"Birds" By the Lemmings (live version)
Play this one on an acoustic, thats gonna sound best unless you have
another person on
electric for the main riffs (fig.1 and fig 2) but it sounds fine with out
it. Play the
verse without a pick so the sound is softer. Fret the low F# with your
thumb in the main
riff. Not a hard song to play, though the little B7/Cmaj7/D/E sequence in
the chorus
takes a few mintutes to get right. Believe it or not this song was written
by the bass
player! Without further ado....
