Sting - August Winds - аккорды

[ Предположительная тональность: C ]

Lots of beautiful chords underpin this song from Sting's 2013 The Last Ship album.

This tune is picked - Sting tends to pick the bass note then two or three higher notes,
so for each of the chords I've indicated just the strings that he picks on the piece -

I hope that it makes sense!

Standard tuning, Capo 2
