Hello everyone, today I'm very happy for being able to bring you an all-time finger-picking favourite: Black Bird by The Beatles.
It uses very simple chords and a 2 finger-picking formulas that always has the thumb playing on the beat.
The only tricky part is the structure, even though it is A-B, there are different but similar bridges and endings, so the explanatory vids will cover almost the totality of the song.
Structure:
Intro: (3 measures)*
Verse: (14 measures)
Bridge: (4 measures)
Verse: (14 measures)
Chorus: (9 measures)
"Solo"*: (14 measures)
Intro variation: Repetitions ad-libitum.
Bridge: 4 measures)
Verse+ending: (14+8 measures)
*There are time signature changes from 3/4 to 2/4.
Hope you like it!
