Run to Paradise

Choirboys - Run To Paradise Standard tuning Tab - Lokki - TheSmokinGum www.facebook.com/thesmokingum Ok guys - here is how we play Run To Paradise. I've played this along with the recording and it sounds damn close! But any comments or corrections that get it closer are welcome! I have done my best to get the chords in time with the words, you need to listen to the song to get the strumming, as some come in on the off beat, especially the A's starting each bar. OK - Some NOTES! The song uses mostly A E D E, but we use a combo of barre chords, open chords and modal chords to get the sounds to different parts of the song.
