Love Me Do
Lesson Goals:
♦ Review G, C and D chords
♦ Learn to play "Love Me Do"
This is another popular Beatles classic that is a 3 chord progression.
You will notice that the song structure is a little different on this one as compared to our discussion in the last lesson. In "Love Me Do" the song starts off with the chorus which repeats until it comes to a bridge section where the song changes chords.
In this type of song the bridge almost resembles a verse. Some might call this song an AABA (chorus, chorus, bridge, chorus) structure, and the Beatles were famous for writing songs like this.
There are two charts below. The first one is the main part of the song throughout the choruses. the second one is the bridge section and at this point they should be fairly self explanatory.
As always, take it slow to start and play around with some rhythmic variations.
