The Beatles 2023 - Now And Then

This one caught me by surprise as I was in the middle of a couple other lessons. Now And Then is a beautiful John Lennon composition that was just released thanks to AI and modern technology. I didn't really plan on a lesson for it until I started messing around with playing an instrumental version. I didn't get specific with tab for the solo version but did talk through my thought process a bit.
Thanks to Peter Jackson and technology developed for his Get Back documentary, Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr were able to resume work started in 1994 on John Lennon's demo of Now And Then. The progression is fairly basic but quintessential Lennon with a beautiful melody and touching lyrics.
This lesson starts with a solo instrumental version, then goes into how to strum through the progression with a section on the arrangement. The last segment goes into how he creates fingerstyle instrumentals.
