I always loved George Harrison of the Beatles. As a young guitar player in the lates 60′s and early 70′s just learning the guitar George was a great inspiration. After Jake Shimabukuro do his version on uke I decided to try my hand at it and in the original key.
There is a ukulele TAB available of this arrangement at www.CurtSheller.com/scores/uke/WhileMyGuitarGentlyWeeps.shtml
I’m using a Pono cedar top, rosewood back and sides ukulele from Ko’olau Guitar & Ukulele.
With huge success of Jake Shimabukro’s video and recording of George Harrision’s While My Guitar Gently Weeps. I whipped up my own version of the song. My version is in the original key of Am.

George Harrison was a big fan of the ukulele and this is great song to play on the uke.
This is not the Jake arrangement. I’ve done my own arrangement for a low “G”, C tuning and in the original key. This is based on the arrangement that I perform in concert in a George Harrison medley with Here Comes the Sun.
Enjoy, Curt
