Mrs Robinson guitar lesson tutorial (Simon & Garfunkel) how to play

Here's how to play the classic acoustic song Mrs Robinson by Simon & Garfunkel.

This songs has simple chords, but the fast strumming and lack of short repetitive chord progressions can make this deceptively tricky for beginners to learn.

We will also cover how to play the recognisable riff and acoustic lead parts, which are at an intermediate playing standard. It is also worth pointing out that the original recording has many layered guitar parts, created by doing multiple overdubs in the studio.

I am in love with your collection of guitars at the back. I have nothing else to say apart from keep on with these kinds of songs, I am a 13 year old girl and I am the only one in my class who knows who Simon and Garfunkel are! Like honestly we NEED you to keep these songs alive.

I can't believe I finally learned Mrs. Robinson...I took a lot of lessons in nyc, climbing 4 flights to my teacher's flat (while pregnant) carrying my new Ibanez - and never got it quite right 😊
Thank you! ❤

I started with you, then took a turn with many other guitar channels on YouTube, but in the end I came back, because you really are the best teacher on the site.

[FoxRogers]

This is a truly great tutorial with so much useful information but doesn't feel overwhelming. Would love to hear you sing the whole thing, though you have a great voice!

Hey Andy, first of all, I've gotta just say thank you - you've single handedly made me so much more productive during this quarantine, having a goal of learning to play guitar has forced me to be motivated in everything I do! I also have a small request, I'd love to see how you'd play / teach "This City" by Sam Fischer - the acoustic version he released this year is one of my favourite songs of the year, would love to be able to play it!

Big thanks Andy !

Because of Andy, I survived the lockdown after battling with depression. I picked up ukulele and now I am not sure to buy an acoustic or electric. I know many said electric is easier but acoustic seems more popular still.
