About This Lesson

In this video I’ll show a tutorial for the intro riff of “Linger” by the Cranberries. This is a super approachable riff using only two chord shapes, which are based off the D-major chord. Super beginner friendly! Check it out. Tabs are included in this video.

Looking for a full Linger Tutorial?

You’re in luck… I made one in 2024, a full six years after this original video was posted. My newer version (shown below) teaches the entire song, including chords and strumming for the verse and chorus sections. Watch it here:
