Bruno Mars – Just The Way You Are (Full Lesson)

Introduction:

One of Bruno Mars’ early hits, this is a very simple song that utilises only three chords and a basic strumming pattern.

This lesson will also teach some picking, however this might be challenging for some students. Focus on the chords and strumming for the time being.

**NOTE: This video contains an error in the guitar tablature for the picking. Please use the tablature that’s at the end of this lesson (scroll down!)
