Baby Can I Hold You is the third single from Tracy Chapman's self-titled album of 1988. It has been a radio favourite ever since and covered by an amazingly diverse range of artists from Luciano Pavarotti to Boyzone.
The D major tonality makes it ideal for performance by guitar ensemble.
⦁ In this arrangement, Guitar 4 plays with a drop D tuning (6th string to D).
⦁ Guitar 3 plays the chords which Chapman performs on a steel string guitar in the original recording. The chord B minor is required during the song which is a second position barré chord. Some players may choose to substitute it for a B minor 7 chord fingered as shown in the preface, which avoids the need for a barré. Chord symbols are given in the Guitar 3 part intended for non-readers who may wish to strum an accompaniment.

I hope you enjoy performing Baby Can I Hold You as much as I enjoyed arranging and recording it.

Best wishes from France, Dan Jones, February 2024.
