Hey, friends! In this week's lesson I'll teach you how to play Melissa, the Allman Bros classic from 1972. I'll break down the chord shapes, talk about the progression & rhythm, and show you a few different strumming options (for both beginners and more intermediate players). This is one so many of you have requested over the years... it's been a joy to learn, and I hope you enjoy!

In addition to my main video lesson, I've also created a few additional tutorials for those of you who want to go deeper. The first of these videos gives a **vocal melody deep-dive** where I walkthrough the melody notes being sung, and show you the actual process I used to figure these out. I also have two **slow strum-along** videos available (one using a simple strum, the other using the "full" strum). You can use these if you want to play-along with me at a slower tempo, with a close-up view of my guitar, and tabs shown on the screen.

As per usual, I have a hand-made song sheet available for this song (as separate purchase). It's 5 pages, print-friendly, and gives you everything needed to play the song. Lyrics, chord shape help, strumming patterns, progression, and the vocal melody tab are all included.

Thanks all!
