This month's Live Lesson: "Always Remember Us This Way" by Lady Gaga from A Star is Born
At the beginning of class, we'll review last month's lesson, "You Don't Write." Music is attached to this post. Please post a homework link if you've had a chance to work on the tune!
Lady Gaga is headlining Coachella this weekend, and her live version of Shallow blows me away every time (remember our class video that went viral?). Upon revisiting Lady Gaga's catalog, I thought "Always Remember Us This Way" is a perfect lesson song! (see the original movie reference here) It's impeccably written, with only 5 chords, and it takes a lot of emotion to sing, which makes me excited to work on it. Hope to see you for the lesson and social!
Download the Attachment(s): Please look for the orange PDF link(s) below - the PDF should download immediately when you click on it.
Join our pre-lesson Zoom Social!
If you're free before the lesson begins and would like to meet and chat with other Patrons on Zoom, join me before class for a Zoom Social from 2pm to 2:25pm Hawaii Time. (We'll end the Zoom before the lesson, and still go to YouTube for the lesson).

A note about our monthly Live Lessons
My goal is to teach and arrange a lesson that is interesting for all levels. I will walk through the lesson by starting with beginner-level strumming, and gradually layer on more challenging options for advanced players.
I encourage you to play at your level, and embrace your own pace of incrementally leveling up. You can re-watch the lesson as many times as you like. Grasp the basics on the first go-round, and each time you review, you'll pick up new tips and techniques. You can use this method to become a better student and better learner - by building more awareness and more patience. :)

Aloha Cynthia! Here is my homework from last month's lesson. It is still a work in progress. I transposed the song to G because I thought it was better for my voice. My attempt of your version of the song in D is in the 100 days, but I think it sounds strained (Not your version of it!, mine!) https://drive.google.com/file/d/15MW4n_J5bfQOAguIqOKmGPjSwO4GVbdy/view?usp=sharing
