HEy everyone I Am 100% sure that the tabs below are exactly correct;
dont be intimidated by just the first line cuz there are instructions on how
to play almost each line and what position to put your fingers in. It's a
pretty easy song just takes a while to learn.
NOTICE: MOST OF THIS SONG IS MADE UP OF BROKEN CHORDS and i put little
drawings and
instructions of where to put your fingers and stuff
ALSO THIS SONG IS PLAYED BY FINGER-PICKING EACH NOTE IN A SLOW BUT STEADY
RhYThm
THE PLUCKING PATTERN FOR THIS SONG IS EXACTLY AS FOLLOWs
1.pluck either the 6th or 5th string with ur thumb (which is the E that
sounds really mellow or the A string that sounds a little mellow as well)
and then that is followed by plucking the G string (lol) with ur middle
finger immediatley followed by the plucking of the B and E(the e that sounds
really high pitched) strings with only ur index finger. U Do the part where u
pluck the G, B, and, E strings twice. U'll
see thats the pattern in the tabulature
THE TUNNING for this song is standard
ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!!! :-)
