Hey guitar enthusiast! In this lesson, I’m breaking down Have You Ever Seen the Rain by Creedence Clearwater Revival — one of the most timeless acoustic classics out there. I’ll walk you through the exact chords you need (A minor, C, G, and F), plus show you beginner-friendly alternatives like the easy Fmaj7 if bar chords still feel tricky.

We’ll start with a simple eighth-note strumming pattern so you can get the rhythm flowing, then I’ll show you how to spice things up with accents and walkdowns. You’ll learn how to keep your strumming hand moving, master those smoother chord transitions from C to G, and add that iconic bass-style movement (C/B–Am–G) in the chorus.

If you’re ready to make this song sound closer to the original, I’ll also demonstrate two additional strumming patterns — one for the verse and a syncopated one for the chorus — to help you bring the song to life.

Grab your guitar, relax your grip, and let’s play along together.
