------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Wake Up Lovin' You - Craig Morgan ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by:Adam Shiltz E-mail: [email protected]
Tuning: STD capo 1
INCREDIBLE SONG BY CRAIG MORGAN When you see D(root) in the beginning of the first verse just pluck the open D string (4th string). If you listen close to the record he starts the second verse with the D5 and the first verse with just the open D, which of course in this case is a D#. In all of the verses each note is only strummed once, just play along with the track and you'll get it.
Also, I've tabbed the timing down of the notes with the words very closely, so as long as you can keep a beat, it should be right on.
