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!

In general, I do a lot of back-and-forth between the high and low strings of each chord to imitate his effect.
The song starts on a pseudosloppy (i.e. not really sloppy but "loose" and a bit unpredictable) G.
(feeling-words are difficult, give me a break)

Starting tips for super-new musicians (like me):
For the strum pattern, it goes low-high low-high low-high low-high each measure.
The word "I" (first word of song) begins on the third "low" beat.
"Dumb" is immediately before first low note of the second measure of a group of four.
The C after "delirious" is a very brief transition immediately before the G chord. It's not totally necessary.
Listening carefully for syllables in relation to chord changes like this will help you sing and play.
Peace and love, homies.

I was numb, I couldn't sleep, jet-lagged and strung out on caffeine,

And now you're in my head
D
I can't stop thinkin about...

[Chorus]
Em C G D
you... All day long, it's all I
Em C G D
do... From the moment that I
Em C G D
wake up, oh, no, I can't stop thinkin' about
Em C G D
you... And it makes me

[Bridge]
Am
sad... because I know that you don't
Em
want me... And all these thoughts in my
Am
head... they tease me and they
D
taunt me...

[Verse 3]
G
All the broken hearts in London Town scattered on the street and on the underground,
Em C D
all the voices burnin' in my brain, they are... makin' me insane.

[Prechorus]
C
And now you're in my head,
Em
you're always in my head,
