???? Hey everyone! In this lesson, I’m teaching you how to play “In My Life” by The Beatles — one of my absolute favorite songs to play on guitar. This tutorial is packed with fun elements, including a beautiful hybrid-picked intro, multiple strumming patterns, and some cool chord variations that really capture the feel of the original.

We’ll start by going over all the chords you’ll need — from simple open shapes like A, D, and E to a few barre chords such as F# minor and B. Don’t worry if those barre chords are tricky; I’ll show you easier alternatives like B7 or even a B power chord so you can still play along confidently.

Then, we’ll break down the iconic intro step-by-step so you can get that classic Beatles sound using some light fingerpicking and hammer-ons. I’ll also guide you through the strumming patterns for both the verse and the bridge so you can play the full song from start to finish.

Whether you’re a huge Beatles fan or just looking to expand your repertoire, this lesson will help you bring this timeless tune to life on your guitar.
