In this LIVE ukulele video I perform a cover of Stand By Me by Ben E. King from Cardiff Beach, San Diego. www.ukelikethepros.com

Stand By Me is one of my favorite songs of all time. Although the water was a bit cold today for my surf session I still have a great time jamming.

This song on has 4 simple uke chords: A - F#min - D - E - A. The strum pattern can be a little tricky especially if you add some mutes to the chord progression. 

There is also a single note introduction that is played on the bass in the original Ben E. King version but here you notice I play it on the ukulele.
