For this lesson, we’ll show you how to play the rhythm guitar part for the bridge of “My Girl.” We’ll be employing the same accented, staccato strumming that we’ve been using throughout the song, and adding in some new chords and rhythmic changes to get us to the third verse.

You’ll be playing:

  • C, F, Dm, Em, G and A chords
  • Quarter note strum
  • Eighth note strum
  • Accented strumming
  • Fret hand string muting
