The Beach Boys "God Only Knows" -- how to play it on the guitar with easy chords
Maybe the most beautiful song ever written, deserves to be learned on the guitar, especially since the chords are very easy
Paul McCartney once said that "God Only Knows" is the most beautiful song he's ever heard. Wow, when McCartney says something like that, we'd better sit up and listen!
I have worked earlier today on figuring out the best way to play this song on the guitar. It requires some specific chord inversions (some which may not feel like the most natural way to play those chords), but this way the sound gets quite close to how the original song goes.
Tune in for the next episode where I’ll do the detailed, step-by-step breakdown on how to fret and finger each of the chords I played in this tutorial video!
Apologies for my croaky voice — this week I got afflicted by the infamous “man cold” (i.e., the worst imaginable agony, comparable only to a very difficult childbirth!)
Literally hearing this and
Don't worry baby
earlier :)
