Feel free to update me with a better version...
thanks James B, Northern Ireland
Nelly Furtado - Album; Whoa Nelly!
Song name - Hey Man
Dead easy to play (as long as you don't mind losing some of the
cd's background effects. Sounds great on an acoustic....
although it's probably too fresh for most listners to reconise
(unless they have the album of couse!) and i am sorry about the
lyrics and spelling (kinda hard to hear at times!)
My guitar is tuned down a bit so i can sing with it, with a capo on
the 1st fret, the tuning is close to the cd's (this is possiblly
regular tuning)
