When playing a full on strumming pattern as you would need playing Oasis 'Wonderwall', small dynamical changes in your pattern are essential in order to not sound like a drunk in the Pub.

Spytunes version of 'Wonderwall' is a one guitar arrangement.

Since the original version has a full band, some changes have been made to make this sound good on one guitar.

Using the DIY TAB, write down the basic pattern, then ad the small embellishments such as individual bass notes that you see at 0:17.

The bridge section with it's IV V progression lends itself very well to both changing the strumming pattern and holding back on the beat. 

Practice Rhythm Guitar

In order to get 'Wonderwall' right you might want to practice with a metronome.

If you do, ask yourself:

  1. Can I tell when I go behind the beat?
  2. Can I catch up with the click again?

Make sure that every little change you make to the strumming pattern has a purpose to serve the song.

Write down your conclusions and share them with other members in the forum.

Finally, upload a version of yourself playing 'Wonderwall' to youtube.

This way you can get feedback on your own performance!
