Be Thou My Vision

my attempt at this lyrical hymn. After noodling in various keys and tunings, this was the best I could come up with. Thanks, happydave, for asking about it.

no TABs, but the chord progression is

C C/B Am Am/G Fmaj7 G C

G C/B C Am(on 5) G(on 3)

F(on 5) F/E(on 5) Dm (on 5) Fmaj7 G

Am (bass run) Em Am Dm G C

(the last line is also the intro)

I'll meet you in Manton and we can play together someday.

Nice work, John!

Fr Martin is actually in our area as I type... but I do want to visit Manton again. Soon I hope.

[jrossguitar]

[kjssjcarlsonfamily]

Rather than a tab, can you put what chords those are and how to make them? I think I've got an idea of what they all are, but I think that would be as helpful as tabs to some people who are halfway decent at guitar. Also, could you maybe explain the pattern you used for finger picking? That part I can't get. I've never been good at catching what strings are going on. :)

[tkachta1]

Any chance you could send a tab for that?

[JustChris77]

Great work buddy, I hope I can reach this standard of playing someday!
