Lesson notes

At the request of a student I thought I'd look into putting together an instrumental arrangement of John Lennon's tune Dear Prudence, which was released on their 1968 album The Beatles (aka The White Album). I was surprised how well the bass line and vocal melody came together, with all the bass notes on the bottom three strings and the melody notes on the top three strings. It turned out to need very little left hand movement, although there are a few somewhat unusual finger configurations.
