Rolling Stones Miss You Guitar Lesson
Ever tried to explain a song real quick to some bandmates or fellow musicians for a jam?
Well, if you have, you’ll notice this cold truth I am about to tell you right now…
Songs with simple structures and not a lot of chords are best for this…
Think about it. If your bandmates don’t know the song is it easier to explain a complex tune with a bunch of twists & turns?
Or is it easier to say, “Hey the chords are G, C, and D, and it repeats this same part over and over.”
The answer is the ladder.
Now today’s lesson is not quite as simple as that.
But it’s pretty close…
And that’s why this song is played at jam sessions and in cover bands all the time…
Because musicians can pick up the meat of the song pretty quickly.
And then just get to the PLAYING!
So that’s what we are going to do today in the Miss You guitar lesson.

Who Wrote Miss You?
"Miss You" is a classic rock song by the Rolling Stones, one of the most legendary rock bands in music history. The song was primarily written by Mick Jagger, the band's lead singer and frontman, and their guitarist Keith Richards. It was first released as a single in 1978 and then later appeared on their album Some Girls.
The song was recorded at EMI Pathe Marconi Studios in Paris, France, and Electric Lady Studios in New York City, USA.
This song marked a significant shift in the Rolling Stones' sound, embracing elements of disco and dance music, which was different from their typical rock and blues style.
"Miss You" was a hit. It got widespread acclaim at its release and was a commercial success. It topped the charts in various countries, including the United States and the United Kingdom. The song's innovative blend of rock and disco elements, along with Jagger's distinctive falsetto vocals, contributed to its lasting popularity.
The main melody is based on a bluesy pentatonic riff, and then this is set over the funky groove.
"Miss You" has been covered by many artists, and is a jam band song for sure. Especially since the majority of the song is just two chords.
