"Purple Rain" Chord Sheet and Video Tutorial!
🕑 Added 2016-04-25 22:38:35 +0000 UTC Hello friends,Today, I'm departing from my usual schedule to pay respects to Prince, who passed away suddenly this week. The loss of this great artist is a huge blow to the music community, especially to the international guitar community. Prince's contribution to the instrument is astronomical, and so I'd like to take time this week to celebrate his music by playing his songs and studying his techniques.
In this lesson, I'll break down how to play "Purple Rain" on guitar. I'll take you through the chord progressions for the verse and chorus, and teach you a strumming pattern that will work throughout. Let's get started!

Hi...i may have two left ears but---- when you play the demonstrations you use D DD UUD DUDU and when you break the chords you use D DD UD DUDU? Why the second "U" is taken off the rhythm? or is it me?
Thanks Great lesson, I have a slighter whiter version than yours. Any way to get some idea's for lead and solo to accompany?
I really enjoy your lessons Rob. Is is possible for you to do U2 Stuck in a moment and Ordinary Love?
Great lesson!
Hey Anne-Marie, I'm learning the solo tonight and hope to teach a lesson on it very soon. Keep a look out!
Can you show use some embellishments for the solo please? Thank you.
