(dm)baby baby, (G)try to find. (Em)A little time and (A7)I”ll make you mine. (F)I’ll be home. i’ll be (D7)beside the phone waiting for (G)you.
Ooo-oo-ooo, ooo-oo-ooo
This how I play the pre-chorus and i think it sounds much better
Instead of Dm at “I’ll be beside the phone”, (2-0-2-0) (dunno chord name) sounds better :)
Em7 :)
It’s the alternative D7. See Natalie’s comment above.
Strumming pattern i use: D-U-x-U
Any alternatives for Fm?
if I’m being personally honest i like this strumming pattern for this D tap U U tap
a good pattern is du Xu. with good rhythm, it sounds super cool
i do dduu as the strum.
My strumming pattern is ddudu
Sameeee
-5 is easiest for me! Love this song!!
Is there an easier way to do Fm? Can you bar the first fret?
Sometimes when jumping from the F to the Fm, I won’t switch fingers 1 & 2 and will hit the B with 4.
It really doesn’t matter where you heard it, it’s a beautiful song
