Standard Tuning
Capo 3
Play slowly and with flow
I don't know if I have everything spot on, but I played along to the track without missing a note.
I hope you all enjoy this song as much as I do.
It is a very beautiful song that everyone should have the pleasure of hearing and playing to.
To add some flare to your playing, let off the E string and
hammer the A string while you are strumming a G.
In the song, when you see a chord that is placed off of the lyric line like this.
C G F C
The most perfect I've ever seen
On the second to last chord, you strum down, up, down, down, and then strum down one more
time on the last chord.
