Playing slow is easy?

Post by Bengt Erlandsen »

This one really gives me a headache.
Some nice chords (I think so), but tricky to keep the same note sometimes. Using pedals while bar moves the opposite way.
Sustain all chords/notes as long as possible and slide from chord to chord. Volume-pedal is essential at most places except beginnig/end of song.
The numbers and "." below 10th string is the bar count and ^ marks where you pick a new chord/note
This is supposed to be played sloooowly. And the lower on the 2nd string is only a half-step so you get a B7 chord.
