In this guitar lesson, now available on YouTube.com, Claude Johnson teaches how to play Time of Your Life by Green Day.
In this part two of two guitar lessons, Claude teaches how to play Time of Your Life by Green Day. Claude starts off by reviewing what was covered in part one, the chords and strumming. Next he discusses the “three steps to learning any song,” which are: 1. learn the chords, 2. learn the chord progression, and 3. learn to play the complete song. All of the chords used in this song are from what Claude calls “the seven basic chords;” the chords used are G, Cadd9, D, Em, & C, split into three chord progressions. The first chord progression is G, Cadd9, & D played as: two bars of G, one bar of Cadd9, and one bar of D. The second chord progression is Em, D, C, & G played as one measure each chord. The third chord progression is Em, G, & D played as one measure of each chord in the following order: Em, G, Em, G, Em, G, D. Claude reviews all of the progressions once more and then puts it all together. You can learn all of this and more by going to GuitarControl.com/beginner.
