Easy Happy Birthday For Guitar

 

Happy Birthday is a great song to learn, and one that everyone can put to use.

Begin with an easy version, like the one presented here, then add bass-line runs or additional chords as your skills improve.

The chord forms are shown at the top of the music. If they don't make sense to you, read an explanation at Common Guitar Chords.

The melody is shown in the musical notation. For a quick intro to reading music, the article on Basic Music Theory might help.

The lines and numbers under the lyrics are guitar TAB. See the Guitar TAB Guide for a complete explanation.

Enjoy!
