Thanks for taking the time to teach, as with alot of Bowie(the great), his songs can be muffed along with some OKness or,,, they can be played properly.
The lesson was killer and I appreciate the time you took to make the vid, I know changes now. Fuckin love Bowie
It's easy to take all these youtube lessons for granted, but I'm very very thankful that talented guys like you take the time to do these. They're extremely useful and of course fun!
I bar the 1st 2 strings with my first finger and the 6th string with my thumb with an E shape on the 2nd fret. Or you could forget about the thumb and just strum the top 5 strings.
play a C major chord and then move your middle and ring finger both down one string, down as in higher strings. it should look almost exactly like a c except without the space on the g string.
so the b string gets a finger on the first fret. G string on the second fret and d string gets the finger on th third fret.
Great lesson....not been playing 6 months , this is a bit beyond me . On the other hand i get pissed off trying to learn 3 chord strummers ! Top job mate
You are AWESOME!! We need more dedicated musicians like you on Youtube to help spread the joy of music to the masses! I really enjoy Bowie and the tabs on the internet are almost always wacked out because people interpret his music in their own way, which is not a bad thing but for people who are trying to use those tabs to learn songs (me) it gets frustrating. You on the other hand teach the songs accurately and clearly, which makes it very helpful to advance my guitar skill. Keep it UP!!!

is that chord you play not a fm7 not dm7? the one on the first two strings first fret 3rd string second fret. i may be wrong :)
mumsmilk 2 years ago
I've always known it as Dm7 as you strum from the 4th string. it would be an F if you only strum the 1st 3 strings

no, I meant I do F as a barre chord and you seem to do it a different way to me (without barring) so just wondered how u do it?

how do u do an F without barring it?
rollinstonery 2 years ago
I'm Afraid there is no easy way of doing F's and B's you just got to practise them. once you get them it opens up the whole fretboard. Keep at it!!

Great lesson :) But could you please post a tab as well, then it's easier to follow!
Wowbagger86 3 years ago
Sorry don't have the time or inclination to do tabs. Just go through the vid slowly and write them our by yourself. I've done the hard work for you.
scoby1knoby 3 years ago
Yup, great video... I guess it will help writing down the chord progression on a sheet with the lyrics :)
