Before he can see the sky?

How many ears must a man have

This song is so damn easy ...
Only 4 common chords ... G, C, Em and D ...
The same strumming pattern goes on for the whole song ...
But yet it sounds so awesomely great ...
That is the magic of DYLAN ... i guess :think:
This goes out specially for all the beginners here at IGT ...
