[D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
You have a very famous piece, _
the Air on the G-String, which is _ truly one of his most beautiful pieces.
It is, it is, but it's beautiful and worth real focus.
Did you do this transcription?
_ Yes, I did. _ _
Every piece I did transcriptions _ myself,
because I think it's important _ I study the score and I do the transcriptions
so I know each note, why each note is there on the score,
so I know how to _ play them.
The singing quality of the guitar, I mean that must be,
certainly with a pianist that's the most important thing,
somehow to fool the string into lasting longer than it really does.
Is that the hardest thing?
I think it's the hardest thing on the plucked instrument.
Actually it's harder than piano because you have pedal.
_ That's true.
We don't have pedal, so I think on the plucked instrument
to make it sing it's most difficult and it's very important.
What is the secret to that?
The secret is your _ _ _ _ desire to make it sing.
You have to sing _ in your heart and that will _ _ take your hands,
your fingers _ _ closer to where you want. _ _
