[G] Hey everyone, it's Katie with [D] One Music School and today we're going to learn
[Em] Happier by Ed Sheeran.
Don't forget to check out the description [C] box below for
my website if you'd like [G] to set up a one-on-one Skype lesson with me.
[D] Also
there is a chord chart.

They
let me know that you like these videos and that you'd like to see more.
Thank
[G] you so [D] much to my subscribers and [Em] thank you so much for your support.
[C] I
appreciate [G] you all.
Alright, [Bm] let's get into the [E] tutorial.
So this song has three
[Eb] basic chords which is awesome for beginners.
You're gonna take finger
[G] number two and you're going to place it on the [Eb] second fret [Am] of the G string.
That's your A minor.
[E] Then your transition to your F is [G] fantastic because you just
[Eb] leave that there and then finger number one goes on the first fret of the [F] E
string.
[Gm] Then we need a C chord.
You take [Eb] finger number three, place [Em] it on the
third fret of the [C] A string and that's it.
[B] And now for the counts.
We have A minor
[Am] for two counts.
1 2 [F] F 3 [C] 4 C 1 2 3 4 and that's the entire [N] song.
Now the strumming
pattern that I'm using is down up down up [G] down up down up and you could play
the entire song that way but what I've done is I have made a finger picking
part that I think accompanies the song pretty well.
So what I'm going to do is
I'm [Eb] going to show you what strings I'm plucking first and then how they fit
within the chord progression.
[C] We have C E [Am]
[E] A E so [C] it's thumb pointer [Am] middle
pointer.
[Eb] That's it and then my fingers are going to be holding a chord and then
it's going to change the finger picking pattern.
So first is going to be [C] the A
minor.
[Am] [Em] They're [Eb] all going to be open strings.
I mean my A minor is here but
I'm not [B] plucking that string so I don't need it.
Then [Em] next we have the F.
So
instead of playing [Eb] the full F you could play that if you wanted to just as a
placeholder [G] but I'm just putting finger [Eb] number one down on the first fret and I
play the entire [F] thing just like [Gm] that and then we have our C [Eb] and I play the [C] exact
same strings.
So the whole thing that I've made is 1 [Am] and 2 and [C] F [F] 3 and 4 and [C] C
1 and 2 and 3 and 4 [N] and and that's it that's [Am] everything that you need to know
in order to play the entire song.
Stick around for the play along.
[F] [C]

[Am] [F] [C]
[Am] [F] [C]
[Am] Ain't [F] nobody hurt you like [C] I hurt you.
[Am] Ain't [F] nobody love you [C] like I do.
[Am] Promise [F] that I will not [C] take it personal.
Baby [Am] if you're [F] moving on with [C] someone new.
Cause baby you [Am] look happier [F] than you [C] do.
My friends told me [Am] one day [F] I'd feel it [C] too.
And [Am] until then I'll smile [F] the [C] truth.
But I [Am] know I was happier [F] with [C] you.
Hey yeah, hey yeah, yeah.
[Am] [F] Sat in the corner [C] of the room.
[Am] [F] Everything's reminding [C] me of you.
[Am] Nursing [F] an empty [C] bottle.
And telling myself you're [Am] happier [F] [C] aren't you.
[Am] Ain't [F] nobody hurt you [C] like I hurt you.
[Am] Ain't [F] nobody love you [C] like I do.
[Am] Promise [F] that I will not [C] take it personal.
Baby [Am] if you're [F] moving on with [C] someone new.
Cause baby you [Am] look happier [F] you [C] do.
My friends told me [Am] one day [F] I'd feel it [C] too.
And until then I'll smile [F] the [C] truth.
But I know I [Am] was happier [F] with [C] you.
Hey yeah, hey [Am] [F] [C]
[Am] yeah, [F] [C]
[Am] yeah.
[F] [C]
[Am] [F] [C] Baby you [Am] look happier [F] you [C] do.
I knew one day you'd fall [F] for someone [C] new.
But if he [Am] breaks your heart [F] like lovers [C] do.
[Am] Just know I'll be waiting [F] here [C] for you.
Thank you so much.
I [E] hope you had a lot of fun learning and playing this song.
And I'll see you in the next one.
Bye.
I love tea so much.
