Lesson notes

Truly Madly Deeply is a romantic ballad by Australian pop band Savage Garden, taken from their self-titled debut album, which became an international big hit in 1997.

The song is in the key of C and uses only four chords. We take a look at a few different ways of fretting those and we break down a strumming pattern in double time as a starting point.

Since the drums are very prominent throughout the arrangement, we also take a look at how to somewhat copy the same feel by adding a bit of percussion.
