Lead Sheet

Dreams - Fleetwood Mac

It is a simple song to play with a band, but quite challenging to make interesting when played with a guitar only, as it is the same thing almost the whole song.

Below the Lead Sheet is the music sheet for the lead guitar for the whole song. There is delay, reverb and he uses a volume pedal to get the notes to come out ghostly sounding by starting with no volume or very little while plucking the note and increasing the volume when the notes resonate.

Welcome to the Working Week - Elvis Costello

This song is fast and uses a lot of Barre Chords. It is very short, but still has three verses, two and a half choruses and a bridge; it’s quite impressive.

What's Up - Four Non-Blondes

This is a great strumming song. Note that on the last beat of every measure, she removes her fingers to get to the next chord, that is what gives this strumming pattern its iconic sound. Below the Lead Sheet is the music sheet for the Lead Guitar that plays throughout the song.

Torn - Natalie Imbruglia

This is a good strumming song. In the recording there is a main acoustic guitar written below, but there are also a few other electric guitars play arpeggios of the chords in the pre-chorus and a simple repeated pentatonic pattern in the chorus (D - F - D - G - D - F - D - G - D - F). The solo at the end is played with a slide and the notes are F - C - D - A and on the third time he plays F - C - D - F - D - A.

Yesterday - The Beatles

In the recording, Paul McCartney played with his guitar in Standard D Tuning (D,G,C,F,A,D) , but in his performances with the Beatles, they played it in Standard E Tuning. This song is played in a fingerpicking style where your thumb plays the bass note of every chord and your fingers play the other strings, mainly the 4th, 3rd and 2nd strings.

At the end of the song, Paul plays the D8, C#8 and C8 in a C chord shape and alternates with an open G string. It’s a little bit like in Blackbird.
