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 a beautiful song by the Backstreet Boys... I tried to figure out the chords... Here it is
and for the strumming pattern.., listen to the song carefully, towards the end
(when Brian Littrel sings "If you knew what I knew my baby, you would never have
said what you said..") you can hear the clear strumming. That is the exact
strumming for the whole song. Enjoy

If only I could feel your pain
