Hey friends! Here's a lesson showing you how to play the Ben E. King classic "Stand By Me" with an acoustic guitar, no capo, key of C. Notably, I'm deviating from the "official" key of this song (Key of A) in order to prioritize an "easy to play & sounds just like the song" arrangement, which I trust you'll find helpful. I break the lesson into two halves: (1) learning the intro, and then (2) learning how to strum the verse & chorus sections. Here's timestamps for my video lesson:

0:00 Lesson overview
2:10 Intro riff: the basics
9:13 Intro riff: adding percussion
16:02 Verse & chorus strumming
23:46 Full playthrough

I hope you enjoy!
