Dont Wake Me Up


Love this song. I learn by ear, it's hopefully reliable enough. ;) Though the directions may be a bit confusing (my mind's a mess on paper), I wish you the best of luck with this awesome piece. Tuning: Standard, CAPO 3 (Numerals are the actual frets, NOT distance from the capo. I.E. '3' is an open) HOWEVER. Chords will be written with respect to the capo, for simplicity's sake, but the tablature will show the actual fret positions.
