Shapes with a capo on fret 1.
How to play it
Down and up
Count in threes: down, down-up, down-up. Lean on each first down so the sway comes through.
Picked
Pick the bass note, then the top three strings together twice, in threes. Soft and slow.
Make it easier
Capo 1 matches the record. Move it up or down to suit your voice.
Four easy chords in a waltz feel, for anyone who wants something recent to sing.

Guitar lessons
Learn with a teacher
A teacher hears what you can't: the strum that's rushing, the finger muting a string, the habit that will hold you back in six months. No website or app can do that part.
I'm Daniel, aka WCHIWA: a producer, composer and guitarist, and I've taught thousands of students. Bring any song you love and I'll arrange it to your level on the spot. No grade books, no fixed curriculum, and when you're ready, we record it in my studio. In London, Maidenhead and online.
