that was at the Last of Us theme tune. Um, it was like kind of the main kind of riff. I can do a part two video if you want. To comment to do a part two if you want. To comment to do like a I'll do a part two on it. So, I'll do the rest of the song if you want me to do so. I'm just comment down below and you will find it. So, it's kind of the same. It's a difficult piece to learn just to do the coordination of your fingers, but it's basically either constantly, but more so a little bit lighter and a bit water flowing. So, it's a gcea on the strings, okay, and you're not going to use the, you're not going to use this lowest one a tool says. So just practice that okay. So you want to first start put your ring finger before I use, oh yeah. The two way to play this is you could also pay a thumb index middle. So that sort of thing, oh yeah, but I usually

play the thumb, and then thumb, and then index. So just kind of skip over that one though I find that easier. So um, so start on the fifth fret of the G string. So this one, and I usually use my ear, my ring finger for that one. So like that, okay. So okay. And then you want to clip. Once you've got that, kind of want to make it a little bit more flowing. So gonna make this a bit louder than these as well. So, so like a nice rhythm, yeah. So you want to play that eight times. So two, three, four, five, six, it. And then you want to go to the second fret, still on with this pattern. So you keeping this pattern and just slide your finger second fret. So you play this eight times. I play that one. So the second fret ones. And then you want to slide down to the seventh fret. I play that once. And then you will to go up to the fourth fret and play that once. And then you continue with the fifth fret. So again over that is fifth. Okay, a second going down to

seventh get it up to fourth, and then fifth eight times again so will that all the way through is to navigate around all this it's quite hard. It's right from the second fret, the second rep to the seventh fret, so it's quite a long way up the board. So you can use whatever it feels comfortable. You just got hit those notes so eight times. Now I switch to my index usually on the second fret and my little finger on the seventh fret and then the fourth fret index again and then middle on the fifth. So you argue this I did something different though but it's just literally and whatever feels comfortable at the time just do just hit the five two seven four three five two seven four and then the five again okay so okay and the next bit is so the same sort of thing so five again on the eighth exactly same to again once up to seven same thing but then when you get to four but but then as you play it again you slide your to forth to nine so you're

gone and then you keep you keep in that that's a really difficult bit you got to get and keeping the rhythm of them as you do it so I find it quite difficult. Okay, that um, that ninth fret, play it four times. So you go and then go up to five once. Okay, five once and then you want to go to two and then seven times, sort of thing, and then four. So basically it's a it's the same as the first bit, you know that, but you're adding that nine in there. So as doing that, yeah, that's pretty much it. So I'm to recap over the second bit. It's okay, five, two, seven, four, five. Okay, so now we're recapping over all suppose per second. Okay, that's the second bit. Now this third bit is a little bit. It sounds a bit weird, but it's not as difficult as the rest. So third bit is. So you've ended up on this fifth again. That's kind of your home, home base is the okay. And then you want to go down to

eight sounds a bit off, but you go down to eight and play that once. Go down to six, eight, seven, and then play seven again. As you play that seven, you've got to slide up to four to five, I think. Yeah, yeah, up to five. So you've gone from eight, seven, seven again, but slide to five. And then just to play four and then five. And that's it. That's for the first part anyway. So, um, I'll play it all again through slowly and then normal speed. But if you want me to do the other part, which is kind of, it's not, it's not really, you won't recognize it when you play the game because you probably only hear that first kind of riff. But, um, it's about a three minute long song. So it's quite, it's quite long. Yeah. So do it slowly at the moment. It's lonely now. So remember to fade in. Just sounds a lot better. Mother to do that. You just pick it a little bit harder. Okay. Um, so played

slowly and now at normal speed. I bet runs ever okay so hopefully that made sense. It's pretty much like just five to seven four is your main frets on the g string, which the top string will use whatever things you can to just to reach those notes. I'll put, I think, ukulele hunt has a perfect tab, and that really worked. So if you got on ukulele hunt and then just search the Last of Us theme, you find it there. Um, yeah, it took me about four hours just to learn that bit, so it takes a long time to do, but yeah. So I haven't been getting tutorials out either. I've been busy with college and stuff like that and get a job, but I'll try and get some more out regularly. Thank you to all my 750 subscribers as well. Smell really good. I've reached well over 125,000 views, so thanks guys.
