Galveston for the Baritone Guitar
Glen Campbell
written by Jimmy Webb
Baritone tuned to A or capo 1st fret and play in B
This is for the original recording in F. Glen played this in F#, D,
or any place he felt like depending on the preformance.
Here it is played in C for the Bariton Guitar
It changed over the years as to the riffs he played and whether there
was a baritone guitar playing with him. This is best played with
barre chords. I encourage you to try barre chords, sometimes the
capo chords just don't sound right, especially when you get higher
on the neck. Broaden your range, you'll be amazed how easy it is
with practice. Plus chord changes are easier.
