artist : john lennon
song : “imagine” ( live )
album : acoustic ( 2004 )

this is exactly how john plays “imagine” in the live version that is included on
the 2004 acoustic compilation album . i Am 100% positive that this is 100% correct ,
and it’s also the best transcription from piano to acoustic guitar that i’ve heard
of this song . enjoy!
