Chord arrangement: G | G-C | G | D-G | G | G-C | G | D-G // Em | D | Em | D | Em | D | C | D

Very basic arrangement. B-Part could also be: Em | D | C | D-Em | C | Bm | C | D-Em |

Irish Bouzouki: Thanks, that's cool! (1 like)
Adam: I thought this would be a good example to show you a situation where you can actually insert more bars that the sheet music. As you can see, before your chords are injected, the A Part shows only 4 bars, albeit repeated. Then, once injected, this section expands. This currently only works for single lines with both start and finish repeat signs. It also requires that there are no variant endings. Something useful to know. Cheers
