Finger Picking Lesson 2

In this lesson I will show you a finger-picking chord progression based on what you learnt in the last lesson: Finger Picking 1

The same technique is used here and we will assign the same strings to each digit. i.e:

Thumb: Low E string and G string
Index finger: B string
Middle finger: E string


Apologies for the poor video quality. Our camcorder is broken so we filmed this using a phone!

Get The Tab

This example uses similar picking to the last example. Instead of using just a D chord, the following chords are used: Em, C, Am and D. There are a few extra notes added in to give it some varition. These come before every chord change in the form of a G, F# and E on the high E string.

Make sure you can play the right hand part perfectly and the rest of the song will follow.

Check out Stairway To Heaven by Led Zeppelin and Tears in Heaven by Eric Clapton. Both of these songs are great for practising finger picking.
