Hey There, Delilah - Plain White T's

Track 1Guitar
TabSheetNotes
Tuning: E A D G B E

Capo: No capo

BPM: 200

    This song is fingerpicked! It's played entirely with your thumb, index, and middle fingers.
    The index finger plucks the "G" string and the middle finger plucks the "B" string, never changing
    The thumb is in charge of plucking all of the bass notes on your D, A, and E strings.
    For D, make the chord position the way you normally do, but remove your 2nd finger and place it in
    the 2nd fret of the "B" string behind your third finger. You'll need it to be there when you switch
    to F#m. For F#m and D/C#, use your 4th finger to hit the bass notes.
