The Water Lets You In

Free download on SoundCloud.

Bloodline (2015-2017) is a Netflix original thriller-drama. The series co-stars one of my all-time favorite actors, Ben Mendelsohn. The theme song, The Water Lets You In, is a deep-bayou Americana riff by the defunct LA band, Book of Fears.

I LOVE how this piece turned out for guitar. Irrespective of the show (or the theme song), I really try to make guitar arrangements that stand on their own as something special. The Water Lets You In was excellent source material.

Gear used

For this piece, I used my Cordoba C7 Cedar. It's a big and deep sounding guitar that was perfect for the Bloodline theme. You can find a current list of my gear here.

The guitar tab for The Water Lets You In is beautifully written across two pages. I recommend this song for beginners guitar players (and up) as the fret positions are fairly easy. You'll never have more the two fingers on the guitar at once. Enjoy, the guitar tab is available below:
