Phil Wickham - True Love Ukulele

(Live)

This is (I'm pretty sure) exactly how he plays it in this version:


This is such an amazing song, I love it!
Watch the above video for exact timing and strum/mute techniques.

Tuning: C#-G#-C#-F#-G#-C# (half-step below DADGAD)

Chords Used: (Your index finger should stay on the third string
and your ring finger should play the notes on the sixth string.
I found this to be the easiest way and it's the way he plays it.)
