Tras la desintegración de The Beatles, Paul McCartney forma su nueva banda en 1970, "Wings", junto con Denny Lane y Linda McCartney, su esposa. Todos sus discos, fueron verdaderos éxitos en el Reino Unido, Europa y Estados Unidos. Wings siempre estuvo presente entre los primerísimos lugares de las listas con hits como "Another Day", "Maybe I'm Amazed", "Admiral Halsey", "1984", "Jet", "Live and Let Die" (para la película del agente 007 del mismo nombre), "Silly Love Songs", "C Moon", "Monkberry Moon Delight", etc.
Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!

There are plenty of acoustic guitars on the recording. If you have a partner to play along, the second guitar can use a capo and play different chords but still has the same key as the first one - sounds really nice. So here's a chord sheet for the second guitar:
Capo: 7th fret Play: D / G Key: A / D
