While My Guitar Gently Weeps

Description

There are 2 guitar layers in this song. Guitar 1 is an acoustic guitar that lays the foundation of the tune with some steady, consistent strumming. Guitar 2 is an electric guitar that plays rhythm, fills, and leads throughout the arrangement.

The arrangement consists of 2 distinct sections: The verse features a beautiful descending progression in A minor while the bridge modulates to A major with another great chord progression.

In the following lessons, we'll talk about steady acoustic strums, open and barre chords, and some killer rock lead work. We are in the key of A minor and major, with a 4/4 time signature, at a tempo of 115 BPM.
