Song title: Words & Music
Original Album: Heartbeat Radio
Words and Music by Sondre Lerche
Copyright © 2009 Rounder Records Corp
Published by Rounder Records
Transcribed by Gavin Chart (contactus@gartfrets.net)
NOTES:
Lots of jazz chords here but the transitions aren't too bad, because often
you're sliding the same figure along the fretboard. It's just practice.
This is a great song. Enjoy!
