Wild World Chords & Guitar Lesson
Welcome to my Wild World chords and guitar lesson by Cat Stevens.
This a great song and it has some fun little fills that you can add in if you choose. But strumming along if perfectly fine too!
This lesson will focus mainly on the strumming aspects of the song. I will add a couple of the little licks in on the video lesson.
