Shield Your Eyes Dry the River
Tuned down a full step!!
This is beautiful song and real fun to play.
This is based off the acoustic album version.
No plucking, just strumming. But you can pluck if you want.
Listen to song for rhythm and timing.
Lots of breaks and kicks.
The lyrics and chords are correct. Have fun.
