'Gethsemane (I Only Want To Say)' by Jesus Christ Superstar - Guitar Tutorial
Gtp аккорды: Gethsemane (I Only Want To Say)
Текст песни:
(IMHO this is probably THE most powerful piece in the entire show. A true
perfect blend of Lloyd-Webber and Rice at their finest! This is a
difficult tune to put into ASCII, mainly because the bulk of the piece is
arranged orchestral, and even on piano it´s hard to capture the magic of
this work... here goes nothing... ad lib where deemed appropriate)
