Here's how to play Song 2 by Blur on guitar!

This song uses power chords to play the entire song and is an essential electric guitar riff to learn! This video is party of the Andy Guitar Band Program where after following the tutorial below you can jam along to a full live band with Andy in the video! This aims to help those who struggle to jam along to full songs and to also help those who have the ambition to play in a band one day. I hope it helps!
