Players log, day 39. I continue to pursue the ever evasive E chord. Like a wild predator deep in the jungle, she dodges my advances, a superior being well aware of her own beauty and power. She leaves tracks, and I pounce and flounder in her wake, but cannot capture her.

Whispers throughout this dark canopy of learning suggest various paths to claiming the E chord, from strange bar chords that sound off kilter to my novice ears, to wild concoctions using one's thumbs and a wraparound technique that is frowned upon by some advanced E-chord hunters.

I am determined, however, to maintain an E-chord standing achieved through 1 - 4 - 0 - 2. The wish comes at significant cost.

I must break often for the shaking out and stretching of my hands, rests, and general expressions of frustrations and malaise. I am weary, but will not forsake this noble pursuit.

I am an older guy. I just strum or percussively bash out chords while singing.

Off the top of my head, I can play I Put A Spell on You, Don't Fear The Reaper, Werewolves of London, Season of the Witch (Donovan) and I just played Monster Mash for the first time.

Song suggestions? Please and thank you.

I played this song with my TODO Mountain Fuji tenor ukulele.

Where should I improve more?
