Joe Satriani - A Celebration (from Unstoppable Momentum)
The rhythm is a very easy strumming pattern in 4/4 time. Most chords occupy full
measures, and the changes happen on the quarter note. In the absence of a chord chart, the G/B
chord is the usual G major without playing the root note on the fat string. :-)
The bass line would follow the positions here, just make sure to play the B, not the G
in the G/B chord. Of course, there is a bit of improvisation going on so play it how it
feels comfortable to you.
