[yourguitarsage]

@amazingQT You are too sweet! Thank you for the kindness.

[jlp0719]

How would you play without a capo

[75SilentWarrior]

@jlp0719 The same as you would play a normal open chord, it will just be lower than the original.

[jlp0719]

[GRIZZDIPN101]

Nice brake down good vid

[Rmorse711]

Hey man .... love the lessons. I really appreciate this stuff. Hope you can stop in and check my songs out:) I am just trying to make a name for myself. I am a singer songwriter from Lagrange KY. Thanks man!

[PearlsAndGemz]

hey, do you think you could do the song lost by coldplay, and give the strumming patterns as well, it would be very appraicated

[ImmaKillUrAss]

i do not have that black thing no $ :'(

[petermoto82]

Hey ppl I have wanted a guitar for a while and yes i have bought my self one really really chuffed but the question i ask is how the hell i tune it/play it lol. I have found out you can not play with nails:( so mine are gone.I have been on the web to find no real lessons i mean like strum ? is this were you take the pick and run over the cords with our using your left hand? please help me and taylor i will be back when i have some knowledge you play lovelly...........

[MizzBabiiJ]

i want to buy a guitar and i have no idea how to play guitar at all. does anyone know if this is this a easy song to learn for a newbie?

[whitelion97]

@MizzBabiiJ It's not that easy for beginners. The F chord is hard for beginners. If you want to learn a taylor swift song, i suggest starting out with Our Song or Fearless. :)

[Sellain96]

[hedfonezcrossbonez]

@yourguitarsage agreed. silly exhibitionistic cat.

[apples24680]

[MikroBadass]

@apples24680 mooning means to show your butt at people 2:53 - 2:55

[LuckyLuLu1125]

ok do u accually NEED a capo to do this sog coz i find it easier just to not use one

[TheLeharrr]

great job ;-) what kind of guitar do you have? which brand is it?

[cibolagirl14]

I have a question. To anyone who has bought the Ebook...is it a big help? I've had my guitar for over a year and though I know a lot of basics I struggle sometimes. Would the purchase be worth it?

[officialkiara310]

the only thing i didnt ike was that you didnt say how to put ur fingers for the chorders...lol...other then that...great job ^.^

[MsPickledcucumber]

I'm so going to get myself a nice acoustic guitar and start playing

[papabenj]

[pinoysuperray18]

Seriously? Another C-G-A(m)-F song? Hey Soul Sister is C-G-A-F (4th Capo). Oy.. today's songs are so easy to play.

[zizo12qb]

GREAT teacher and guitarist !!!!

[singsangman]

everybody loves the love story xD

[BUMMER766]

what are the chords for the key change...? i think most people would want to play the song as a whole without moving the capo in the middle? :D

[ku5243]

hey dude.ur too good ...thnxx

[JustCause2Add1ct]

lol, you're like "WOAH" if you pause at 2:54 lol

[JustCause2Add1ct]

lol, you look really scared if you pause at 2:54 :P

[mainezie19]

youre my favorite guitar teacher =)) ive learned many taylor songs because of you.. keep it up

[garxz97]

uh, hey there.. can you like recommend a super easy song for me 'cause i don't have a capo yet and i'm still a beginner in playing the guitar.. please & thanks.. :)

[1957fenderstrat]

WHY DO A LESSON WITH A CAPO? I never use one and will never buy one. UGH. Good job though.

[luciansteph]

Hey! I love your videos. I just want to say thank you and that you do a GREAT JOB in explaining especially the strumming! I know you must get asked to do a million song s but i would like to play LIKE A STAR by Connine Bailey Rae for my fiance as a surprise at our wedding. If you do a video on it that would be great! the wedding is in 2 months so i dont give you much time! if you do it thank you a MILLION! if not you're still great!

[jrickel69]

I notice he lifts the index finger on his G chord. What is that about?

[audreydeco]

i like this.... <3<3<3..

i want learn this...

[Baconpiece]

how does he play the Fm the other way, my finger 1st isnt long enough :S i need a sub.

[MassachusettsYi]

sorry but how do you look up videos like if you look up this is me cover my video is not there

[Tysilee]

D:< Bloody F chord is throwing me off!!!!

[janette339]

you remind me of The Edge :D great vid!

[kacnbac]

what the heck is the mettle bar on the guitar

[paradiselostinme]

@kacnbac It is called a capo. If you don't have one, you can make one. Search: how to make a capo on Youtube. A girl will make it with rubber bands and a pencil.

[ky860224]

[Extremedreams348]

[MichaelCastian]

[CojRacer]

[MsCheesexx]

[mslajacko10]

[prettygal5]

[Reezie90]

You Should do a tutorial for Hey Stephen... Pretty please with a Cherry on top? :)

[tangunako]

Indeed the best teacher

[princesspop2K8]

how does he do the F chord? whats the tab?

[jagmeh3]

@princesspop2K8 the barr F sounds better imo

[stellaandkarina]

Thank you sir. (: Great video as always. Haha.

[deflepphartme]

taylor swift plays G like G7 in this song-so it would go C G7 Am F for the intro and chorus

[PRassasin]

kids???im older than you >:o

[binm123]

Thank you!! :)

[kunalakaplayboy]

how to make capo by pencil and gum and does that mean the chewing gum do reply

[stamantm1]

Lol you look like the Edge



Nice tutorial keep doing it !

[thatgirlcalledsam]

You play F the same way I do! I have never seen anyone else play it like that, I have to because I'm a beginner and cannot for the life of me do barr chords!

Great video :D

[hanshartendorp]

its a good song and i think maybe someday you can teach me how to play a guitar

[dieFrankiexDD]

i think i wanna marry you :)

[micolsdk]

good but i would recommend you start by playing it through so one gets an idea how it should sound - for the more advanced players that know all chords and know how to strum, then they can learn it much faster than watching the whole video.

[TheAngelTia]

hey what key is it in ? :/ good toutorial btw thanks

[uwelmlvdn]

how do you play die F-chord?

[austrias65]

heey dude. can you please make a tutorial of tonight by fm static?

[z22one]

what is the margilation thingy at the last part. i guess it was about changing keys bout how is it done without moving the capo (using new chords whatsoever)

[paulmarthin20]

[metcalfe87]

This joker looks just like Dane Cook to me

[yIdeas]

[metcalfe87]

Yeah, hes pretty funny. Id bet he cant play guitar though lol

[geniussesme]

@yIdeas yeah ,looks like DANE COOk!

[jason7193]

lol YAY! youve got the exact same capo as me :D lool

[dynamicyankee]

@jason7193

hahaha

[ashbut209]

u can also put cover the 1st three strings in f instad of two which gives better grip

[fpscracker232]

you can make a capo using a pencil and some gums together

[yourguitarsage]

@fpscracker232

Old lady gums...

[fpscracker232]

and a condom too , it really works loOl

[charlieguitars]

@fpscracker232 or you could be clever and just shift all the chords up one step capo free. so C = D G=A Am=Bm etc

[lolly1234561]

i pronounce it...cap-o 2

[ahlynn3]

what if i don't have a capo..amp

[Hypnixio]

you can make a homemade capo, just take a pencil, and rubber band or something stretchy and just bind it from the back of ur guitar to the up,

[brotherstildeath]

what is the fingering for the G note he is using???

[smalltimecharlie]

He explains it in one of his other videos I think, basically a normal G but takes of his first finger and mutes the A string with his middle.

[batterycock]

how do you pronouce capo cos i heard people say "cap-o" and "cape-o"?

[gracekr5]

"cape-oh"

[gocanesandrew]

its cape-oh. don't feel stupid, haha, fair question!

[cOleen019]

Hey Its Good Nice Job :)) I wish You Wil Post A Video My Heart By Paramore :))

[DivineSkullzz]

Ah well as long as he keeps teaching songs I'm fine with any songs ^_^

[Buxoo7]

This is sad... a grown man playing Taylor Swift.

Nice lessons though
