  • Hi everybody and welcome to my new lesson!
    In this lesson I'm gonna show you my arrangements for the beautiful "Greensleeves" melody.
    I play it on the electric guitar, but it works beautifully with a classical guitar or acoustic guitar as well!

    This was one of my favorite melodies to play when I started playing guitar, and a great way to get familiar with the sounds of the A minor natural scale and A melodic minor scale.

    The picking is only down-strokes.

    A minor natural:
    A AEOLIAN MODE

    A melodic minor:
    A MELODIC MINOR SCALE

    Practice and memorize each part independently and then try to connect the different segments and play the melody as a whole. have fun!
