[G]
[G] [C] [G]
[A] First, [Gm]
[G] [D] [G]
[Eb] let's learn the main two chord progressions that you need to play this song.
[Ab] And after that, we'll talk about strumming [Db] patterns and we'll also talk about some different
rhythm techniques you can use to make your playing sound [Eb] a little fancier.
So let's check out the first chord progression that we need.
This is the verse chord progression and we're going to play through it [Gb] with a basic boom
chick strumming pattern.
[G] Boom chick, boom chick, boom chick, boom chick.
Pick strum, pick strum, pick strum, pick strum.
Just like that.
And later on in the lesson, we'll make our strumming a little bit fancier, but for now,
let's just work through this progression [C] with the boom chick pattern.
[Em] So here we go.
Let's play through the [G] verse progression.
G, G, G, G, [C] C, C, [G] G, E, E, E, G, [D] D, [G] D.
And that is the verse chord progression.
[Eb] Now let's play through the chorus chord progression.
[E] And this [F] one's real similar, but just slightly different chord progression [Ab] here.
Let's play through it with the boom chick pattern.
[G] G, G, G, [C] G, C, C, [G] G, G, E, E, G, E minor.
[D] G, D,
[G] G, G.
And that is it.
[N] Those are the main chord progressions you need and if you get [E] those down, you can play
the entire song.
Change it up a little bit here and there and we'll talk about some different techniques
you can use to [Db] make that sound a little bit fancier and more interesting.
[B] But if you just wanted to play through this song with the basic boom chick pattern and
[Abm] sing along, [Gb] that's cool and it's going to sound awesome.
Let's go over very quickly, for those of y'all that need a little refresher on this boom
[N] chick pattern, I'm going to show you the bass line notes, the alternating bass line notes
that I'm using over each chord.
Those of y'all that already are familiar with this stuff, feel free to skip forward to the
next section of the video where we start talking about the little fills and chord embellishments
and the [G] song intro.
