George Michael - Freedom 90 - аккорды

[ Предположительная тональность: D ]

(This is just a basic chord progression. An advanced players can spice it up by adding melodic bass passages,)
(such as runs or alternating bass lines. A detailed explanation on it is at the bottom.)

(The original key is C. But it's easier to utilize the open strings when played in A with a capo on the 3rd.)


(Here are the simple chord voicings)

[Interlude]
(Actually this part is Am-Am-Am-D. But when played acoustic, it flows better and feels less boring)
