This is a good song to practice using the triads we just covered.  I didn't know this song so I listened to it on youtube and found a tab on Ultimate Guitar.  This version used G, D, Em in the verse and in the chorus it was C, Dsus, Em.  Sounds great with triads,  just play it in different areas like the lessons.

Hey all,

I've added the sheet music to the first post in this thread.  It's the full version that I do, so it might be a good challenge for some.  But it's one I love to play and I hope you will enjoy it as well.

Nice!  I happen to be working on the fingerstyle session in the Learn and Master series, and love this hymm...one of the greatest worship songs ever written.  My fingerstyle guitar is in its infancy, but I love the sound and recognize how valuable practicing fingerstyle is to technical development; chords must change very accurately, all strings must ring clearly, attack of each note needs to be precise, and you have to rub your belly while patting your head at the same time.  Working on fingerstyle definitely improves skills.  Thank you Steve.  Do you have a book or compilation of other worship song sheet music/tab for sale?

Thanks,

Scott

Hello Steve,

It is a little off topic for tonight, but I'm working on an arrangement of "You are the Sunshine of my life" from the Real Book. I can't get it to work on the 6th line where it goes Amaj7, B-7, E7, A-, A-maj7, A-7. It doesn't sound right. Could you help?

Thanks

Patrick
