Sensitive in C major on Baritone ukulele

The 2000s hit machine. Emotional and instantly recognizable.

Play vi · IV · I · V in C major using these Baritone shapes: Am (2 2 1 0), F (3 2 1 1), C (2 0 1 0), G (0 0 0 3). Each set of frets follows D, G, B and E, from left to right in the diagrams. A 0 means open and x means mute.

Learn the first two shapes as a pair before adding the rest of the loop. Start with one downstrum per chord, then play four downstrums on each. If you know this progression on a Standard ukulele, follow the chord names here and learn the DGBE shapes. The sounding key stays C.

Frequently asked questions

How do you play Sensitive on Baritone ukulele in C?

Follow vi · IV · I · V in C major using these DGBE shapes: Am (2 2 1 0), F (3 2 1 1), C (2 0 1 0), G (0 0 0 3). Read each set of frets from the D string to the E string. A 0 means open and x means mute.

Do I need to transpose chord names for Baritone ukulele?

No. Play the written chord names using Baritone fingerings. Sensitive in C still uses Am, F, C, G. Copying Standard gCEA fingerings onto DGBE strings changes the chords you hear.

How should I practise the Baritone chord changes in Sensitive?

Start with the first two shapes, Am (2 2 1 0) and F (3 2 1 1). Pluck each string to check that fretted notes sound cleanly and muted strings stay silent. Switch between those chords slowly, then add the remaining changes in order. Try one downstrum per chord before playing a full bar on each chord.
