You can play Man is an Island by Kate and Anna McGarrigle using simple chords like G, C, D, and Em, which match the gentle folk style of the song. Start with G for the verses, switch to C and D for the chorus, and use Em for the softer, reflective parts. Listen to Emmy Lou Harris’ version on Light of the Stable to match the rhythm and timing, then try strumming along slowly until it feels natural. This approach works well for beginners and keeps the song sounding close to the original.
