Companion PDF for the Guitar Lesson: How to Play I Can See Clearly Now on Acoustic Guitar: Chords and Strumming Pattern

3 pages. Map the chords. Nail the rhythm. Tackle the bridge.

Everything you need to play I Can See Clearly Now by Johnny Nash — from the four open chords that carry most of the song to the specific strumming rhythm that gives it that bouncy, signature feel. The refrain and the bridge are both covered, with two options for the trickier chord moments so you can play at the level that suits you right now.

Inside You’ll Find:

• Verse chord diagrams (D, G, A, C) — the four open chords that carry the heart of the song
• Verse strumming pattern — the root-note picking and raking rhythm that gives this song its character
• The refrain — chord sequence and strumming feel for “bright, bright, sunshiny day”
• The bridge — F and C chords with an easier F option, plus the C# minor section with a 3-string alternative if full bar chords aren’t there yet

Perfect For Guitarists Who Want To:

• Play I Can See Clearly Now from start to finish
• Build a strumming pattern with real personality — not just basic downstrokes
• Take on a song with a bridge and feel genuinely prepared for every section
• Have one arrangement that works whether you’re a Beginner or an Improver

Whether you’re working through the verse first and leaving the bridge for later, or going straight for the full song, this PDF keeps everything you need in one place. Use it alongside the video or on its own — print it out and prop it up while you play.
