Hey everyone! I'm totally new to guitar and just started working on some Leonard Cohen songs. I love the vibe of "You Know Who I Am" and the Am to Bm transition is giving me a nice challenge! It's so cool to see how simple chords can create such deep emotions in music. If you're a beginner like me, don’t be afraid to dive into these classics. It really helps with learning finger placement and rhythm. Can't wait to get this one down! Happy strumming!
