It’s simple but adds a great effect to the chord progression. As a small bonus, I’ll also teach you a fun baseline you can use while playing the verse. We’ll continue by learning the verse chords and chord progression, which is a staple of Dock of the Bay. We’ll kick off our (Sittin’ on the) Dock of the Bay tutorial by learning the intro, which is really just a few notes. TIP: Get together with a guitar buddy and play this song together, where you play rhythm, he/she plays the harmonizing solos. These solos should be played over the rhythm guitar chord progressions we already learned, they harmonize really beautifully. We’ll first learn every chord progression played by the rhythm guitarist, and in the second part, we’ll be learning the solos played by the 2 nd guitarist.

And not just the chord progressions, but the solos played by the 2 nd guitarist as well. Our Dock of the Bay guitar lesson will teach you how to play all of the guitar parts to this incredible song.
