Two Main Methods for Plucking the Ukulele:
The first way uses your thumb, index, and middle finger. Your thumb plucks either of the top two strings, your index finger plucks the second to bottom string, and your middle finger plucks the bottom string.
The second way uses your thumb, index, middle, and ring finger. Your thumb plucks the top string, your index finger plucks the second to top string, your middle finger plucks the second to bottom string, and your ring finger plucks the bottom string.
Tabs are read left to right. The number on the tab represents which number fret you will be pressing down on. The line the number is on represents which string you will be pressing down and plucking on. Each time a number appears along the tabs it represents on note being plucked. Notes that appear in line vertically will be played and the same time. Blank bars represent a rest.
