Wait For Me by John-Allison Weiss
Wait For Me
Capo:3rd fret
Capo 3, in D# maj. You're going to have to know some basic finger-picking to
play
this song. If you really want to, you can use the flick and slap technique,
which
is very nicely explained here:
Chords used:
C F G Am E
0 1 3 0 0
1 1 3 1 0
0 2 0 2 1
2 3 0 2 2
3 3 2 0 2
x 1 3 x 0
A few more notes, there are little hammer-ons she does on C, Am, and G during
the
verses. If you listen to the song they're rather prominent. All you've got to
do
is unfret that specific string (for C and A it's the D string and for G it's
the A
string) and hammer back on in eighth notes. Another thing, during the verses
there's this little chromatic line that moves up a fret from the G chord to
the G#
note, then rests on Am. All you have to do is move your finger up the E string
from fret 3 to fret 4 on beats 1 and 3 before making the switch.
