There’s a great tutorial on YouTube by Liana Flores where she teaches this song and the strumming pattern and all that. Helps a lot
Just a friendly reminder to warm up your voices!!!
-2 is easier
if ur using 0 replace the Fm with F and the Ab with Bb and it sounds 1000x better
I’m so happy this song is on here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-4 is easiest
I’m a lower alto, so I transposed it to -6, but make sure that if you do, play the Ab chord up a fret, otherwise it’s gross and wrong 😂
ah help my voice *and* hands are dead after performing that
whats the strumming pattern?
For the last verse (on 0) you can use Bb instead of all the Ab’s except the last one and it sounds better imo.
