Allman Brothers "Melissa" - New Chord Sheet

Hello friends,

In response to the passing of Allman Brothers frontman Greg Allman, I've created a chord sheet for my 2014 lesson on "Melissa." In this tutorial, I'll take you through the beautiful open string chord changes for the verse and bridge sections, and show you some strumming techniques that you can apply throughout the tune. 

Very few bands have had more of an impact on me as a guitarist and songwriter than the Allman Brothers... and so It's with a heavy heart that I say goodbye to the "midnight rider". Greg was a world class singer-songwriter and I look forward to paying homage to his work in the coming days. Enjoy your practice friends. -Rob

Allman Brothers "Melissa" - New Chord Sheet

Outstanding. Even beginners like me can find success with your lessons. It’s such a beautiful song. Fun to play along with tossing in the little fills too under the chords.

I could not agree more, Rob. The Allman Brothers impact on me throughout my life has been enormous. So sad to see Gregg leave us.

Thank you Danny! This one is in the key of Emaj.

Great tutorial. You're playing in what key, Rob?

I think your the best guitar instructor on the internet. Your tabs and lessons are just written out excellent. I learn so much from your lessons. Thanks for this lesson on "Melissa" its beautiful

A classic... on the climb up F#m - G#m - A... playing the A at the 5th position without the bar(just the E shape) gives a real nice full sound

Hi Rob, Beautiful rendition and tutorial as always. Being one of your older subscribers I grew up listening to the Allman Brothers, one of my favorite bands. Thanks for the chord sheet update. Bryan

Big thumbs up Rob!

Great Lesson, Rob. Thanks! Loved the Allman Brothers.

Best,

My question is how do we access previous lessons? Specifically I remember one you did on Summertime quit a while ago,

Thanks for the grezt lessons. Regarding inspiration, You are inspirational to me.
