Advanced Acoustic Guitar Song – You’ve Got a Friend by James Taylor

This lesson includes several videos on how to play You’ve Got a Friend by James Taylor on acoustic guitar.  The song was actually written by Carole King, but James Taylor made the song popular. This song is a bit more advanced, so if you are a beginner just starting out, you may find this too challenging.   I recommend you start out trying some easy acoustic guitar songs here first.   Be sure to scroll down past the video lessons below as I have also included the original song as performed by James Taylor and Carole King.  Enjoy!
