He Is by Ghost - Acoustic Guitar Lesson

Here is my guitar lesson on how to play an acoustic version of 'He Is' by Ghost.

The song is taken from the band's 2015 release, 'Meliora'.

My transcription was based on both the album version and this live performance.

A beastly grip that I heard today from @nickjohnstonmusic in his piece ‘Atomic Mind’. Tuned in Eb standard, it opens with this and then slides down a half step to a Bb major barre chord (Root 6th/E-shape). Trademark Johnston sounds and a toughy for the fretting hand. This is my preferred grip, but you could try finger 3 on string 5(A). Give it a try and then go and listen to Atomic Mind. Inspiring stuff! 👍🏻🙏🏻

And we’re back! It’s good to be home. Could barely play though when I got back. It’s like when you go back to school and can’t write! And 50,000 followers 🤯🤯😃😃 Thanks as always to each and every one of you for being here. Plenty more guitar theory goodness coming your way very soon 👍🏻🙏🏻

It’s Friday so there’s a new video on my YouTube channel to check out. This week I’m sharing some content from ‘TRIADS: Inside Out’ and we’re looking at a great exercise to help memorise your open (or spread) voicing triads. You can check out the video with the link in my bio @rynaylorguitar 👍🏻🙏🏻. As always, TABs for this lesson are available from my Patreon page.⁣

🚨🚨 NEW VIDEO ALERT: A question that I often receive on my IG feed is what is the difference between a sus2 chord and an add9 chord? Why is the major 2nd a '2' in the sus2 chord, but it's a '9' in the add9 chord? This week I'll hopefully clear up the confusion over the sus2 and add9 chords and give you some new ways to play these two chord types. Video link in bio 👍🏻🙏🏻

CLICK MY BIO LINK FOR A NEW VIDEO LESSON. It’s Friday so new video day and this week I’m breaking down the Finger Independence chart that’s been so popular, and showing you some essential exercises to add to your warmup or technique sessions. Link in my bio @rynaylorguitar 🙏🏻🙏🏻

It was Adrian! (AKA Anyone Can Play Guitar) @acpgtr He’s a super teacher with a great YouTube channel and a very cool garden studio that I was lucky enough to visit today. Definitely give him a follow and check out his lessons on YouTube 👍🏻🙏🏻

Anyone guess who I had the pleasure of meeting today?
