Form of the Song
"Fifteen" is the song by
Taylor Swift from the country-pop singer's second full-length release, Fearless. The song was released as the record's fourth single, written fully by Swift as she stepped into the co-producing spotlight.
The 2008 record follows her 2006 debut with record shattering numbers, taking the number one
Billboard Top 100 spot and grabbing the highest honors at the Grammys. The song is a guitar ballad that speaks to the adolescent, coming-of-age lovers, using a simplistic chord structure to relay Swift's message to a younger crowd.
The chords are all close-knit chords, making transitions easier. Chords like D/F# and G/F# are variations of their base chords, D and G, so practice a slight change what you already know. Watch the video to learn a couple of the strumming patterns throughout the song.

* Intro
