Does anybody know the name of the song played directly after WHile My guitar Gently Weeps, on the Concert for George DVD. A man came up and played it with a ukelele. It goes something like " I'll see you in my dreams"
This would really help me. Thanks

That's the name of the song - as far as Amazon says for the Concert for George DVD - "I'll See You In My Dreams." It's an old standard I think.

BTW, are those chords playable on a ukelele? Don't they have 4 strings instead of 6?

It only takes 3 notes to make a chord... and if you're doing a 9 chord (which usually take 4 notes to fully define, if I remember correctly) I believe omitting the 7th is acceptable.

For example, how would you apply a guitar's Am chord to a ukulele. I don't really know much theory so this rather confuses me.

Baritone Uke's are tuned like the top four strings of a guitar, and the Tenor, Concert and Soprano are in the same relationship except higher. With the 'high G' stringing, the fourth string, the G, is an octave higher.

Here's a cool Uke site:

And yes, you can leave out the 7ths and lots of times the 5th. And on ukes, lots of times the root isn't at the bottom of the chord anyhow. But with the root, third and either the 7th or other 'extension' you get the flavor of the chord and it works.
