The First Cut Is the Deepest was recorded by Sheryl Crow on her 2003 album The Very Best of Sheryl Crow. In this iVideosongs title, instructor Danny Grady shows you how to play the acoustic and electric guitar parts from one of Sheryl Crow's biggest hits. Based on relatively simple chords, this arrangement achieves its full sound by adding embellishments to familiar chords in both guitar parts. The arpeggiated chords on the acoustic and tasteful lead lines on the electric guitar serve as a great primer for intermediate-level guitarists on tasteful playing. The use of slides, bends, hammer-ons, pull-offs, and double stops make this song a fun challenge. This medium-tempo song is played on capoed acoustic and electric steel string guitars.
