Default "Forrest Gump" Main Theme / fingerstyle version

Hi folks, this is my simple fingerstyle guitar version of the "Forrest Gump Theme". The melody was composed by Alan Sivestri and brings back many wonderful memories of this wonderful film in me.

I hope you like my simple version and have a good weekend,

Jimmy

That was wonderful and I thoroughly enjoyed it! Yes, that movie has so many of our real life experiences woven through it, there is a moment for everyone to relate to at some point.

I really like you using that Fender acoustic now and then. I feel vindicated when talented players use underdog equipment! Good on you!
