Beautiful Lord Leeland
1) I'll start this off by saying that this is a beautiful song. I love it to pieces. For
this reason I want to provide an accurate Chord composition.
2) I also want to say, (a quick PSA here) over the years of searching for Christian tabs
myself, it is becoming increasingly difficult to find accurate Christian tabs on the
internet. People do not know what they are doing. It is frustrating and wastes time and bandwidth.
If you don't know what you are doing, please don't post the tab or the chord. I have had
about a 5% success rate on finding ACCURATE Christian tablature on the internet.
That being said, here my accurate, proper way to play Beautiful Lord, as heard on the CD.
