Getting Started - by LyricLantern
To learn Mary Black - A Song for Ireland chords with lyrics, - Twenty Five Years-Twenty Five Songsyour practice should emphasize these chord progressions: A, G, A, D, G, D, Bm, D, A. I suggest starting at a calm pace of 90 BPM, and as you gain confidence, approach the song's BPM of 181. With an eye on the song's key D, set the capo that best suits your vocal range.
