A traditional minor walk

About 6 minutes

This walk through Am, C, D and F comes from a traditional American folk song more than a hundred years old. It is in 6/8, so count one two three, four five six.

F is a barre chord. If it is not ready yet, play only the top four strings: index across the 1st fret of the B and high E, middle on the 2nd fret of the G, ring on the 3rd fret of the D.
