Stuck in the Middle with You Chords & Guitar Lesson

Welcome to my Stuck in the Middle With Your chords and guitar lessons by Stealers Wheel. I used to love teaching this song in person because everyone loved the percussive rhythm pattern that went along with it.

STUCK IN THE MIDDLE WITH YOU CHORDS:

While the chords are easy enough, it’s really the strumming pattern that makes this song come alive. In this song we will be accenting the up strums which can sometimes be quite awkward for beginners. If you are a beginner, just play the easier strumming pattern. It won’t sound like the song, but it will work.
