I have always loved this Beatles song, the entire tune is a hook! If songs can be catchy, this one is hooking a whale. The tune is in a 6/8 time signature, which gives it a sing along feel. The verse of the song is comprised of some standard chords while the pre chorus offers a cool walkdown. In the chorus, there are a few other neat chords as well. This lesson will help you learn to strum the song with increasing levels of difficulty. Play this tune at the level that you are comfortable with, then move up as you go.
The 6/8 Time Signature is counted 1 2 3 2 2 3.
Level #1 Strumming D 2 3 for each chord. One Strum per chord.
Level #2 Strumming D D D for each chord.
Level #3 Strumming D DU D for each chord
Level #4 Strumming D DU DU for each chord
