Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree – by Brenda Lee – Ukulele tutorial by Ukulele Mike Lynch

Despite her mature-sounding voice, Brenda Lee recorded this song when she was only 13 years old. Despite the song’s title, its instrumentation also fits the country music genre, which Brenda Lee more fully embraced as her career evolved. The recording features Hank Garland’s ringing guitar and Boots Randolph’s swinging solo sax break.
An instrumental version of the song appears as background music in the 1964 television special Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, which exclusively featured music written by Marks. It can be heard in the scene where Rudolph first arrives at the Reindeer Games and meets another reindeer named Fireball. The song was also used in the 1990 film Home Alone during a scene when Kevin McCallister pretends that there is a holiday party taking place in his house, and discourages the burglars from robbing it.

“I’LL BE HOME FOR CHRISTMAS” . . . You can do this as a 2 song medley with “HAVE YOURSELF A MERRY LITTLE CHRISTMAS” . . . Play along with Ukulele Mike

Note I have both a Christmas Chord melody ebook as well as a Christmas Fingerpicking collection. 

Uses the swing shuffle but a bit more laid back from “Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas”. That C#dim7 chord is so cool and easy to play. By the way in most songs the Diminished chord is truly a Diminished 7th.

Try this delightful Christmas song on your uke. Wonderful chord progression. 

There are a few chords we might not often use so take time to review those. Practice them repeatedly to develop muscle memory for those fingerings then play them in context of the song. I think it’s always cool to learn new chords to enlarge our chord vocabulary.  This morning I took out my mandolin which I don’t play as often as I should and worked through this tune. Before long I was switching back and forth between mando and ukulele. Great exercise to fend off alzheimers.
