Hey guys! I'm Alex, and this is the first JP Hoe song on Ultimate-Guitar! I find
that crazy, because this guy is incredibly talented. I first saw him at the
Mansion House in St. Catharines, and he just blew me away. His album is quite
good, but it doesn't do justice to how phenomenal he sounds live. This is off his
Christmas album Hoe, Hoe, Hoe. In the recording, he plays a baritone ukelele, guitar, and piano.
When he played it live, he just used the barry uke. So, some spots might not sound identical to the
original, but it should be pretty close! He rides pretty heavily on beats 2 and 4,
so make sure you get a nice down strum on 2 and 4 each bar. Have fun!
Am x 2 (you can try alternating between Am and Am/E, that sounds good to me)
