Hi Everyone,
Here is my version of this classic song
Help me make it through the night

I use only a guitar for the backing. I have acoustics Guitar on my Mac which is a software guitar made form many gigabytes of samples and I played it from T5. You play chords with left hand and control the strums with right hand. For this song I used a very simple strum pattern. Bass note on first beat, down and up strum on 2nd beat, 5th of chord on 3rd beat and down and up strum on 4th beat. It is the first pattern I learned when learning guitar. You can control the number of strings which are strummed. I used 6 strings for down strums most of the time and just top few strings for up strums but I did vary this as I played. Also I varied the position on the guitar the chord was played.
I did do this live playing the guitar and singing which made it difficult so the result is a bit like a novice guitar player hahahah. You can play more sophisticated patterns with hammer ons etc but I need more practice for this.
Hope some of you enjoy it.
Best Regards
Jim
