NotesBeta

Let's start jamming The Waterboys - (2013 Remaster, 1986-1988) And A Bang On The Ear chords, practice the chord sequence G, C, D, G, D and C. I suggest starting at a calm pace of 45 BPM, and as you gain confidence, approach the song's BPM of 91. Adjust the capo based on your vocal range and chord preference, keeping the song's key of G Major in mind.
