We learned quite a bit about specific guitar techniques this week, so let's
try to put some of these principles into practice, while still having some
fun! As usual, you can find about 200 other songs to play in the easy
song tabs archive.
If you need a refresher on the chords we've learned so far, glance
over the open major and minor chords, power
chords, 7th chords, barre
chords, and sus4 chords.
Hash Pipe -
performed by Weezer
NOTES: this
was the clip used in the illustration of palm-muting. Lots of chunky
power chords to play. Make sure you keep the palm mute happening! Although
playable on acoustic, this is more suited to electric guitar.

Better
Be Home Soon - performed by Crowded House
NOTES: A
very nice song, with a fairly large assortment of chords. This one is
perfectly suited to acoustic guitar.

Desperado -
performed by The Eagles
NOTES: A
bit of a challenge, to be sure. Originally played on piano, this one
has LOTS of different chords, almost all of which you probably already
know.

Stairway
to Heaven Guitar Solo - performed by Led Zeppelin (Jimmy Page)
NOTES: for
electric guitarists only. Okay, so this isn't easy, by any standards.
But, we've gotta start somewhere! Be patient, and give this a shot -
bit by bit.
