Subject: CRD: Mother and Child Reunion by Paul Simon

This is one of the first songs I ever 
learned, it is quite beautiful. This is 
a post of how I remember figuring it out 
about seven years ago. I am not sure if all 
the lyrics are correct. It is arranged 
for a nylon string acoustic guitar playing 
mostly open cords.
