The Shadow Of Your Smile

The theme song from “The Sandpiper” is The Shadow Of Your Smile, a great song written back in 1965 by Johnny Mandel and Paul Webster. It can be played as a Rumba, or other Latin rhythm, or as a slow song. In this lesson we present a couple ways to easily play Latin rhythms. This guitar lesson demonstrates The Shadow Of Your Smile in the key of “G”, and the only chords you will need are: B7, F#m7, Em, A7, Am7, D9, G, Cmaj7, C#m7, F#7, Bm7, and Cm7. We have condensed the chord structure to make the song easier to learn and to play, but you will see that The Shadow Of Your Smile will sound rich and full as we teach it in this guitar lesson. The song is easy to learn and fun to play.
