Good playing but a few mistakes with regard to the chord progression, its Dm and not F for the line "A lone loon dives 'pon the water" and for the line "Down in the lime tree arbor" you played F G C when it should be F Em Dm C. I'm just saying this for other people trying to figure out the song as i've seen so many wrong chord sheets and TABs for this song.
Hey, thanks alot! It's a Taylor 510 guitar. I usually use Elixer strings but this is an older video and it may be Martin Marquis then. Always light gauge.
love your intro! hard to do this song on guitar, but you really do a great job here. you use quite a lower tempo than the original, but that really suits your voice! although it's easy to mess up such a delicate and fragile song, you really made something beautiful out of it! thanks for posting this.
Hey, thanks for saying so. I usually play songs that I can try to sing powerfully. This song is simple but the lyrics are very strong, so I try to sing it very softly and let the words convey all the power.
Great job, Tom. But you know, it really needs some organ and some vocal harmonies :) [Tom asked me to add such, and I will one day!] I think I know just the guy to do it!
