Move or rock your knees up and down while nodding your head to accomplish the typical stage movements of John Lennon. The head bobbing will help you jam and mimic the movements of the guitar-playing.

Use the pick to play the notes up and down. Songs such as "Can't Buy Me Love," "I've Just Seen A Face" and "Help!" have mad, intense strumming sequences that require quick, swift movements. The swift movements need to feel almost angry and frustrated.
3
Place your thumb on the first string or "low E." Guitarists usually use their index finger to hold this string, but holding the "low E" with your thumb allows you to hold the note more securely, and therefore, produce a funkier, Lennon-like beat. When you have to go up and down the neck of the guitar, slide your hand and reposition your thumb on the "low E" cord.

Hold the cord, and then strum the notes that you want to play. Lennon favored the bottom three strings or the strings that are closest to the ground: high "E," "B" and "G." Hold these three strings with your fingers while holding the "low E" with your thumb.
5
Strum the notes to a slow song as perfectly as you can. On slow songs, you do not have to use the "low E," but the high "E," "B" and "G" are still favored. This means that you must stress every note instead of mashing the notes together. Not using the thumb will make for a softer melody. In songs such as "Imagine," "Woman" and "The Luck of the Irish," the slow movements of the strings make for a lower melody and a romantic song
