I will take a stab at this based on the concert vids I've seen. First off, it seems like he's playing standard (high G) tuning. I changed both my tenor and soprano ukes over to low G tuning to learn "Still Alive" (and low G just makes more sense for a guitarist like me) but it looks like I've gotta change it back. You can't just tune a low G to a high G without breaking strings, so I'll have to track down a suitable string. I may already have something that will work in my voluminous "string library" (those of you who have seen my little home studio in person know I'm not actually kidding...)

This song is an unusual one for the ukulele as it's mostly blues riffs and implied chords, but here's my best shot at tabbing it as close as I possibly can to the way Jonathan plays it. Tuning is GCEA, which is somewhat standard.
