Chords with lyrics
Listen to the live rendition for picking, subtle 7s and 9s, and strumming patterns.
Each time he performs the lyrics are a little different but this is the gist of it.
He swaps up where he plays the chord in relation to the first word of each line, so play freely.
Enjoy :D
(First half he picks a general 1,4,3,5 string pattern)
