Rise to the Sun Alabama Shakes
<i></i>When playing this, before you say the A sounds funny, *notice* I play the barre A
higher on the neck at the fifth fret instead because it sounds like it does in the
song. Still don't believe me? play the root notes. It's definitely A. Listen to
the song to get the strumming patterns, they're fairly simple. Enjoy!~daydreamin'
