(Late Beginner Level) Learn the guitar part to this Beatle’s classic without using music, tab, or video. The lesson includes a full demonstration of the guitar part followed by a detailed “note-by-note” and “phase-by-phase” lesson describing frets and fingering completely “by ear!” You will also learn two different ways to play the unusual picking pattern that Paul McCartney used on the original recording. This lesson is rated at a late beginner level, which is suitable for most first-year students of the guitar.

Bill Brown began teaching music when he was in middle school alongside his mother, who was a respected classical piano teacher (Piano Teacher’s Guild Hall of Fame Recipient). In the mid 1980s he started recording lessons for his students to take home to learn “by ear.” He discovered that learning songs without any print or video helped his students develop their ability to pick out other songs “by ear” as well. The By Ear catalogue has rapidly expanded till now it includes over 1400 song lessons for more than a dozen instruments. Brown resides in South Georgia with his wife, also a music teacher, where he teaches and records lessons in his own private recording studio.
