Canyons and Caverns by Shawn Mullins
Chords:
E(022100) Esus4 (033300) B (799600) A (577600) F#(244300)
C#m ( 446654 ) ASUS2 ( 002200 )
As you see you play the Barre? chords with open BE- strings. I don?t know if the chords
have other name.
It?s a little bit difficult to play the E and ESUS4 chords like Shawn do. Listen to the
song and you
it out.
This way to play the song is close to the original.
