Again, one of the favorites out of Jake's originals.

My left hand form might look strange to most players.
I cannot bend my ring finger at the first joint to ceja 1st and 2nd strings, so I moved some of the notes on the 2nd string onto the 4th string. It is kind of inefficient, but this is the only way I can play. My pinky finger is very busy :)
Obviously I skipped several notes to simplify the song too.

Though my plaing is rough with lots of mistakes and I still cannot play as I expect, I am happy to have this one in my repertoire.
This also helped me train finger picking.

Again, thanks to Dominator for his kind help.

Also I learned a lot from gx9901xx's version. Thanks, George.

Note that I used this song as a learning material.

  • owwww, I love it. Thanks for your presentation.

  • @Andi0012345 Thanks for dropping by and leaving a kind comment.

  • Very lovely playing of this song.

  • @MusicMonsterW thanks Ronin! I have to revise this song soon :)

  • I came across this by accident... I'm really really impressed, especially in leu of your joint issue. All my joints work fine and I'm not on this level. I can hear the emotion in the notes. Well played, sir.

  • @LombardoJoe thanks for your kind words! This song motivated me to practice hard at that time.

  • @TerryUkes お返事ありがとうございます!家にクーラーがないので週末は涼し­い所に移動していることが多いです。でも暑い日はウクレレの塗装­もよく乾くので外で蚊取り線香たきながらウクレレの塗装すことが­多いですね。だいたい夏はそれでダイエットしてます。

  • @AUDREYLIGHTING ヨシムラさんにそういっていただくと嬉しいというか恐縮です^^­; このころは暗譜したてでテンポが悪いしミュートも多かったんです­が、今はほんの少しマシになったかな? そういえばヨシムラさんって盆前は忙しいですか?謎の質問ですが­^^;
