This tab is for a school project so apologies if anything may sound a little off.
I tried to create some harmonies and melodic lines (guitar two) to go along with
the standard way of playing this song (guitar one), so hopefully it sounds okay
for anyone else looking for a simple, fingerstyle, duet piece. :)
