"Northern Sky" by Nick Drake

Riff Rundown

Difficulty:Intermediate

This riff is set to 76 bpm ( beats per minute ) with a capo on the third fret. The tuning is as follows : C, G, C, F, C, F.

Intro

The intro to this great riff isn't too difficult. The timing here is key, but you shouldn't have any trouble with the fingerings. Just remember to take it slow at first, as this riff does have some strange picking arrangements.

Verse

The verse to this is easy, but the strumming is not. Here, just try to strum open three times at the end of the first measure within correct timing. For the second measure, try to strum open five times as well within correct timing. Practice that before trying to play the entire two measures together.
