@GeneralTerrorise I could have done a lot of things different, but this is MY interpretation of the song. You could upload your own video of how YOU play the song and then we'll decide how "irish" the guitar needs to be.
If you barre the 12th fret with you index finger and place your little finger on the B string 15th fret and your ring finger on the G string 14th fret and strum the bottom 3 strings only it sounds like the mandolin at the start , play all other chords G,10th fret, D,10th fret and alternate back and forth between these 2 to get the rythm and an A barre chord on the 12th and finally your normal Bm barre chord played on the 14th this sounds very like the Gerard Butler sountrack hope this helps
@lionleobow I usually just play whatever sounds best to me. If it sounds better to you and you are more comfortable with it, go for it. Just have fun with it.
very nice work, great voice and guitar playing, how long have you been playing for?? I've been playing for nearly a year now my guitar playing is average at best, but I cant seem to multi task and sing at the same time tend to mess it up and unable to concentrate on playing, any tips mate....
well done...I am a huge Steve Earl fan and have seen him perform several times and this is a very good cover. If you like Steve Earl songs you might want to look up some Townes Van Zandt songs (a great influence and Friend to Steve Earl). Again, well done.
holy crap...im only learning guitar and i watched this like twice and i figured the chords and the strumming style. you play so clearly and its soo good:L i was in a mega bad mood before i watched this but this song just makes me smile and i love the way you changed the lyrics and just ahhh:L your voice is really nice too:] and i know its not a tutorial but damn, thanks:]
This totally made me smile, especially seeing as my eyes and hair are both brown as well... lol. Can you cover Gimme That Girl by Joe Nichols for me? It's mine and my boyfriend's song and Monday (the 22nd) is our 5 month. :)
You are very talented really like the change you made for your wife. also you are really polite taking time to say thanks to everyone. you should get a deal with a record comnpany man
im just gonna say it. this is by far the best cover of this tune on youtube. (trust me, i watched them all) and its got the least views? ROAR. keep it up man
i love this song and your interpretation of it but i was wondering what the chord and finger placement was for the chord at 40 seconds its in between the D and G chord
How are you playing ? down down up down up ??
