Chords Needed

Colter Wall's 'Cowpoke' is surprisingly easy to play, requiring only three chords. These are not very difficult chords too, with only the F a bit of a challenge:

C Chord

You form this chord shape by placing the following:

• your index finger on the first fret of the B string,
• your middle finger on the second fret of the D string and
• your ring finger on the third fret of the A string.

Strum from the fifth string down, omitting the sixth string. Give that a try and see how the chord rings. 

F Chord

The F chord can be played in two forms, barred or open. Depending on your preferenc...

Good morning Guitar Friends! It's pretty crazy how quickly this month (and this year) has flown by. I've been busy learning, recording, editing and just trying to get as many guitar lessons done as I can.

Some of you know that other than teach you how to play your favorite country songs, I am also a hunting guide. This is going to be my 24th year guiding elk and mule deer hunts in New Mexico. It's something that gets me outside, in the mountains that I love. The tough part about it though, is that I'm away from home and way to busy to doing guitar lessons. To keep the lessons coming to you through hunting season, while I'm away, I'm working really hard right now to get a bunch done to get me through those several months. Many of the lessons I've recorded this month won't be seen on YouTube for a few months!

I hope you know I appreciate you so much. I love country music and being able to do these lessons for you. It makes me really happy to hear when I've helped you or just that you e...

Need more help learning to play 'Beautiful Crazy,' a song by Luke Combs? This easy guitar lesson may just be what you need. Best of all, it's free. 

Here, learn step-by-step how to play the song, from chords, strumming patterns, embellishments, and how to put everything together. 

Guitar Chords Needed To Play This Song

Get A Capo Ready

To play Luke Combs’ 'Beautiful Crazy,' you will need a capo. A capo clamps the fretboard to raise the pitch of the strings, allowing you to sing and play the song easier. 

For this song, put in the clamp on the 4th fret. Remember to clamp closer to the fret line for your guitar to make a more accurate sound and have less string buzz.

Since we have a capo on, we will count the fret position for chords from the capo, not the guitar nut.
