*LEGEND: The chords with parentheses, "()" and/or asterisks "*" indicates passing chords; play those only once.
Note: If you desire to play this tune on the 'ukulele, it's advisable to play it in the key of D minor rather than A minor. To go higher in pitch from this key of Am to Dm, you move up 5 frets (5 semitones)*
