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!
This is how i play the song on the acoustic guitar. I have omitted the bridge part.
I prefer to use the barre chords, because they allow you to alternate your sound,
depending on how much pressure you put on the strings.
