Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd (1975) is a beautiful acoustic song with a memorable fingerpicking intro and a simple but emotional chord progression.
The verse uses a down-down-up-up-down-up pattern. Keep your arm moving in a constant 8th note motion.
This song is about absence and longing. Don't rush, let the notes breathe, and use slight dynamic variation to tell the story.
