[sherrillwallace]

Oh. I see its a Cole Clark. A fine guitar.

[sherrillwallace]

Great job! Love the guitar too. A Maton? I want a Maton the sound is awsome. ***** Peace, Sherrill

[osouthgateguitar]

@sherrillwallace Thanks Sherrill. I hope you get your Maton one day. All the best. Oliver.

[MrMaRcElCaNfLy]

i bet if he would be 16 oder 17 and would look pretty ,he would have no dislikes.

and everybody would say: love you !

[osouthgateguitar]

@MrMaRcElCaNfLy I am taking that as a compliment. Thanks man! If I took it the other way it would mean you think I'm old and ugly. lol.

[AsharakWizeGrynch]

Cool voice man. This song ain't so hard to play on guitar, but it's god damn hard to sing. And you nailed it.

I was thinkin' of putting my cover on youtube as well, you actualy kinda made me do it. Will do it these days. Thanks (:

[osouthgateguitar]

@AsharakWizeGrynch Thanks mate. I'll look out for your version. Let me know when it's up.

[MrCrab91]

[danial360]

Great cover! Not to mention a great sounding guitar! What guitar are you using?

[osouthgateguitar]

@danial360 Thanks. It's a Cole Clark Fat Lady IIAC. The same sort that Jack Johnson uses. They are lovely. try the website coleclarkguitars

[villads2000]

great cover man! im trying to learn it this way, but i cant see how you are playing the two last chords in the chorus.. could you, ore someone please tell me how those are played? :)

/Villads

[osouthgateguitar]

@villads2000 Thanks. The chords are F G C Am. The C chord is a bar chord on the third fret but I bar it with my pinky. The Am chord is a normal open Am chord. I don't play all the strings with each strum so I don't need to form the chords properly. Hope that helps.

[dsmloki]

Great cover.

[sgentlemanjack112]

classic southern/ mississippi accent

[osouthgateguitar]

@sgentlemanjack112 lol. it's more of an Essex UK accent.

[richarldluva124]

[osouthgateguitar]

It's pretty easy.

Bar chords are F G C Am for verse with a C and Csus4 in between each verse.

Reverend Green Middle bit is E, F7 F/F# then G

Good luck!

[musicluv137]

[osouthgateguitar]

Just kind of chug along on the lower 3 strings with a bit of muting.

[musicluv137]

[osouthgateguitar]

Thanks for stopping by. Cool name!

[MrBlackBalloon]

Cool guitar!

[guitar198225]

how is the C and Csus4 played please

[osouthgateguitar]

On the "ghost of Elvis" and "cat fish on the table" part I just play a regular open C chord and add the pinky finger on the 4th string 3rd fret. Watch closely and you'll see I just lift the pinky off and on.

[guitar198225]

ok thanks for your help

[guitar198225]

absolutly great mate. I work with a singer and he said that i would struggle to play this on guitar because its written on piano. Thanks to you I cant wait to prove him wrong. thanks for uploading this you have helped me a lot
