In today's guitar lesson we learn how to play The Beatles- Day Tripper. The riff and chords prove to be an excellent lesson for any beginner. The riff is a nice blues based riff which is within the mixolydian mode. We also cover some music theory aspects of the riff and chord progression. The tab also includes the instrumental melody bit in 6th intervals.
