WWW.AZCHORDS.COM | Bob Marley - Redempition Song Chords | Ver. 1
First Tab I have done, most of the tabs i have seen on here are pretty
accurate but I added some tweaks of my own in the song, removed G/B for
beginners purpose and also added the guitar slides as heard on the Bob
Marley original version of the song. Also for more ring replace G with
extended G by fretting the 3rd fret on the B string while keeping the
same chord structure as standard G.
Unlike most of Bob Marley's songs this song uses a more standard strum
pattern instead of the Reggae strum, so this song is perfect if your
just learning guitar and like decent music.
