Hello all! Here's my own transcription of Violeta Parra's wonderful "Gracias
a la Vida".
This is a truly beautiful song: it's hard to pick between the lyrics and the
harmony.
Playing the song is really easy once you have memorized the chord sequence,
which is repeated
throughout the song. I recommend you practice the first 5 verses until you
are comfortable
enough with the chord changes and then you won't even need to read the chords
to play the whole song.
This is why I only wrote the chords for the first 10 verses. Have fun and
post any correction
suggestion in the comments :)
