Song Tabs

 "Get Together" is a classic song from the late 1960s, known for its uplifting message and gentle folk-rock style. The original version features clean, ringing guitar chords and a laid-back rhythm, making it accessible for beginners.

## Chords and Progression

The song uses only four chords: A major, G major, D major, and E major. These are all open chords and are among the first most guitarists learn.

## Strumming Pattern

For a beginner, a simple down-down-up-up-down-up (D-D-U-U-D-U) pattern works well. Focus on keeping a steady tempo and light touch to match the song's relaxed feel.

## Chord Transitions

The main challenge is the transition between A and G. Practice moving your fingers efficiently between these shapes. For smoother transitions, keep your strumming hand moving, even if your fretting hand is slightly late.

## Song Structure Tips

Verses alternate between A and G, while the chorus uses D, E, and A. The instrumental and intro sections repeat the A-G pattern. Take your time with the A-G switches, as they recur throughout.

## Additional Tips

Try muting the strings slightly with your palm for a softer sound, especially during verses. If singing, play a little quieter behind your voice. With practice, you’ll capture the gentle, communal spirit of the original recording.
