How to Practice I'm Yours

Jason Mraz's 'I'm Yours' was the longest-charting Billboard single of the 2000s for a reason — it's playable, singable, fun, and works in any setting. The reggae-influenced groove and the bright major-key changes make it a universal acoustic favorite.

Practice Tips

    The chord changes are the simplest pop progression. The rhythm is the challenge.

  2. 2

    The off-beat strum gives it the reggae feel. Practice with a metronome.

    The vocal is conversational and slightly playful. Don't oversing it.
