By Jim Fusco:
I received an email today from Mike H., who just watched my cover song music video of the Beach Boys’ semi-unreleased song, “Soulful Old Man Sunshine”. What a great song it is- it’s hard to believe they put so much effort into a song and then canned it for years. Anyway, Mike was wondering what the chords to the song were. So, I decided to post them here on the music blog for all to see! Also make sure to check out my cover song video of “Soulful Old Man Sunshine” below the chords and lyrics. Thanks for writing, Mike, and I hope this helps!
