Gabe Bondoc - Summertime

original song/video :

gabe bondoc switches between half – step tuning and standard tuning .

these aren’t the exact chords that gabe plays , just the ones i use . i think
they’re decent enough to play along , though . have fun!

Bm7 amajor Em7 gmajor Gadd9 Aadd9

i’ve been thinking about you
to know you , trying to get you off of my mind
i’ve tried and every time i try i fail
to make any progress

Bm7 amajor Em7 gmajor Gadd9 Aadd9

in a busy yet beautiful way , hey
