Here Comes the Sun Chords & Guitar Lesson

Welcome to my Here Comes the Sun chord chart by the Beatles. This song is a great finger picking song but I’m going to be going over the way to play this song with regular strumming.

The chords are simple enough. Mostly open chords and some seven chords thrown into the mix. Very doable at the beginner level if needed.
