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!

I play it in the Key of G (Capo 4). It can be played open in the Key of B with
these Chords: B, F#/A#, G#m, E, F#, E/G#

Capo 4

G G D/F# Em C

To the wonders of Your heart to Your great love

Chorus:

note: I think it also sounds good, maybe even better, substituting Em7 [0 2 2 0 3
3] for Em, Cadd9 [x 3 2 0 3 3] for C, and Dsus4 [x x 0 2 3 3] for D.

Strum pattern for beginners - First, listen to the song. The fast part (end of
verse lines, end of chorus) I play:

G D/F# Em C
D D UUUDUDU D D UUUDUDU

During the verse just play and let ring out the initial single chord until the jam
above.
During the chorus, I play something like this (hitting just the root note
sometimes on down strums including the initial strum):

D D DU D D D DU D D D DU D D D DU D D D DU
G C D G
Praise is waiting for You in this place

I hope that's helpful. It's a great song, enjoy!
