Version 1 Version 2I’M ON MY WAY F#-G means simply: play the F# barchord and slide to the G bar chord. When you get good at this, you can fit it into the song in different places (Particularly the beginning of each of the last four lines of each verse…give it a whirl…it’s easy…and sounds super spiffy!) Listen to the song for the rhythm. You basically just bounce off the strings the whole way through the song.
