LESSON 6 — The OUTRO
The outro brings the song to a gentle close and is based on the same chord progression as the bridge.
You’ll play C – G – A7 – D7 – G, repeating this sequence twice as you sing the final lines. The familiarity of this progression helps create a natural and satisfying ending to the piece and is the same chord prpgression as the bridge section - played twice.
Focus on keeping your strumming relaxed and even, allowing the chords to ring out clearly. As you reach the final repetition, you can slightly soften your dynamics to give the ending a more expressive, settled feel.
Take your time with the phrasing here — this section isn’t about speed, but about control and musicality.
