Lucero - My Best Girl Chords & Tabs

My Best Girl - Lucero
Standard Tuning


There are a couple ways to play this song. You can either just play all of the chords as
you normally would or you can leave the bottom fingers on the G down for the song. This
is how I play it, however, the chords by themselves sound good too. I’ll just show how I 
play the chords for the verse and you can get the picture from that. I also did some of
the fills that happen throughout the song. They are numbered and put into the song. I 
Hope this works for you!!! Enjoy!!!
