    Green River Guitar Lesson: Tips and Tricks for Blues Rock Players
    If you're a fan of blues and rock guitar, then this “Green River” guitar lesson by Creedence Clearwater Revival (CCR) is perfect for leveling up your skills.
    This song skillfully blends the two styles of music and adds a swampy feel for good measure.
    I’m going to break it down for you step-by-step so when you're done you'll have an awesome version that will sound great for accompanying yourself, playing along with the recording, or even jamming with other people as well.
    Who wrote Green River?
    "Green River" was written by John Fogerty for the American rock band Creedence Clearwater Revival. It was first released as a single in July 1969, one month before the full Green River album was released.
    The song was written about a vacation spot on Putah Creek, near Winters, California that Fogerty used to go to as a kid.
    Green River Chords
    You’ll only need to know 3 chords to play “Green River” and they are E7, C, and A.

    Excellent! I learned this from my guitar teacher way back when the group was still together. I was only learning chords though and you added all the bass and lead fills. Still a great song to hear and play.....

    Great lesson! There's just one thing that pretty much everyone misses out when teaching or covering this tune, which is the changes on the main Riff after the first "chorus". The main Riff keeps varying during the song, after each chorus, which to me this is what adds that special spice to tune. So, hope it could be a nice to know info. 🎸🎶💪🏻

    Fogerty plays the opening and first-position fill licks with index on the 5th string (B note) and middle-ring fingers on 3rd-4th strings (D and B notes) respectively. See the 1970 Royal Albert Hall footage.

    Hey John, if you suck at finger picking can you play that with the pic and still make it ring like that the way Fogarty did?
    I was just curious.

    Still wrong, but I like how you at least attempted to address those low E notes.
    I think John Fogerty and I may be the only ones who do it like the record.
