NotesBeta

To learn The Officials - Babylonian chords, begin by getting comfortable with these sequence: Em, Bm and Em. A good strategy is to initiate at 74 BPM and then accelerate to the track's regular speed of 149 BPM. With an eye on the song's key B Minor, set the capo that best suits your vocal range.
