    Thank you so much, Rob. When my daughter was a toddler, I could pick the melody but not play it full the way you've shown us here. We had fun playing and singing along with the recording anyway. We have happy memories of this and over the years we always sing it together when we hear it. My baby is 24 now and I cannot wait to surprise her with my new skills playing this beautiful song. Thank you so much.

Now I would like to play Something in a way, Don’t let me down, Stairway to Heaven, Dirty old bosa nova, and Father and Son. I would appreciate that a lot. Thank you Sir.

    Thanks for taking the time and for posting. Great job and pretty much exactly how I play it (except I prefer the 12 string). My favorite version is with George being accompanied by Pete Ham of Badfinger at the Concert for Bangladesh). 😁 One slight difference is that instead of using my ring finger to slide up on the G string, I prefer to hammer on with my pinky. It is less movement and much easier (although I sometimes mix it up and do both).
