How do you play these notes???

Post by LessThanZero »

Noise, can you help me?? :)


Love For Sale
(Cole Porter)
This tune is a real workout for guitar due to it being in the key of Bb,
But the important thing is to keep it mucho molto... On the F augmented (F+)
chords, hold for a half note, palm your pick and attack the triads in a
quarter note fashion and stay on top of the beat until the chord change.

I've been performing this song for about 7 years now, but if I have made an
error, please forward all corrections to hamnrye@mindspring.com.

wayward ways of this wayward town that her smile becomes a smirk

I don't think you need my help. It look slike you've done very well. I would absolutely use a capo if I were to play this song, but only because I'm lazy.
