In this video, I teach you the strumming pattern featured at the beginning of the song “Wonderwall” by Oasis. This is a very popular song among guitar lovers, but many players struggle to perform it correctly. This is because the rhythm features a lot of syncopation, which is just a fancy way of saying, the chords change on irregular and unpredictable beats.

In fact, of all the popular guitar songs I’ve taught over the years, “Wonderwall” ranks as one of the most difficult to play accurately. For this reason, I do not recommend this song to beginners. This song is better left to intermediate players on up who already have lots of experience using open position chords to strum along with a variety of songs.

For those of you who are ready for this level of playing, I’m going to break down the guitar part and show you how to put it together correctly. This includes when to use downstrokes, when to use upstrokes, and when to play on the beat and off. By following my instruction here, you’ll not only get a portion of this song down, but you’ll learn important details you ought to know about music, rhythm, and strumming.
