Learn how to play Time for Me to Fly, as performed by REO Speedwagon released as part of the 1978 album "You Can't Tuna Fish".
The lesson covers the 4 guitar parts that makeup the arrangement on their record. The acoustic (Open D tuning), and the three electric parts, each complimenting each other perfectly in this timeless classic.
