In this song, you will learn your plucking skills. This song is very difficult to play
you only stucked into a standard EADGBe tuning, that's why I decided to tune it in drop D
get the lower D#. Both Aly and Aj have a great plucking skills. Only a few girls can do
they can. They can also play in Drop D tuning.
Aj will be the lead soloist here, she's idle in almost all parts except the solo
I am lazy to tab the piano part in chorus, you can figure it out
Tuning: Drop D, both Aly and Aj
Chords used: (drop D only)
