Practicing Tips

Our learning resource 'There is a Time' provides flatpicking guitar tablatures in Melody - No Capo, Melody, and Bluegrass Styles, ideal for beginners. Key components discussed include vocal song, medium-tempo, and minor key.


For an optimized learning experience, this course encourages the use of the Tunefox platform's features. The Lick Switcher is a significant aspect of Tunefox that allows you to add new licks and reveal the song through different lenses. With the ability to change the licks for individual measures, the tool enables you to creatively interpret the song. You simply need to tap a measure to uncover the hidden licks it contains.


The Arrange slider is another beneficial feature that sets your desired difficulty level with precision. By moving the slider to the left, you can cut out excessive notes and get a straightforward, core arrangement displayed in the tablature. Swiping it to the right reintroduces the 'fill-in' notes to provide the full, extravagant song arrangement.


Additionally, by using the tempo slider, try playing the song at different tempos. This feature can enhance your musical adaptability.


Engage with the provided backing tracks for a fun learning experience. Choose certain measures to focus on and repeat them. The 'Speed Up' feature gradually raises the tempo, progressively getting you comfortable with faster playing. Begin at a comfortable tempo, and let the 'Speed Up' feature gradually increase your tempo after every repetition.


Remember, personalizing your learning process with these dynamic features can significantly enhance your understanding and mastery of the song. Happy playing!


There is a Time lyrics

There is a time for love and laughter

The days will pass like summer storms

The winter wind will follow after

But there is love and love is warm



There is a time for us to wander

When time is young and so are we

The woods are greener over yonder

The path is new the world is free



There is a time when leaves are fallin'

The woods are gray the paths are old

The snow will come when geese are callin'

You need a fire against the cold



There is a time for us to wander

When time is young and so are we

The woods are greener over yonder

The path is new the world is free



So do your roaming in the springtime

And you'll find your love in the summer sun

The frost will come and bring the harvest

And you can sleep when day is done



There is a time for us to wander

When time is young and so are we

The woods are greener over yonder

The path is new the world is free
