[p796]

hey smarty pants, you all were born with the knowledge of chords coded in your genome, weren't you :)

[rustojames]

HEY I MADE THAT UP YOU STOLE MY LICK

[luizhenriquestan]

Cut this goddamn thumbnail.

[Steamthrower]

thanks for teaching me an A chord.

[BryceShuster]

if you dont know how to play an Amaj then you shouldnt be playing james taylor

[johndawson420]

@BryceShuster ive known it a long time. but in my opinion i started out learning hendrix and clapton. If you want to be the best you can you have to grind through the hardest of the hardest and youll make greater achievement then learning to play easy bullshit.

[jclev99]

doesn't even sound close to james taylor

[peppy6078]

how not? its basicly straight from fire and rain

[Drewlust]

Hey Peter, check out the song I wrote called, "I Am Not James Taylor"

Thanks for the great guitar tips!

If you don't already know the A major chord, you shouldn't be trying to play James Taylor.

[teleman233]

well now it's not really James Taylor they are trying to play-just a little riff that James uses. If you're implying that explaining the A major chord is too rudimentary for this lesson then understand someone would complain if it wasn't. If you are simply warning beginners not to try to play James Taylor you would be more times than not be right.
