New Uke and Edelweiss

My new ukulele put me in search of songs to play. I saw Ukulele Mike’s version of Edelweiss, by Rodgers and Hammerstein, and loved it. Eventually I would like to learn his melodic version. In the mean time I thought it would be fun to adapt it to simple chords. Cami then told me she really likes the song, so of course I wanted to record it for her.
