Reef - Place Your Hands
A really great song. To catch the feel of it,
the strumming rhythm is important. Listen to the
recording to get it right.
Intro:
D Em7 D Em7 etc.
(Do a bit of hammer-on when changing to the Em7 chord.)
Verse:
Oh, place your hands on my hope,
Run your fingers through my soul, alright
Oh, and the way that I feel right now, oh Lord it may go
So place your hands on my hope
Run your fingers through my soul, alright
Oh, and the way that we feel right now, oh Lord it may go
Put Your Hands On
Put Your Hands On
Put Your Hands On
Put Your Hands On etc.
Then comes the bridge, during which the bass and the
lead guitar plays the following riff 4 times, starting
at the Bm in the progression.
