NOTES:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Songs are listed for various reasons. Most obvious are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1) It\u2019s just a hard\/fast play (i.e. Art Is Calling For Me, The Beauty Is, Franklin Shepherd Inc)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2) Some random tempo changes that you need to be familiar with (i.e. Proud Lady and The Millers Son).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3) Sometimes the harmony doesn\u2019t go where you expect it (i.e. My White Knight and Vanilla Ice Cream)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4) Songs where you JUST have to get to grips with the chords (i.e. any of City Of Angels, Moving The Line)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
