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.

Thanks to Patreon supporter Mark for requesting this one! This tune was a favorite of mine in college, when many of my roommates and I would watch Donnie Darko over and over again – which features a soundtrack with this and many other 1980 songs (here's the scene with this song being used    • The Church - Under The Milky Way (Donnie D...  ).
