As The Deer

This song is really classic, and almost fits into the hymn category. I don't really know who the original singer is, so I just took the first name I found on the Internet - Martin Nystrom.

This song has a combination of plucking and strumming. First verse and chorus are plucked, while the second verse and chorus are strummed. Tabs are below.

Beautiful Daniel - thank you

There's a mistake in your tabbing. You said in your video that in the first chorus, the first D is 232000 and not 023000.

Great video though, keep up the great of works in God bro!

Hey Kuda, the instructional video did say 0232 for the chorus. I followed the guitar video though. Either way, you can play either 0232 or 0230. Both will still sound as good :) Thanks for informing me anyway!
