Welcome to Throwback Thursday’s where I teach you a classic hit from the last 4-5 decades! This week we have a recent track – A Thousand Years Guitar Tutorial by Christina Perri. A really great easy song for beginners with basic chords and an easy strumming pattern throughout the whole song!! Also a really great picking pattern in the verse and outro if you want to challenge yourself.
Enjoy! Like the video and subscribe to the channel for more videos in the future!
