About this song

"Wonderwall" by Oasis features a simple chord progression with a catchy melody, played on a Martin acoustic guitar. Noel Gallagher wrote the song in just 10 minutes, inspired by the Beatles' "Don't Look Back in Anger." The guitar solo in the song was actually played by Paul Arthurs, known as Bonehead, using a slide. The song's title was taken from the George Harrison album "Wonderwall Music."
