So I was watching Beirut videos the other night on YouTube and decided to buy a ukulele. It just got delivered to my doorstep a little while ago. The first thing I did was look up the tab for Postcards From Italy. I was able to learn some ukulele chords pretty quickly. Here are the results. I’m not sure why I make all of those dumb faces while I play, but I can’t help it I swear. I look forward to learning how to play this thing. Now if I could only learn to sing…

Note: This is a crappy Washburn Oscar Schmidt uke that I got off of Amazon. It seems fine for learning, but it doesn’t stay in tune very well and it is made out of cheap materials. Once I learn how to play, I’ll probably spring for a better one.

Here are the chords and lyrics, in case you want to learn too:
