More about this title

About the Artist: Sheryl Crow

Sheryl Crow burst onto the pop-rock scene in 1993 with her debut album and has remained a major force in songwriting and performance for three decades. Her catalog spans rock, country, and pop, and her influence on contemporary music education extends to her ability to craft memorable melodies with substantive lyrical content. Crow's guitar work and vocal phrasing have made her songs enduring classroom and ensemble favorites.

Why we love this

This track gives guitarists a chance to play a genuine hit from mainstream radio while developing practical pop-rock rhythm techniques. The song's infectious groove and straightforward structure make it accessible without sacrificing musicality, and students immediately connect to material they already know.

What to expect

Upbeat and optimistic, with the kind of driving rhythm that makes you want to move. The song radiates confidence and forward motion, grounded in a groove that feels both contemporary and timeless.

Who it's for

Guitar students of early-intermediate level and above will find this tab approachable and musically satisfying. It works equally well for private studio guitarists preparing repertoire or ensemble guitarists looking for pop-rock material that sits between pure beginner material and challenging arrangements.

How to get the most out of it

  • Pay attention to the rhythmic pocket on the main riff; locking in with a click track at various tempos will build the precision needed to make this track shine.
  • Use dynamics to shape phrases rather than playing everything at a consistent volume; Crow's original recording features dynamic movement that makes the arrangement feel alive.
  • Lean into the swing or shuffle feel if one is indicated in the tab; this groove-based approach is common in pop-rock and transfers well to other contemporary material.

How to use it

Feature this in a pop-rock or contemporary music set alongside other 1990s hits to create a thematic program that resonates with students and audiences alike. It also works well as a solo recital piece or as part of a guitar ensemble concert showcasing different arrangements of well-known songs.

Skills your students will build

  • Reading guitar TAB and translating it to the fretboard
  • Playing consistent rhythmic grooves with dynamic control
  • Understanding song form and structure in pop-rock arrangements
  • Developing style-appropriate articulation and tone
