Catatan Tambahan untuk Pemain Gitar
Lagu ini dapat dimainkan dengan lebih akurat jika Anda menggunakan Capo di fret ke-2. Namun, memainkannya tanpa capo di nada yang lebih rendah juga memberikan karakteristik suara yang mantap dan lebih pas untuk vokal pria.
Dalam praktiknya, Anda bisa menggunakan variasi chord seperti Cadd9 (x32030) dan Em7 (022030) untuk transisi yang lebih mudah, karena Anda dapat mempertahankan jari manis pada senar ke-2 sepanjang permainan. Chord standar yang digunakan meliputi G (320033), D (x00232), C, dan Em.
Silakan bereksperimen dengan variasi chord tersebut agar sesuai dengan gaya bernyanyi Anda atau untuk mendekati aransemen asli dari 10,000 Maniacs. Selamat mencoba!
