• Song:

    Boomer Sooner

  • Artist:

    The Pride Of Oklahoma

Instructions:
The song is originally played in B flat, but I arranged the song to be played using open
strings, which would start the song in the key of A in standard tuning.  If you wish to
the song in B flat, simply place a capo on the first fret and play the piece
 If you'll notice, my bass lines are simply alternating between the fifth and sixth
while I play the Boomer Sooner melody up and down the fretboard.  There's absolutely no
hand fingering going on with the bass line which allow the player (you) to focus your
hand only on the melody, which is what makes the song recognizable.  This is a very easy 
to play, but if you have any questions, feel free to email me.  Have fun with this
and good luck!  Boomer Sooner!
