a more challenging option for those looking to advance their skills. The accompanying chord sheet includes the same picking and strumming patterns, formatted in a simpler way
to cater to different music reading capabilities.The chord sheet also offers
three alternative ways to play the F chord, accommodating musicians at different levels. With five different chords in this piece, it serves as an excellent tool for
beginners to learn and practice, while the picking pattern adds an extra layer of challenge, making it a piece that
bridges the higher end of beginner into a lower intermediate level.Small notehead notation is used in the lead sheet as each verse slightly differs. The lyrics for each verse will make it clear which of the notes should be sung/played.
Given the repetitive nature of the song, you may choose to switch playing styles between strumming and picking to add variety, or shorten the arrangement by choosing a few verses rather than playing them all.
