Craig David - Rise and Fall

play the riff in different positions. Also with a capo. Choose which one you play.

During the Bridge the guitar plays riffs on chords on the background, I can hear
the guitar playing some notes together with the vocals, but I think you should
find your own way of playing in the background on these chords:
D C#m7 Bm7 C#m7
D C#m7 Bm7 Esus4
After the bridge, you play the main riff a half step (one fret) higher.
The song is like this:
Intro (4x the riff; first 2 times are only guitar & background vocals)
Verse (4x “ )
Chorus (2x “ )
Verse (4x “ )
Chorus (2x “ )
Bridge
Outro (4x “ , then 2x only guitar & background vocals, ending on a Gm)
