Ukulele Tutorial - Plain White T's "Rhythm of Love"

When I first heard "Rhythm of Love", I didn't realize it was the Plain White T's since the main lead singer didn't actually sing this number. Nevertheless, it's a great song and has their classic sound.

I posted a tutorial on how to play this song on the ukulele, which coincidentally is used by the band in the song. Amazing! Enjoy.

Also, I'm having some difficulty tying my blog to my youtube videos, so sorry for the inconvenience.

VERSE 

G                                      D
My head is stuck in the clouds

Says, "Boy, quit foolin' around"

As it turns to the rhythm of love"

My heart beats like a drum

A guitar string to the strum

A beautiful song to be sung

D            G                              D

She's got blue eyes deep like the sea
G                                             D

That roll back when she's laughing at me
      Em   D              C

She rises up like the tide

      D                             G

The moment her lips meet mine

We may only have tonight

And sway to the rhythm of love

BRIDGE
B7            C           G        D

When the moon is low
B7            C           G        D - A

We can dance in slow motion

C                D

And all your tears will subside

C             D             G
All your tears will dry

VERSE 3

Ba ba (ba ba ba ba) 

Em             D               C

Dum da da dum da da dum.

G                              D

And long after I've gone
G                              D

You'll still be humming along
Em                 D             C

And I will keep you in my mind
       D                            G

The way you make love so fine

CHORUS

            Em   C      G

We may only have tonight

But till the morning sun, you're mine

All mine

I always like to advocate for the artist in these cases. They are the ones who bring us the magic, and if you like what I've played, you'll much prefer what the Plain White T's have created. Buy their music!
