Steady As She Goes Ukulele

(ver. 1)
Sky Sailing
Capo 6
Key: C# (I think)
Either my variations shown below, or the actual chord I believe can be played ;) 
Have fun! I hope I got it right!

***Make sure you play the top strings on the Cadd --> Bm/G --> Em7/G*, because of 
the progression, E, F#, and G (not the actual notes you're playing. You're 
actually playing A#, C, and C#)

I'm not so sure about the Em7s, I think you can replace them with a G of some kind 
or Cadd9. You can also replace the Bm/G with a D. The Gsus2 can be replaced with a 
D (of some kind), Cadd9 or another G. Cadd9 can be replaced with C6/9. Ah, 
whatever! If something sounds wrong, post a correction and I'll look into it.

When in doubt, use the chord progression in Brielle. C G D Em7 C G D It's 
essentially the same. OH! And a big thanks to the dude (Jeremy Keltner) that did 
the tab for this song. It took a long time transposing and arranging chords from 
his tabs in such a way so that they don't sound like a dying cat, or your 
classmates singing happy birthday. *shudders* Again, have fun! AND THANKYOU!

Strum twice with it muted, so it makes a chucka chucka sound <---

:) I probably messed up a bunch in the verses, but I think I nailed the chorus!
