is it just me or does the Csus2 sound out of place???
It doesn’t seem to work very well. I usually play the song by playing the chords once at the right parts, and work the strumming pattern from there but this just seems completely out, no matter what I do…
This song means a lot to me because when I was in primary school (yes I’m British) we went to a competition in singing and we sung this song and it brings back memories of an innocent childhood 🙂 ToT
