Right now is the time for us to start learning our Christmas carols. I want to share one that might be my favorite: “Let It Snow.” I think I like the lighthearted feel to the rhythm the most. It’s fun to play and to sing. Scroll down to see the chords for this song.
The chord changes do happen pretty fast, so be ready to anticipate those changes. In the video above, I added some extra passing notes between the chords. The most important chords are in the chord chart below.
Before we look at the whole song, let’s see what chords are used in this version of “Let It Snow.”

“Let It Snow” Ukulele Chords
Here are the chords for “Let It Snow” on ukulele. Be sure to check out our ukulele songs page for other Christmas carols and more great songs you can play on ukulele.
Oh, the weather outside is frightful,
But the fire is so delightful,
And since we’ve no place to go,
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.
It doesn’t show signs of stopping,
And I brought some corn for popping.
The lights are turned way down low,
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.
When we finally kiss good night,
How I’ll hate going out in the storm.
But if you really hold me tight,
All the way home I’ll be warm.
The fire is slowly dying,
And, my dear, we’re still good-bye-ing,
But as long as you love me so.
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.
This is awesome!! I love Christmas songs, thank you so much for posting these =) May I request that you do “White Christmas” for your next one? It’s my mom’s favorite Christmas song, and I’d love to be able to play it for her this year. Thanks!!
I’ll be sure to keep it in mind! I’m always looking for ideas. I really like that one too. 🙂
Great rendition of let it snow! One of my favs also! Only wish I was far enough along to play it …but I’m making progress! Albeit slowly. Just a susgestion would it be possible to put up a printer friend version or PDF of the songs/lyrics/tabs?
Congrates on your site …good stuff!
That’s a great idea to do a PDF version of these songs. I will keep it in mind for future songs!
Luv that song! Hopin to get a ukulele for christmas, and as I can see a large package underneath my tree I think i could be guaranteed one this year possibly 😉 I hav already been practising on my friends ukulele’s and can sort of play the song, so on christmas day I might learn it while the dinners on an give a rendition of it!
thanks a lot from London 🙂
Here’s to crossing your fingers for the uke! 🙂 Have a merry Christmas!
OK I’m getting my request in early LOL! I would LOVE to learn “What Child is This.”
Ha! I’ll keep it in mind for next Christmas! 🙂
There’s nothing like a good carol to get you in the Christmas spirit…in the middle of August! 🙂 By the way, I’d like to see if you could do a cover of “30 Days” by Nevershoutnever and “Last Christmas” by George Michael, two REALLY great Christmas songs. It’s never too soon to get in the holiday mood 🙂
I’m always looking for song suggestions, so I will keep those in mind! Thanks for your comment, Frank!
Brett,
You are a terrific teacher. It’s only my second day out ,yet you got me playing “I’ve Been Workin’ On the Railroad” and “Let It Snow” already! And the uke is so quiet I don’t have to worry about waking the neighbors. I’m avery happy new subscriber.
Hey Leslie, thank you for your comment! I’m so happy to hear about your progress so far! Welcome 🙂
very dangerous to sing in public as i did, particularly if you accidentally miss sing corn for popping with the first letters the wrong way round. great peice though and thanks for sharing
Ahaha! I’ll make a note never to do that. 🙂
I just got my ukulele today.. I knew nothing, but so far, i’ve learned 5 songs on here almost perfectly. 🙂 If I wouldn’t have found this sight, i’d be frustrated trying to learn right now! I feel so accomplished.. hahaha. The whole me being able to play so quickly might be because I play guitar.. but, for real, this website is absolutely amazing.
I love love lovvee this song. 🙂
Thanks, Joy! Happy holidays to you! 🙂
I don’t mean to be the one person who’s a downer in the list of comments but I hope you realize that when you show what chords you have to know for the song, the red dots are upside down.
The perspective of the chord diagrams with the red dots are designed to be as if you are behind the neck playing the ukulele. This means the bottom string of the diagram is the top string of the ukulele and the top string of the diagram is the bottom string of the ukulele.
Well done Brett! nice idea. I agree it would be good to have the pdf version so i can add it to my Christmas collection…maybe with a picture of a Christmas tree or something in it. Merry Christmas and happy strumming!
Can you talk us through the strumming pattern? Thanks!
Hi Brett, I would also like to hear something about the strumming pattern of this song, just like Ali.
Thanks so much for what you do for us, ukulele players in the world! Have a lovely Christmas, Brett. And a creative, inspiring, happy New Year!
kind regards
Tania
I love your sight. It has been a great way for me to get started playing the ukulele. What is your strumming pattern for Let It Snow? I can’t quite pin it down just listening to it.
