Fingerpick it [2 beats per pattern]. There are a couple of places where
achord
only gets 1 beat -Just squeeze the chord pluck the 4 strings
simultaneously.
Finger both the E/G# and the C#/E# chords in a open D chord shape
with the thumb wrapped around to the 6th string. Like this:
C#/E# The E/G# is the same thing played at the
--X-X------ 4th fret
T ] ] 1 ] 2
-----------
] ] ] ] 3 ]
Chorus:
] F#m ] C#/E# ] Em ] F# ]
I must be strong and carry on
The Em sounds much better if you add a C# with your pinky
(2nd fret at the B string)
