Hey guys, welcome back to another lesson! Today, I am going to show you how to play this Ethnic/World Music chord progression on the guitar. I wasn’t sure about the music style, and it took a while to figure out.

Three elements are vital to this chord progression:

• Pedal tone technique: Keeping the same bass note over different chords.
• Galloping rhythm: The fingerpicking pattern provides a quite Ethnic rhythm.
• Over-ringing melody: Blend in the melody within the chords.

There are a few challenging things you should consider while practicing this music. 1) The fingerpicking pattern should be played as evenly as possible. 2) The melody should be louder than the accompaniment. 3) Some of the chords can be stretchy.

Start by learning the intro. In this section, you can focus on the rhythm and fingerstyle pattern. Then, move on to the verse when you feel ready.

Enjoy this lesson and, have a lovely weekend!
