James Taylor – Here Comes The Sun Guitar Lesson Info
Learn how to play James Taylor – Here Comes The Sun note-for-note on guitar with our James Taylor – Here Comes The Sun Guitar Lesson.
James Taylor’s beautiful version of the Beatles classic, recorded with cellist Yo-Yo Ma, brings a gentle, reflective touch to one of George Harrison’s best-loved songs.In this lesson, we’ll look at James’s fingerpicked accompaniment — a warm, flowing pattern full of his trademark chord voicings and smooth inner-line movement. It’s unmistakably Taylor: relaxed, graceful, and quietly sophisticated.
The arrangement sits comfortably for intermediate fingerpickers, combining regular chord picking with subtle hammer-ons, pull offs, and syncopated accents that give the part its lift.
A wonderful piece to add to your James Taylor collection, and a fresh take on a timeless song.
