Hey friends! In this lesson I'll teach you how to play the 1988 song "Under the Milky Way" by The Church. The song combines slight hints of late 80s New Wave / alt rock sounds, along with multiple acoustic guitars (one of which is a 12-string, another being capo 5). I'll focus my tutorial on a solo acoustic version, played without capo, that best captures the combined sound of everything you hear on the album version. Chord-wise, things are fairly straightforward: A-minor and a few variations, Fmaj7 (easy!), G, and E-minor make up the bulk of what you'll be playing. Strumming can be tricky, but I'll break it down carefully and show a simplified version if you want something more accessible. Finally, at the end of the lesson I'll do a full playthrough to show you how to put it all together. Here's timestamps for my video lesson: - 0:00 Lesson overview - 2:55 Intro chords - 8:19 Intro strumming - 10:18 Verse chords & strumming - 13:11 Simplified strumming pattern - 14:19 Chorus & refrain - 15:45 Misc tips & advice - 18:07 Full playthrough




In this Under the Milky Way guitar lesson video, I will show you how to play all the chords to this massive 80's ballad by The Church. The tuning is standard tuning, E A D G B E. What I am attempting to achieve with this transcription of "Under the Milky Way", is to sort of combine all of the guitar and bass parts into one playable part that sounds like the original recording but that can be played by just one guitarist. On the original recording there is a 12-string acoustic guitar capoed and the 5th fret, along with other non-capoed electric and acoustic guitars playing mostly open position chords. With all of that going on, once the bass guitar enters halfway through the first verse, it changes the harmony quite a bit. So this arrangement combines all of that into one easily playable guitar part. I hope you guys enjoy learning this awesome 80's classic! Carl...
