Blue Skies

You’ll be delighted to see how easy it is to learn to play Blue Skies. Though it was written in 1923 by Irving Berlin, it waited for many years to hit the number one spot. Willy Nelson was the only performer to sing this song and to make it a number one hit. Blue Skies is simple to learn on the guitar because we show it to you in a one-four-five pattern. There are some extra chords, all easy ones, in the song. In the key of F, we will add Bbm, Dm, Dm7, G7, Bb, A7, and C7 to the root chord (F). The chords are arranged in a very simple pattern and learning Blue Skies takes only a few minutes.
