Knowing how to play “Happy Birthday” on the guitar always comes in handy! Try out this familiar tune using
the tab below.

As you can see, “Happy Birthday” is a melody that can be played on just one string and is composed of four short phrases. The tricky
part of this guitar tab is deciding on the right fingering. We recommend starting with your index finger on the second fret, your pinkie
on the fifth fret, and your ring finger on the fourth fret. You can play the first phrase with your left hand in this position.

To play the note on the seventh fret in the second phrase, you will need to slide your pinkie up to reach. You can then play the fifth
fret with your middle finger.

In the third phrase, you will have to slide your pinkie up again to reach the ninth fret, and then slide back down to play the fourth fret
with your ring finger and the second fret with your index finger.For the final phrase, use your pinkie to play the tenth fret and your
ring finger to play the ninth fret. Then, slide your hand down to play the fifth fret with your index finger and the seventh fret with your
ring finger.Following this guide to the fingering of this piece enables you to hit all the notes while making minimal movements with
your hand up and down the neck of the guitar.
