This Town Guitar Tutorial – Niall Horan

In this lesson we show you how to play “This Town” by Niall Horan.

The chords are all fairly simple and the ones with funny names are actually a bit easier to play than the usual campfire chords: G, Em7, Cadd9, Dsus4, Am, G/F#.

After, we go over some tips on how to switch between the chords and then show you a strumming pattern that uses the thumb and index finger to do something halfway between strumming and fingerpicking (just like he does on the recording).

Finally, we take you through each section of the song – the verse, pre-chorus, chorus and bridge – and go over any trouble-spots (like the simple bassline riff he plays during the bridge which involves “rolling” your strumming fingers over the strings.

This Town Chords: G | Em7 | Cadd9 | Dsus4 | Am | G/F#
