Guantanamera

Description

First things first, we are going to learn the main melody of our song as it's heard in the intro to our song. I am also going to teach you in this same lesson how to play the second guitar part that comes in towards the end.

Guitar #1 comes in right away playing a melody starting on a D diad, outlining the melody of this part. You will then follow that with some sliding major diads over G and A.

The second time through, you will also play a first inversion diad chord of G changing up the melody slightly before going into the first chorus.

Guitar #2 comes in during the second, simply playing D to A to G and gradually reaching a crescendo into our chorus. You want to make sure to play really soft and gradually build with the arrangement.
