--4/4 // BM // Allegro (pretty quick)
--head so "jagged" and wide in its range, melody at times had to be
transposed up/down an octave. . . .
--fingerstyle or pick-&-3-fingers easiest; plectrum strums'll work
if yu' deaden "x" strings with sides of adjacent fingers. . . .
--note durations:
/ quarter note
/- eighth note /-. dotted eighth
/= sixteenth note
/_/_/_/ tied notes
[hey, _I_ understand it!--I think. . . .]
