hi. I was wonderin if you could make videos of some more Zevon songs like "my shits fucked up" or "dont let us get sick" or "searchin for a heart" or something like that. maybe "lawyers guns and money." Awsome videos man. Ive learned a few songs I never would have without your explinations. You are an awsome teacher and im sure if you do another Zevon tutorial you will blow that one out the water as well. thanks.
I'd really love to be able to just sing along to easy tunes like this. I've been playing for years but have never been able to combine the two with any success! Any tips would be great, and don't tell me not to eat yellow snow. Great lessons by the way, thanks.
play it until it's so automatic that you can watch tv while playing it, or read the lyrics while playing.. once you can comprehend what your reading, or what your watching while playing, try humming along. once you can hum to it, just throw the lyrics in. I haven't mastered this yet. But those are independence excersizes. when you do something automatically your using beta waves to play, instead of alpha waves, which are required for singing.
great tune...i love claasic rock and this song so reminds me of living in the "old" days...lol sounds great man....love the foot tap and hand tap sounds great just like that!!!
I'm posting again to let you know I broke my high E string while playing this.
I blame the fact that they were factory strings (just got the guitar a month and a half ago). Or maybe my fingernail had something to do with it. They needed to be changed anyway.
ALWAYS rip off the factory strings when you get a new guitar and put on better ones. Usually the factory strings suck, sound like crap, or break and are a waste...
I love your videos. You break everything down nice and easy so beginners can learn everything. I also love how you keep pumping the vids out, learn a new song almost every day.
Hey, just wanted to say your video's are awesome and its really impressive that you're puttin them on youtube for free. I actually told all my friends who play guitar to check out your site, and send it to their friends. Keep it up!
Thanks, SOOOO MUCH. With this help I learned in less than a minute. Im an on an off guitarist, so thats prety good! Subscribed!

wow this must be the best lesson for a beginner.
easy, sounds good and good teaching.
I'm trying to figure out what you do on the 'and' mid beats.
Do you finger pluck all the strings or do you strum ?
Ps did your grandmother knit that hat ?

rdharris55 is right, it's ZEEvon, of course earlier on youtube i heard a kid pronounce German singer Nena's name nee-na instead of Ney-na

*Sigh* I can't for the life of me get that sound from when you are smacking the guitar, what am I supposed to be hitting to achieve that sound?
