The song Aadat, by the band group Jal, is one which will give you supreme satisfaction if you are an acoustic guitar player. Using simple chords like Asus and Dm, it creates a starting tune which is now very famous in Bollywood. My guitar teacher came out with these tabs and I think they are as good as perfect. What do you think?
The song uses only three basic chords…
Asus (032000)
Dm (132300)
Bb (133300)
The interesting thing is the arpeggio generated with these chords as follows.
