More Than Words by Extreme is a classic example of fingerstyle guitar. It uses a 'pluck & thumb tap' technique for the chords in this song & then for percussive elements too!
5 tips before attempting this song:
1 🎸 Thumb tap on the thicker strings to add percussive elements
2 🎸 Thumb tap & then using other fingers to play thinner strings to highlight chords
3 🎸 Playing off-beat rhythms on the 'ands' - to a count of 1 - & - 2 - & - 3 - 4 - &
4 🎸 Changing root notes of a chord but keeping the thinner strings the same - G to G/B & Cadd9 for example
