STIF UPPER LIP LYRICS

How to play STIF UPPER LIP LYRICS by Unknown on guitar

This song is a good beginner pick because it stays steady and lets you focus on clean chord changes at a comfortable pace. It feels direct and repetitive, so you can lock into the groove without having to manage anything too flashy.

You get mostly open shapes here, with just a couple of harder barre shapes mixed in. The main thing to watch is the quick move between A and Am, since that change can catch your fingers off guard if you do not keep the hand close to the fretboard.

Start by looping A and Am until the switch feels smooth, then add the rest of the open shapes one at a time. After that, bring in C#m and F#m slowly, and only then play the full progression at tempo once the changes feel automatic.

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.
