- Top Ukulele Chord Progressions, Final Thoughts
Example: C | G | Am | F The I, IV, V, and vi chords are especially important in pop music. You can mix them up any way you want, and you’re going to end up with a relatively familiar chord progression. Of course, for that very reason, you should make it a point to familiarize yourself with this sequence of chords. There are many examples that shoul...
Example: Am | G | C More chords don’t always equal better, and there are plenty of songs that are based around two to three chords. If chords with just a handful of chords sound more complicated than that, it’s usually because of the layers of instrumentation that have been added on top. Since this progression begins on the vi, it should be thought...
Example: C | Em | F | G You don’t often hear the ii or iii chords in pop music these days, but that isn’t to say they don’t have their place! If used well, these chords can add a lot of color to a song. And we will be looking at other chord progressions that use these. You will have heard this specific chord progression in tunes like the legendary ...
Example: C | Em | Am | F | C | G So, at first brush, this might seem like a lot of chords. But don’t let it make your head spin. Once you’ve seen the example that follows, you’ll see that it’s not all that complicated. This chord progression is great for a ballad.

The transition from vi to IV, though, tends to sound a little more serious compared to vi to V, which sounds decidedly happier. The I still provides some resolution mind you. So, where have you heard this one before...
Example: C | Am | F What? Yet another variant on the three-chord progression we looked at earlier? As I said before, just about every variation of the I, IV, V, and vi chord combinations have been done. These chords work incredibly well together, like a well-oiled machine. But what makes this one interesting is that it’s in another popular ukulele ...
Example: C | Am | F | G I’m sure you’re starting to get the picture by now. Most popular songs are some combination of three or four chords. But in the grand scheme of things, we can’t just ignore this one, because it’s another classic, another important chord progression that’s made history (and it’s basically just adding a V at the end of the las...
Example: Am | Dm | G | C This is not a progression you will hear everywhere. But it’s quite brilliant, especially how it creates a descending pattern that inspires interesting melodies and harmonies. This progression will have a permanent association with Weezer’s vacation vibes hit “Island In The Sun,” a great tune to learn on the uke (though the ...
We hope you had as much fun looking at these ukulele chord progressions as we did compiling them! But if you’re ever lost, remember – music is made up of melody, harmony, and rhythm.
