Description

There are 2 guitar layers in this song. Guitar 1 is a clean electric that plays some R&B influenced rhythm guitar stabs throughout. Guitar 2 is an acoustic guitar that provides a sparkly layer of strummed chords.

The intro comes in with an electric piano riff that establishes the groove while Guitar 1 adds some chord stabs on the backbeat. This vibe continues through the verse.

There is also a chorus section that maintains the same groove while adding a little more activity. The bridge sections provide the biggest dynamic arc of the song with a rising chord progression and amped up strumming from both guitars.

We'll also include a bonus lesson that shows how to play the electric piano riff on guitar!

In the following lessons, we'll talk about barre chords and open chords, backbeat rhythm, and some steady acoustic strum patterns. We are in the key of C major, with a 4/4 time signature, at a tempo of 96 BPM.
