Tuning: G C E A
Hot Blooded - Foreigner (transcribed for ukulele)
Theory:
The song is an exercise in sus4 and power chords.
The song is a basic blues I-IV-V pattern in the key of G.
We modify things a bit to sound better and make it easier to play on the ukulele;
some of the '5' chords (power chords) from the original song have been changed to 1st
and 3rd and noted with an asterisk (*) to differentiate from full chords
