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!
The rhythm is pretty easy to pick up but if you want to sing as well it is quite difficult.
When the gaps get bigger between the chords it doesn't mean play them longer it's just, sing faster!
It's the same continuous rhythm throughout. I have tried my best to get the chords in the right
place but where there's extra words it can get hard, it's about 95% accurate. Hope you like
my first tab.
