  • Hey man, that's awesome! Good work. Fav track by far from Garden State. What tuning did you use?

  • Hey thanks!  It's an open C tuning.

    CGEGCE

    Then you move up and down the third string, and the chords are barred except for the minor one which is shaped like an Aminor on the bottom three strings. I hope this helps!

  • Excellent, five stars and you deserve it.

  • Wow, very, very good.

  • excellent cover of an awesome song. I'm very much a beginning guitarist and i played this song for my girlfriend. It was no where near as good your version, but it is still one of my favorite songs to sing and play.

  • Wunderschön!

    Saitenblick ;-)

    c.u. ... v.m.

  • kudos man!

  • Loved it!:)

    God bless!:):*

    Pri.

  • beautiful job man... anyway you could post the chords/tabs??? i wanna learn this song for my girl...

  • Thanks a lot :) I learned it by ear -- but it's an open-C tuning and most of it is just sliding around on the 3rd string from the lowest. The other chords are just barred since it's open to the chord -- good luck! Post a video of if you learn it :)

  • actually while open C does work...its actually tuned a little more out there. strings 6-3 are tuned down one full step (EADG down one) then you tune 2(B) up to C and put 1(E) in tune with the 2(C). strings 1 and 2 are in tune to C in diff octaves and you just slide the lead riffs into the normal cords....if you want the link to my tab for this version let me know....the harmonics and octaves come out a lot cleaner

  • hey do you think you could send me the tab with the tuning please. Thanks

  • Hey jblues, I'm interested in seeing your tab for this song - could you send me the link? It's a beggar trying to find accurate tabs for this one.

    Thanks,

    Chuck

  • nice

  • One of the greatest songs ever written. Who woulda thought the dude who wrote Down Under could write such amazing songs...

  • solid song choice...what tuning are you using?

  • I love the emotionality you put into every song you sing and play.:) Melle

  • love it. well done

  • Very impressed with this, from a huge Colin Hay fan...

  • So very, very impressive. What a voice. Bravo!

  • Like a book on tape novella read by Colin Blunstone. Your music is outstanding, Benjamin.

  • Beautifully done, Benjamin :)

  • Thanks man :)

  • wow.. this cover is truly wonderfull.

  • Good job Ben. I'm a big fan of Colins music, and I loved this song long before the Garden State Soundtrack. It's so beautiful, and can you imagine if it was played on adult music stations. I think it'd be huge. Good music lasts, and this song will always be contemporary. Later man, Gary

  • Hi Benjamin! I never heard this song before, but I enjoyed a lot! You're always great! And your voice is just amazing.. so relaxing! ;)

    Thanks for upload!!

    Beijos!!

  • Yay - thank you for commenting - I'm glad you liked it.
