Elton John – Your Song
Learn how to play Elton John – Your Song note-for-note on guitar.
Difficulty Level: Intermediate
Bar Chords: Yes
Thumb-Over Chords: No
Playing Style: Fingerpicked (Travis picked)
Tuning: Drop D
This is an arrangement of the Elton John classic for acoustic guitar and voice in the key of D (which suits my voice better). While it obviously follows the chord progression of the original, it isn’t intended to replicate his piano part note-for-note.

Hi Alain. I’ve taken a look again at the play thru video and I seem to be playing what is tabbed. Definitely 0203. 0202 would make the chord Dmaj7 which wouldn’t sound quite right.

hello Jerry,
Thank you for this very nice TAB
At the 12th bar (Chord D under”you” ) it is written 0 2 0 3 but I think you play 0 2 0 2
Don’t you ?
Alain
