Oh man i got this in my email last year i think. This is great!
For those of you who are interested the Guitar Chords for this song are..
G major / E minor/ C major/ D major/ back to chord G major.
Strum is D DU UDU x 2 for G and E same strum x 1 for the rest of the chords.

I play this on my guitar all the time...i love this song, and the movie.

Thanks O! =)

Sweet! Is there a website for the backstory?

Just yesterday I ran across Eric Whitacre's project for a global "virtual choir" (similar concept applied to a different genre).

I have searched several times and not been able to find anything about it. I would love to see something that tells how it all got together and a little bit of info about the people performing in it.

Either my search terms are wrong or there isn't anything out there.

The Virtual Choir site looks interesting. :hehe

Oh, I found something. I put Washboard Chaz as a search term and wiki has some info about it.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Playing_for_Change

Check out some of the other links in there. Also try putting Playing for Change as a search term.

Thank you so very much! (now that I am crying) I saw this a while ago and lost it. I didn't know the name of it and hadn't seen it again until today. This fits very well with the GimpChat ideology!

Here is a link to one that works for me. Don't know if it's the same one you posted or not, Pogo.
