Riff D

||-----------------------------| Here the same sound can be

||-----------------------------| acquired through higher strings

||-----------------------------| but, given the bassier nature of the

||-13-16-18-13--13-14-16-18-13-| sound and the easier

||-13-16-18-13--13-14-16-18-13-| chord I’ve chosen these.

||-13-16-18-13--13-14-16-18-13-|

 

Please send me any corrections or additions. This isn’t a hard song
to play

but bits and pieces of each riff pop up sometimes so listen to the song!
