HALF A DAY AHEAD
HOOTIE & THE BLOWFISH
NOTE: I prefer playing this song using Barre chords as there are some
slides used in the song and also it is easier to use those then
open chords in some of the parts. However, the choice is yours.
INTRO: To me there are two guitars playing the INTRO.
GUITAR 1 is playing chords while GUITAR 2 is
playing notes. However, I did offer an
ALTERNATIVE so you can play it on one guitar.
