Concentrate at first on the correct notes and rhythms. Eventually, you can try (swing) eighth notes, but please refer to the extensive comments on this under General Performance Hints found elsewhere in the book.10 SWEET GREETINGS Siow rock ballad =72 Am G6 Fmaj7__G6/A Fmaj7_ Am G6JA — Fmaj7/A G6/A_ FOIA Se fe ee =. a G6 Fmaj7 G6 F6 Am Ge Am G6 F G Fmaj7 Ay “lB [oe $2 H3 58 ae eae DQ tes Fai?
