This is a Perfect - Ed Sheeran guitar tutorial with easy beginner chords, made to teach you the song as fast as humanly possible!
--------------------------------
Capo: 1st fret
IMPORTANT NOTE: I made a mistake in the video: You actually only play each of the chords in the chorus for 2 beats instead of 4.
[Verse 1]
G Em
I found a love for me
C D
Darling just dive right in, and follow my lead
G Em
Well I found a girl beautiful and sweet
C D
I never knew you were the someone waiting for me
[Pre-Chorus]
G
Cause we were just kids when we fell in love
Em C G D
Not knowing what it was, I will not give you up this ti-ime
G Em
Darling just kiss me slow, your heart is all I own
C D
And in your eyes you're holding mine
[Chorus]
Em C G D Em
Baby, I'm dancing in the dark, with you between my arms
C G D Em
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song
C G D Em
When you said you looked a mess, I whispered underneath my breath
C G D G
But you heard it, darling you look perfect tonight
G D Em D C C D D
[Verse 2]
G Em
Well I found a woman, stronger than anyone I know
C D
She shares my dreams, I hope that someday I'll share her home
G Em
I found a love, to carry more than just my secrets
C D
To carry love, to carry children of our own
[Pre-Chorus]
G Em
We are still kids, but we're so in love, fighting against all odds
C G D
I know we'll be alright this ti-ime
G Em
Darling just hold my hand, be my girl, I'll be your man
C D
I see my future in your eyes
[Chorus]
Em C G D Em
Baby, I'm dancing in the dark, with you between my arms
C G D Em
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song
C G D
When I saw you in that dress, looking so beautiful
Em C G D G
I don't deserve this, darling you look perfect tonight
[Interlude]
| G | % | Em | % |
| C | % | D | % |
[Chorus]
[Outro]
G C D D G
I don't deserve this, you look perfect tonight
G D Em D C C D D G

When I was just a kid I kept saying that playing guitar is easy But now god damn that's hard

True 😂

[@trinhpham6518]

That’s easy. You should try to learn guitar cuz it’s really fun and all the chords in this song is very simple for newbie

[@mhd_hmouda1055]

Well I thought music was hard until I played guitar, It's actually so much easier than violin for example, trust me guitar is not as hard as you think

[@DivaPawIndonesia]

@@mhd_hmouda1055 True. I thought of getting a violin before guitar, but my mind said "Don't! You better learn guitar first then violin", didn't regret buying a guitar first lol

[@brianfenimore1609]

Great beginner lessons! I started learning guitar in January 2021, beginning with buying a new set of Martin extra light strings and stringing one of my son's guitars by myself. I learned to tune the guitar myself after that, and found my first KZbin beginner lesson for "Where do the Children Play" by Cat Stevens, using only 4 chords. I'm going to be 59 yrs old this year, and it's always been a dream of mine to learn to play. My 25 year old son has been playing for 10 years and he's impressed with my progress. This will be my 5th song I want to "master" after 3 months of playing. Well, at least play well enough to play and sing it for my wife. My goal is to be a VERY GOOD amateur guitarist by the time I retire in 5 or 6 years. To all those learning out there like me, you CAN do it! Pick up the guitar every day even if it's only 10 minutes! Be patient with yourself and keep learning from awesome, realistic, teachers like Kurt!

[@Grape_Juice6]

Great i am new too

[@hazeraforth4449]

Thank you. I have been learning theory and the guitar for a while and don't get enough practice but this is really motivating and easy to follow.

[@user-qx5cs9co6y]

I have watched many tutorials on how to play this song, Kurt nailed it. His way of explaining chords and strumming is tremendously helpful. I really love the close ups, one does not have to use binoculars to see the chord changes and strumming patterns. Thank you Kurt...

you litterately need to slow your entire timing. listen to the song as you sing it while AIR struming. then your muscle memory will correct you without you noticing till your already doing it. you should only notice yourself sing. this is what i did to fix my issue with it

[@Matrix-lr2pb]
