Do What You Have To Do


I usually both arpegiate and strum these chords to help set a somber mood. I tried to keep the transcription fairly simple because it was originally played on piano, I did it for guitar so things will be a little different. This song was written after Sarah received some rather disturbing letters from some obsessed fans. Enjoy.
