Consider the Ravens Dustin Kensrue
Song : Consider the Ravens
This is by and far one of the easiest songs to play off of dustin's solo album as
its only 4 chords, standard tuning, and no capo. Please feel free to email any
Two quick note, when dustin plays his Am he likes to embelish it by hamering the
open g string to the a, and on rollup to chorus the sequence is
E--2--3--5-- B--3--3--3-- G--2--2--2-- D--0--0--0-- A----------- e-----------
Played slightly upbeat, to help maintain rhythm when you slap strings for beat,
strum as you hit the guitar (little jack johnson trick)
