Cher (born Cherilyn Sarkisian; May 20, 1946) is an Oscar- and Grammy-winning American singer and actress. A major figure for over five decades in the world of popular culture, she is often referred to as the Goddess of Pop for having first brought the sense of female autonomy and self-actualization into the entertainment industry.
She is known for her distinctive contralto and for having worked extensively across media, as well as for continuously reinventing both her music and image, the latter of which has been known to induce controversy.

Tuning:
The original studio track is quite flat, the backing tape
may have been slowed down by the producer to change the
pitch and tempo. Tune down all strings (approx. minus 40
if using a chromatic tuner) to match the original recording.
Alternatively, find a more recent concert version to play
along with, which should more likely be in correct pitch.
