Acoustic Guitar Instrumental

Song is played in dadgad and written for my 92 year ol grannie who is still alive and well and so active its hard to keep track of her.

this song is played in DADGAD playing over the top of the neck and using only a bit of percussion and tapping.

Song is called Choiwaru, and was written during a Japan Tour with Masa Sumide. Choiwaru is a fairly new word in Japan that means " a bit rogueish". Looking in the mirror in the morning was the deciding factor to keep the title.
