Fast Car Tracy Chapman

Welcome to this step by step tutorial on how to play Tracy Chapman's classic hit "Fast Car" on acoustic guitar. It's super easy to learn. It is presented here with a capo on the second fret, as Tracy Chapman plays it. Once you learn it a little, I suggest you turn down playback speed to 0.75 and try practicing along with Tracy on KZbin!
The main part of the song is built on a single riff, which you will learn in detail. Tab is shown on-screen.
The chorus uses a few basic chords, and chord diagrams are shown on the screen, and described in detail.
This song sounds fantastic, but is much easier to play than you expect. A great choice for someone just getting started with fingerstyle.

As you start to get this one together, visit with Tracy on KZbin, adjust the playback speed to 0.75, and practice along with her. I promise it is a very helpful practice tip! kzbin.info/www/bejne/d3qycp-XdqiorJY
