Tonight’s song/idea, “Giving” is in the key of F Major.

Oh, am I feeling it tonight. I took some time this afternoon to unplug and get away for a few hours. After teaching bass this afternoon, I got a late start on tonight’s tuning.

I just want to say “Giving” was not anything I wrote intentionally. I had a few ideas then this one just came out. Hope you enjoy it!

Here are the chords I’m playing while using the full version of our chord charts, which illustrate 167 chords in this tuning.
