Please Be My Strength chords by Gungor
Guitar chords with lyrics
There is a marked lack of tabs (or chords) for this song online, so I decided to try my hand at a transcription. I used this for a guitar class at my University. This is the picking pattern I use, the beats appearing on the top two rows and the fingerings on the bottom two: 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 / .(/). / .(/). / 4 23 4 4 23 4 4 1 1 1 1 1 In the actual recording, the pattern changes from verse to chorus, but I haven't yet figured it out. The above transcription is truly only half of the verse fingering, but I play it throughout and it sounds good enough, if not entirely authentic. Gungor himself is much more melodic in his playing; but this chord sheet should fit the bill until a more talented guitarist comes along and improves it. Happy Playing!
Please Be My Strength
