Play for Us!

<div>This version of the song is made up of mostly 2-note and a few 3-note chords. The tune sounds simple but, was decidedly difficult for me to play without a ton of mistakes.

My goals for this song were to play the musical phrases so they were recognizable and the chords were clear to the ear.

Chords were very clean and clear @JoeW . That is a lot of chord changes occurring up and down the neck, and transitions would be difficult. Keep at it!

That was very nice @JoeW 👍👍, as @Loraine said, clean chords all the way – I see it coming together for you – like the dam is going to burst😱

I had to laugh at the “take 2001” 😂That looks super challenging! The musical phrases were recognizable, and the chords I’m looking forward to hearing how it will progress!

Nice work @JoeW Really well played. I’m not familiar with the song so I need to seek it out. I have to admit I chuckled at your “take 12,001” comment at the beginning. Thanks for sticking with it and posting. Cool song!
