Amie Chords & Guitar Lesson by Pure Prairie League

 

Welcome to my Amie guitar lesson by Pure Prairie league. I will be going over the guitar strumming patterns as well as the guitar chords used to play Amie.

You can scroll down for a detailed video lessons on how to play Amie on guitar which details the strumming patterns and how to play the intro. While this song hands on the A, G and D chords a lot, I would consider this lesson a little more in the early intermediate realm.
