Linnea Olsson

Sailing

by Linnea Olsson
Linnea Olsson

Biography:

One could begin with an insight into Linnea Olsson's musical world with a description of what she has reared from. Paint a picture of a small Coastal Swedish town family of four, four musicians nonetheless. Her resume reads of a manuscript for the trained to aspire towards. All the tools, schools, accolades one could gather to claim themselves as a prepared musical being, following in the path that had been cleared before her. Yes it seems you can already guess what is next for her.

Chords 27/12-2015 by Jon Malmin ([email protected])
Tuning: Standard E

The low note during the verse parts when the C is being played is not actually a G, but a lower C. However,
since this note can not be reached on a guitar in standard tuning, I play C/G instead to get almost the same
feeling as the original recording. If you're playing this song with a bassist, I suggest that the bassist
plays a low C note instead of the G.

Strumming pattern (the strokes in parenthesis are lighter or even optional. Dots represent syncopated notes):

Beat: 1 . 2 . 3 . 4 .
Down-or Upstroke: D U (D) U (D) U D (U)
Chord example: C C C C C/G

The song can also be played with lightly palm-muted downstrokes. Experiment with different variations!
