Hi George here. Welcome to this video where I show you how to play Bob Dylan's Don't Think Twice It's All Right on guitar and harmonica.
So we're going to start off and we'll go through the guitar chords, then we'll go through a strumming pattern and then we'll talk through the harmonica part and finally we'll put it all together and play through the whole thing.
Ok, so let's go through the chords in the order of the progression.
It starts off in G, it goes to D and them Em. Then it goes to C and to D, then to D7. Go back to G, to D, to Em. Now this time it goes to A7, then D and D7. Then G, go to G7, go to C, and to A7. Then to G. Then we go to B7 which can play barred or in the open pattern. So it's G, to B7, to Em to C. Then it goes G, D, G, then D7.
Ok, so that's all the chords and that's the pattern. It's a verse and chorus combination sort of thing. So the only tricky chord might be the B7 playing the bar or the open chord.
Ok, let's go through this and work on the strumming pattern. We start in G which will be on the downbeats. We'll count this out using eighth notes.
Let me play my pattern here and then we'll count through it. The G is on the downbeat on 1 and 3, same with D. With Em, the pattern will be down up down strumming. It's going to be down on the 1, up on the and of 2 and then down on 4. Let's take that slowly.
Then we're going to go to C which follows a similar strumming pattern to Em but it starts on 3 rather than 1. So it's down on 1, down on 3, up on and of 4, then down on 2. Then D and D7.
Then we're going to go to G, D, Em. Then we're going to go to A7 which keeps the same strumming pattern that we used on C before. Then we go to D and then D7.
Then G, then G7 which follows the same strumming pattern as the Em. To C and then A7 which again follows that same pattern 1, and of 2, 4. G to B7 to Em which again follows that same pattern but we're going to go to a C this time so we hit that C a bit early. We anticipate it by a beat. Then G, D, G, and D7.
Hopefully, you can work through that and put it all together. That's how I like to play the rhythm. It always works to just keep with the downbeats; that will be fine.
Maybe to just work out that pattern a little bit, you can practice by strumming eighth notes and then you can kind of feel where those ands and the downbeats are. Anyways, that's an exercise that you can play with. Make sure your wrist is nice and loose so you can strum those eighth notes, 1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and.
So the song is in the key of G major and I am using a G harmonica then. I use a Hohner Special 20 which is a G diatonic harmonica. Get the harp and holder at George's Harp Shop: http://www.georgegoodman.com/georgesharpshop
When I'm playing the song, I like to put a harmonica lick over the transitions, in between each verse/chorus section. Just the little turnaround, I'll put a harmonica part on that. I also play a harmonica solo which is based very closely on the melody and I'll put that after the second verse/chorus combination.
Let's see if we can't put this all together. We'll start off with an intro with harmonica, then we'll work through 2 verse/choruses and put in the harmonica solo, then do the final 2 verse/choruses and just finish it up.
All right. Don't Think Twice It's All Right - Bob Dylan - guitar and harmonica. I hope you can use that to put the song together. Awesome song. I hope you enjoyed the video. If you did, please leave a comment. I love to hear your comments. Have a great day. Right on. Peace. Cheers.

No offence man great job

But the guitar chords are wrong...

It is played on 4th fret capo using C, G, Am, C/G, and D7.

You should get the Bob Dylan little black book.

Great job though!
