I’ve been slowly applying myself to learning the knowledge in Koand’s groundbreaking audiobook How To Play Guitar And Y - available on audible. I always tried reading music and the idea here is to take a looser approach. By learning a few chords and listening, we can find an entry point into guitar playing. I have tried many times to learn guitar and I always did give up in frustration so I value this production very highly. Koand references many songs and suggests that the tune La Mer AKA Beyond The Sea is not all that difficult to learn on guitar as only 4 chords are required to play it.
"Beyond The Sea" Lyrics
Somewhere beyond the sea
Somewhere waitin' for me
My lover stands on golden sands
And watches the ships that go sailin'
Somewhere beyond the sea
She's there watchin' for me
If I could fly like birds on high
Then straight to her arms, I'd go sailin'
It's far beyond a star
It's near beyond the moon
I know beyond a doubt
My heart will lead me there soon
We'll meet beyond the shore
We'll kiss just as before
Happy we'll be beyond the sea
And never again I'll go sailin'
I know beyond a doubt, ah!
My heart will lead me there soon
We'll meet, I know we'll meet beyond the shore
We'll kiss just as before
Happy we'll be beyond the sea
And never again I'll go sailin'
No more sailin'
So long, sailin'
Bye bye, sailin'
Move on out, captain
