How to play the Peggy Sue melody on guitar

The melody of Peggy Sue by Buddy Holly runs 160 notes across 49 bars, 2:10 long in G at 192 beats per minute. The tab sits almost entirely in the first two frets, one note at a time — no chords to barre and no strumming pattern to keep up with. A piano backing track plays the chords and bass underneath, so the line you are learning sounds like the record even at half speed.

Prefer to strum and sing it instead? Peggy Sue chords and lyrics.
