Oh, by the way, the chords aren't played in basic position. For
example use a D by barring the fifth fret and using the remaining fingers in an
"A" formation. Try fooling around with alternate chord shapes at different
parts of the neck and throwing in some hammers-on to more closely resemble the
recording.
This is the introduction for Cat Stevens's "Moonshadow. If you keep at it long
enough you should be able to play this part and sing simultaneously. Good luck.
