Try it and you # will realise that this sounds as it should. The tricky bit is picking # the bass strings and strumming the upper three strings, but listen # carefully and you will get around it. I am sure that this transcription # can be improved but I liked my descovery so much that I left it as # transcribed for the first time. Enjoy and let me know what you think.
