Description

In this video we're going to be learning the intro and the outro of the song, on acoustic guitar. This part is easy! In the intro we're just going to be strumming an open G major chord. Keep your strumming relaxed; note how the bass line rolls along nicely and follow that.

For the outro we'll still be strumming the G chord, but then we'll shift to an open E major chord. Play the G chord for 3 bars, and the E chord for a bar. This outro section has the famous whistling part that we'll teach you on guitar at the end of this tutorial.
