Redemption Song - Bob Marley - Chord Melody (Patreon)

Today we are doing a chord melody version of one of Bob Marley's most classic and iconic songs "Redemption Song" in the chord melody style. Because of syncopation there are times when the melody and the song are a little tricky to get the exact timing down, but that is what the tabs are for. On the screen we have all the tabs, for the chords as well as the melody and lyrics so you can see exactly how it all comes together. The key to getting it down is just taking it slow and playing it note fore note, bar for bare, measure for measure and you will master the song as quickly as possible. For some people that will be an afternoon, some people a week, some people more, just make sure that you are consistent and you keep working on it until you've learned the whole song. I see a lot of people work at it for a day or two and get most of the song but move on and don't take the day or two more that they need to really master the song, you can do it, just stick with it!
