No Capo Required. In this video we look at how to accompany some common and some less common Bulerias letras. We do it all Por Medio (also sometimes called Por Fiesta) and we look at not only the chords, but also the right hand patterns you’ll want to master in order to stay in compás while accompanying Bulerias.
LETRAS
Porque yo me fui contigo
Tu te habías creído
Que yo me iba con cualquiera

Voy pa la plaza
Vuelvo al instante
