Smile A Day in The Life, Lennon McCartney 1967, Acoustic

Enjoy this sophisticated tune from the Beatles 1967.
This is not your everyday song.
I enjoy the places this song brings you.

Nice interpretation of a classic Beatles' song. This is not an easy song to perform solo. Great job. Enjoyed it a lot!

I really did enjoy this tune from the Beatles!
And yes, this song is quite a challenge to do, and I also enjoyed the open chords improv as transitions.
Again, thanks for your generosity and kindness!!!
Rene
