How to play Here I Go Again-Lyrics-Whitesnake by eggs712 on guitar

This song is a great beginner pick because the groove is steady, the tempo sits in a comfortable mid-range, and the progression feels familiar right away. You get a strong, driving feel without needing flashy technique, so it is a good one for building confidence and keeping your rhythm solid.

Most of the chart uses open shapes, which makes it easier on your fretting hand. The only harder shape shown is Cm, so watch for that change and make sure you land it cleanly before moving on. The opening run moves C - G - D - Em, so the main challenge is keeping those switches smooth and even.

Start by looping the opening progression slowly until the shapes feel automatic. Then add the harder Cm change on its own, and finally play the whole song with a steady count at a relaxed pace. Once your hands know the moves, bring the speed up little by little until it feels natural.

Use the play-along above to follow each chord change in time with the music, or learn the shapes first with the chord diagrams below.
