Guitar & Piano Playing Tips

The opening flute/harmonica riff can be replicated on guitar with hammer-ons and pull-offs. The bridge modulation to the minor subdominant (Dm) is the emotional climax of the song — make sure to give it extra dynamic weight. On piano, this is a showcase piece — play the melody in the right hand with full, sweeping arpeggiated chords in the left for maximum drama. Great for our piano class students!
