Hey all... I saw Phil play at Creation both on stage and in the worship tent. He is an
talent and a great songwriter. This is a simplified version of 'Cannons' off of the new
Sometimes he does it in alternate tunings, but this is simple and in the Key of G. If
want to hike it up to his range you can put a capo on the 2nd fret, but this a good safe
for those of us who can't hit the notes that he can. It's not the way it is on the CD,
it works. Enjoy!!!
