Manic Street Preachers - This Sullen Welsh Heart Feat Lucy Rose

this is simple to play , plucking is consistent throughout with occasional hammer – ons .
just play the bass string of each chord and the two higher strings alternately . i got this
from watching james performing it live .

capo on 2nd
