Hey, Good Lookin' Fingerstyle Guitar Lesson

There’s just four chords that make up this song – F#7, B7, E and A. The F#7 and B7 are barre chords so you’ll need some good grip-strength to be able to play the arrangement comfortably. It also has an alternating bass going on throughout, so it’s a fantastic one to learn if you want to work on developing a strong and independent thumb.
