  • Hello GMC!

    This is the traditional lullaby called "Hush Little Baby, Don't You Cry".
    I have prepared this really easy version for beginners with two variations of the theme. You will play solo and guitar accompaniment with chords and arpeggio.

    Perform the song very slowly at first, then gradually increase the speed until you master the technique.
