar. This is so that any person randomly stumbling upon this comment might get a little motivated or highly motivated. Its not about technicalities. Its about being vulnerable patient and committed to the instrument whether you still haywire it after months of persistence. One day it will get attached to your soul so you can play them as one. Also this young lady steals my heart away with her charm sweetness and soulful voice. What do I do with it young lady?. Just sending you a million ♥️s. Yours lovingly. -stranger

    The strumming pattern with chucks ( I believe ) is :
    Dm : Down - Chuck ( instead of DD )
    Cm : Down - Up - Chuck & D : Up ( Instead of DUDU )
    D: Up - Chuck - Up - Down - Up - Down - Up ( Instead of UDUDUDU )

    Hi Ariel, I like your video. You are such a sweetheart! I have played guitar, bass, mandolin and keyboards for 30 years. I am self taught. On Saturday my sister and I went and bought Ukulels just on a whim. I haven't seen your other videos yet but I will check them out. I feel a little silly learning from someone so much younger than myself. I'm usually the teacher. You have a nice personality and a fresh energy. I also think you have a kick ass voice. You go girl!!!

    Hey Ariel, I personally don't have a problem with sponsored videos, but I know people do. And I'm not sure if the Enya ukulele is sponsored or not. Just some advice, IF you do have a sponsor, don't be afraid to say that or write it in the description. I've seen some CZcamsr's get in trouble/bad feedback for this and I wouldn't want to see that happen to you.
    Great video as always. 💛
