This is a great song and you play it good. I was wondering if could help me out though and maybe show me what the strumming pattern is and the two chords you use to play the song. Please and thank you.
Hey dude, I really like the extra riffs in your cover....do you have tabs for that, I can't quite pick it up while watching it. I could really get into playing this.
Good guitar playing keep it up, now stop. Go listen to him sing and match you voice exactly after you listen and record, when they match you will have the voice. You are not hearing so you seem tone deaf. Listening is the key. Good luck.
Thanks! My goal is not to mimic the original. I find that not listening to the original helps the cover develop a life of its own. I gave this song a little more punch than the original.
OK, I'm an idiot, I see what you're taling about. All I ask now, what are the other 2 chords you hold in the beginning (the smaller slides), and how far do you slide...when you slide?
Dude, I love everything about this page. The song is great, upbeat, and your voice matches it. And your responses to all the assholes out there is nonchalant and positive. Both of those are pretty inspiring. PLEASE send me the tabs, you have no idea how badly I want to sit around and play this for days.
Thanks for the compliment!! I posted the basic chords in the video description. Have fun with it and I hope to see your version! Thanks for stoppin' by.
The numbers tell you what frets to put your fingers on. "0" is an open string and so on. Lay your guitar down on your lap and match it to the rows. The first row is an open low "E" , 5th fret on the second string, 4th fret on the 3rd string, etc. The second chord starts with 3rd fret on the low E string. I'll send you something better if this doesn't work:)
Really sorry if this is causing any trouble for you, I understand tab, but the way you play it in the song seems much more in-depth than the description (and I don't see the pattern in the description). I'm really sorry. Is there any way you could post a link to the full table of your version or something? Like a PDF? Or chord names and the slides involved with the strumming pattern? If you can tell, I really want to play this song.
Do us all a favor and resign yourself to the shadows where you belong. More people need to realize they aren't vocalists and quit kidding themselves. Know your place and roll with it. Why everybody wants to sing is beyond me.
Thanks! I used to think I had some talent until you came along to remind me otherwise. I post material so that people can experience my work and offer opinions. Thanks for the feedback and sorry you had a bad day. Playing and singing are my way of "rolling with it".

Keep it up, remember, before you go off on your own, you have to match each sound which you have to do. Then you can do that. So you don't go flat.

I like their verson too but this one is more upbeat and funky. I'm also not sure that version would translate well to a solo acoustic performance.
