5 Guitar Amps for Beginners That Are Actually Great
Afinação: E A D G B ETecla: EbCapotraste: 6th traste
Beautiful song. Hard to sing and play at the same time, but it is possible. I keep it simple and
I dont play the final part cuz it doesn't sound as epic with the guitar alone, but I'll leave the chords
down here.
This sounds good to me, the main part is pretty acurrate, you can mess with the chorus a bit more as it
doesn't sound as clear, but this works perfectly fine.
