Hey Folks,
A few Tom Petty songs are ones I have been meaning to get to for years but I kept getting sidetracked (very rare and almost unheard of for me!!). Happy to finally get to Wildflowers now, with another on the way soon.
Many of Tom Petty's songs feature just a few basic chords but then include some subtle embellishments that make them really interesting and catchy... and fun to play for guitar students. Wildflowers is a great example of one of these. There are just a few easy chords (no barre chords!) that can be strummed simply and sound great. Then the embellishments, hammer-ons and pull-offs, add a bit of a challenge and good opportunity to work on more intermediate skills.
This lesson breaks down all the nuances but also shows a great way for beginners to approach this great tune.
