Live tab by Paul And Storm
Guitar Tab
Tuning: EADGBe, capo 5th fret This is a cute song and it's great Travis picking practice, if you're looking for that. It's also baby's first real tab! Some notes on fingering: * The slides indicated are of the whole chord shape I'm making. * Play the bridge up till the D chords, and the Bm7 in the verses, as barre chords * I get that last harmonic with my pinkie. YMMV.
