Hello friends,

and welcome to another By Request Song Tutorial. In today's lesson, I'll explain common folk style guitar techniques with a complete tutorial on Simon and Garfunkels 1969 classic "The Boxer." We'll begin this lesson with a full demonstration, before I break down the intro section, and the chord progressions and finger picking patterns for the verse and chorus sections. My official Chords and tabs for The Boxer by Simon and Garfunkel are available at Patreon.com/swiftlessons. Let's get started!

A small correction. This song was released in 1969. Simon & Garfunkel broke up in 1970.
