Sound Of Sunshine - Michael Franti This song isn't out yet, but he's been playing it live and it will be the cover track of his next album called "Sound of Sunshine." He plays it with simple strumming and it goes to a simple rhythm, there is an equal amount of time from each chord to the next, that is why there may be one Bb followed by another. As for the actual chords, some of them are barre chords, so I will tell you which one is which. Bb barre 6th; F barre 8th; Eb barre 6th; Cm barre 3rd; Gm barre 3rd; the F in the Bridge is a regular F barred on the 1st fret. Intro: Bb Bb F F Eb Cm Bb Bb Verse:
