Do you want to know how to play eyes blue like the atlantic on guitar<\/strong>? Are you looking for an easy, beginner-friendly song to learn on guitar? Look no further than singer-songwriter Maren Morris’s hit single “Eyes Blue Like the Atlantic.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This tune is perfect for those just starting with guitar playing, as it can be picked up with practice and repetition. Let’s go over the basics of playing this song so you can impress your friends in no time!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Play Eyes Blue Like the Atlantic on Guitar<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The song starts with a simple four-chord progression in the key of G major. The chords are G, Cadd9, D, and Em7. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These four chords form the basis of the entire song\u2014you’ll use them throughout. To start, place your index finger on the 3rd fret of the low E string (the thickest string). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Put your middle finger on the 2nd fret of the A string (second thickest string) and your ring finger on the 3rd fret of the high E string (thinnest string). That’s your G chord! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Move up to the 5th fret and form a Cadd9 chord by putting your index finger on that 5th fret and leaving your other two fingers open. Then move up to the 7th fret and make a D chord by placing your middle finger on it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, move down two frets and make an Em7 chord with your index finger on that 5th fret.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now that you know these chords, it’s time to start strumming along! The strumming pattern is fairly simple; downstrokes only, but each chord gets eight beats before transitioning into another one. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Between each chord change, there’s a slight pause followed by two or three muted strums before switching to a new chord. This will help make sure you take your time with switching chords! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once you’ve mastered this basic strumming pattern, you’ll be ready for more complex ones\u2014but for now, let’s focus on getting this down first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
