White Christmas Ukulele Chords

by Brett McQueen

I love hearing from you all with your questions and comments. Due to request, one of our readers reminded me of this fantastic Christmas carol. I decided to take a go at “White Christmas.” Scroll down towards the bottom to see the chords for this song.

As you may have discovered, Christmas songs are known for their weird chords (e.g. 7th, diminished) and constant chord changes. In parenthesis, I designated some optional chords. If you chose not to play them, it would be easier and the song wouldn’t fall apart. However, they do add a cool sound to the song.

Chords Used in “White Christmas”

There are quite a few chords in this song, but thankfully, they aren’t too hard to play.
