This one uses some single string technique, but strips down to a nice and easy version if you use the difficulty slider. Notice the lyrics are below the notes in the tablature. Here, we are learning to "play the syllables". This is a tool used by a lot of pros. It really helps you accurately play the melody of a song and eventually develop a lyrical style in your playing. Try to say or sing the words as you play. It greatly helps develop your musicianship and aids your memory. If you don't know how the song goes you need to do some listening practice - regularly. Listen with the Tuneful player and add versions of this song to a playlist. Listening is important and should be a regular part of practice and source of continuous enjoyment.
