"Somewhere Over the Rainbow" Guitar Lesson for Solo Performance

Hello friends, 

and welcome to another by request song tutorial! In today's session I'll be breaking down my interpretation of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" by Harold Arlen and Yip Harburg. I'll begin by showing you a stylish double stop intro, then I'll breakdown the chord progressions and a variety of walking transition lines. Let's get started!

Nice Chris! Glad you're digging my approach to this one, I'm sure your wife will love to hear it from you. Enjoy your practice.

Awesome man! One of my favorite songs and my wife's favorite song of all time! The intro is awesome! I see me learning this for her for our anniversary!

Hey Ron, glad you're happy with this one, thanks for the positive feedback!

Hey Pam, so glad you're pleased with this one. Yes, this will sound great on acoustic, though that little finger tap trick I did at the end might not work so well. Have fun! -Rob

Thank you,Rob!! Great song and arrangement with different skills to learn!! By example "tapping"!!

Rob, you made my day! This is my all time favorite song. I'm surprised I didn't request it. You're interpretation and singing are beautiful. I can't wait to get started. It should work fine on acoustic too, right?
