Every guitar player should have a rock and roll standard in their arsenal, and the Rolling Stones’s “Honky Tonk Women” totally fits the bill. This Stones hit mixes rock 'n' roll strut with country honk. Today, we’ll unpack Mick Jagger and Keith Richards’s classic track, from the opening riff to the closing chords. We’ve created a simplified version that will allow you to practice everything from string muting to syncopated strumming.
