After many requests, I’m please to bring you all this lesson for “Last Christmas” by Wham. I’ll teach the basic chords, explain some strumming pattern options, and show a few ways to spice things up with some simple chord voicing modifications. I hope that you’ll be able to pick this one up quickly and run with it. Best of luck!

Buy at Musicnotes.comWant to play this song using different chords?
I made a follow-up lesson featuring this song, where I show how you can use a capo to play this in 4 different keys. This can be incredibly helpful if you want to avoid barre chords, or otherwise prefer to embrace different chord voicings.
