Chords with lyrics
-------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------- By: Steven Smigiel I put stuff out there for a guy playing solo acoustic guitar. I like open chords for the bass & resonation. I'll always give the lyrics and enough tab to get you going. I'm sure all the chords have more technical names but when I'm playing I use this for a reference. -Steve I tune to standard 440 but one fret lower. SoE MajorE is
Eb MajorEb etc.
