Ain't No Sunshine Ukulele Tutorial | Easy 4 Chord Song

Here's how to play Ain't No Sunshine on the ukulele! This is a great song for beginner ukulele players. We're learning it in the key of A minor, which is the original key.
You just need 4 chords: A minor, E minor7, G and D minor. I do say "three" chords in the tutorial, because the G chord is just there for the bass movement, and you could simplify this song by leaving out the G and just staying on E minor.
This tutorial goes nice and slow, covering the song form, counting, and lining up chords with lyrics. I also give you several strumming options so you can mix and match to create your own arrangement. Check out the time stamps below to jump around as needed.
