Blackbird Guitar Lesson - S8
Play the full 2nd guitar part for Blackbird with TAB and two videos—first to learn it, then to perform it together like a band!


Blackbird TAB | Complete Song (2nd guitar)


It’s time to play Blackbird as a full duet.

Below is the complete TAB for the 2nd guitar part. You also have two videos to guide you:

  1. In the first video, I play the 2nd guitar part exactly as written in the TAB.
  2. In the second video, I only play guitar 1, so you can join in with your part—just like we’re performing it together live.

Use these to lock in your phrasing, tone, and timing. This is how real musicians rehearse and build chemistry!




Next time, we dive into more fingerstyle magic with Tears In Heaven by Eric Clapton.
