In this easy step-by-step lesson, we’ll play it in the key of D, using just three chords: D, G, and A7. No barre chords, no key change, no F chord — just simple, singable goodness.

🎶 This song was featured in my “5 Classic Country Songs for Older Beginners” — and now you can play and sing the whole thing, start to finish.
