Beginner guitar lesson on acoustic
Here's a beginner friendly tutorial for this great song from 2021, which I demo on acoustic guitar (but can be played by you on electric too). Here, I mainly stick to teaching a simple open chords version of this song, but we do cover the Rock n Roll Blues riff from the original recording too.

Here's my tutorial for this song from 2018 where I demo this song on electric guitar. This video includes more riff content (07:17) and covers how to play the live intro, making this more appropriate for intermediate level players (11:17).
