Can't You See Chords & Guitar Lesson

This is my Can't You See guitar chord chart by the Marshall Tucker Band. Very very simple song in that it is a 4 chord chord progression. That means the ENTIRE song is only 4 chords played over and over again.

If you can play the 4 chords below, you can play this entire song with ease. You can check out the video below where I go into a little bit of detail about the song. I love using this song with my beginner students because it’s usually something they can pick it up pretty easily.

I also have a play along video for you to practice with as well. See if you can keep up!
