Little Wing – Jimi Hendrix Tempo: 70 bpm Tuning: Standard Chords Used: see “all chords” file *Sorry about the vocals in this song. I was JUST getting over the flu, which later turned into pneumonia, and I was just barely able to get by. The song is still there though – just don’t listen to my singing! ☺ Strumming Pattern: DDD, DU Note: You’ll see a * (asterisk) on the Am chord. When you take a look at the PTB score of this song, you’ll notice that he actually throws in an inverted C chord, which is also displayed in the lead intro below. This is what makes the Am NOT sound so much like an Am before the transition to the next chord. It’s not a huge deal, but I did this to show you – and give you a pointer on ALL of the Am chords in this collection of Hendrix songs. He does it VERY frequently, so you can easily interchange this when you feel like it. Other than that, I only included the asterisk on this song to keep you from getting too confused.
