Backtrack 102j in G

This week's giveaway is a re-recording of Jam Session 102j, without your Jam Session hosts talking over the music.



Like Jam Session 102j, the chords of this Backtrack are G D Bm C, but the chord changes of this new Backtrack are slightly syncopated.  In other words, if we're counting "1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and..." as our rhythm, the chords would go something like this:

G and 2 D 3 and 4 and Bm and 2 C 3 and 4 and...


    G     D Dsus4         Bm    C/E
e |-3-----5-5-----------|-4----------------------|-----------------|
B |-3-----7-8-8-8\7-----|-3-3-3--5---------------|-----------------|
G |-4-4-4-7-7-7-7-7-----|-4-4-4--5-------5h7h5---|-----------------|
D |-5-5-5-7-7-7-7-7-----|-4-4-4--5-5-7-5-------7-|-----------------|
A |-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-----|-2-2-2-/7---------------|-----------------|
E |-3-3-3---------------|------------------------|-----------------|

Play along, solo over the chords, and have fun!
