Guitartricks - How to Play - All Those Years Ago (George Harrison)

Mike will show you the 3 guitar layers in this song. Guitar 1 is a clean electric guitar that forms the strumming foundation of the tune. Guitars 2 and 3 are clean electric guitars that play melodic fills and licks with a slide.

The arrangement features 2 distinct sections: The verse plays a busy series of chords that form the main progression of the song, while the bridge uses a more straightforward progression. There is also plenty of harmonized slide lines that play in between the vocals throughout.

In the following lessons, we'll talk about barre chords, diminished chords, a triplet feel, steady strumming, and some tasty slide guitar. We are in the key of D major, with a 4/4 time signature, at a tempo of 125 BPM.

To play this tune with one guitar, play Guitar 1 all the way through!
