Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
There's no guitar on the album version, so the chord inversions I used are based on Jurado's live performance.
The song can be played in standard tuning with a capo on fret 2. To play how Jurado plays it live, tune a
whole step down with a capo on 4.
