This one is easily one of the oldest songs we have ever done as people have been singing it to their kids since 1765! The song is a basic lullaby that revolves around a 16 bar loop in 3/4. The PDF file for the Patreons includes a very basic strummer versions you can strum and sing as well but today's lesson will have both a super easy basic beginner fingerstyle chord melody versions that is geared towards people who have never played anything in this style, for simple and straight forward but still beautiful and fun to play. After that we will do a jazzier versions that has some more interesting extended chords as well as a more accurate rhythm with more of a swing groove closer to the original version.
