Adele Someone Like You Guitar Lesson by Siggi Mertens

[maximausii]

Woow. Perfect! Thanks !!!

[princeville01]

excellent teacher!!!!!!!!!

[jazzanovatrio]

Very nice arrangement. I am a guitarplayer for many female singers and now one of them asked me if i want to play this song. See you tube Dana & pier bish

Thanks!

[MilkTeaCoffeeWater]

you are a great teacher,thank you!:-)

[ravengirl1997]

is there another chord you can play that can replace the barre chord?

[luiskof1212]

the third chrod of the introduction it is?

[butterflyilih]

You're the greatest! Although I must confess I cheated on the 2nd chord. You see, my pinky is shorter than the usual so what I did was I put my 1rst finger on the 1rst thread of the G string, my middle finger on the 2nd thread of the D string, and my ring fingr on the 2nd thread of the B string. That way I can do the base on the D string. Doesn't sound as nice as the "real" thing, but I get a similar sound without losing my mind (or my pinky XD).

[janedoesquared96]

thank you for this tutorial. this was JUST what I was looking for(:

[TheUnicornslayer]

Great lesson. Dude I learned this in les than 2 minutes

[rallemagne]

[sunny94u]

[NachNachHeavensDoor]

[AddictedDinosaur]

[rgm4ever3128]

I love your guitar!....

[francescaarchie0226]

Hey, is there an alternative chord to replace the 2nd chord? that's killer. can't reach the string =)

[fennydude]

@francescaarchie0226 iv been seeing people use Em but i dont think it would sound right with this progression.

[BlubbGoesRIP]

@francescaarchie0226

indexfinger 4th thread deep e-string

middlefinger 5th thread b-string

ringfinger 6th tread d-string

pinkie 5th tread g-string

same chord!!

[AddictedDinosaur]

@BlubbGoesRIP Its fret no thread. :o

[BlubbGoesRIP]

@AddictedDinosaur

thank you for correcting me (no sarcasm!) my english is awfully bad and i'm it's good that somebody tells me the mistakes i make. :)

[ChakityChakChak]

is there an easier way to play the second chord? the g# one?

[paulieeee1976]

lovely thanks will have a bash tomo! x

[philip4695]

Haha he sed g-string :P

[marlenahixson]

great teacher!!!!

[jeremiah3754]

I don't suppose you are willing to email the finished paper with the chords?

[sweetmunster]

Thanks siggi such a brillaint help. God bless ♥

[vingqie97]

Second chord is too hard for me :/

[greeen2011]

Okay thank you very much your a good teacher my girl friend love this some so i had to learn it

[greeen2011]

U dont show how u pick it in every chord only on some

[curtknows101]

your a great Teacher!!!!! but i gta cheat because i work construction with my hands and theres no way i can ever reach that second chord lol, In almost everysong theres at least one finger limit chord i cant reach, so i gta stick to the two and three reach frets

[vestro1]

Right on as usual

S&J

[rexiitis]

he is good

[Rhinosince59]

Capo 2nd fret and play in G. Play a full G with ring finger on 2nd string 3rd fret.

Play the main bass once only on each change. Its so easy and sounds just like the piano. After G play F sharp Bass plus 2nd finger on 2nd fret 3rd string then Em then C then go around again, perfect, trust me.

[MeganGuard1]

Second chord is driving me insane -_-

[sunny94u]

@MeganGuard1 Yes its IMPOSSIBRU :( we need an alternate option for that -_-

[dausonhoang84]

@sunny94u : may move to 4th fret, index finger holds down all strings, other fingers form Am position

[knubbetube]

@MeganGuard1 ye he puts the fingers from the left hand on the 2nd and 3rd string but doesnt play them, I DONT GET IT WTF

[knubbetube]

@knubbetube ah sry, i ment the 3rd part!

[kyungsu01]

@MeganGuard1 Its not a chord its a tab

[ziadtheking]

for a old man. Your Allllllright

[laurajamesification]

Nice and clear Siggi thank you.

Greetings from Leicester, England.

[altoshakesshi]

siggi you rock!

[bayi159357]

You're a good teacher, I can actually learn from you, because I'm a total noob and you explain it all well. I love your accent, and the way your guitar sounds is enchanting. <3

Although, I have a question, could you please explain to me the D major chord that was the fourth one you used? I did look it up on Google, but it looked completely different to how you did it? I'm sorry if it's a silly question, but you're by far the best teacher, and I want to learn this song really badly. :)

[siggi5153]

@bayi159357 The fourth one is a normal D major chord, nothing special about it!

[110rusi]

@siggi5153 you'r killing me with the "yea hy fox" of you'r... it funey lol...

[guitarheroprince123]

@bayi159357

I think u are a beginer

[TheBlues088]

@bayi159357 D major chord is made by tones D - F# - A -D. Now find all tones on the guitar and play them together. Very easy.

[mrhelal]

@bayi159357 he just didnt put his fingers on the strings he's not playing ;)

i had ur Q, then i figured it out..

I also agree with u.. he's the best teacher i've seen so far! i learned half the song within just an hour :0 he's a good teacher ^_^

best of luck~..

[Donnee]

Wicked man

[matthias00000]

you so beautiful, please smack your face with the guitar

[jecky36]

the best guitar lesson i've ever seen !!!! I wil be very very happy if you make more adele songs lessons

greeting from Berlin-Germany

[adshedsyd]

siggi cleaver that you can switch form classical to steel string. Whot is your view about using a 12 string guitar and taking out every second string to get six string guitar with a compromise fret borad between 6 and 12 string?

[siggi5153]

@adshedsyd I heard people doing that but never had any experience myself with it.

[Cushniee]

could you please learn the scene where christopher walken tells the young boy about the watch from pulp fiction please?

[AStaRLuV]

Yaaaaay thank Mr

[AllegraEpstein]

Can you post the chords for this?

[aFiRAbdel]

Great :)

[QuantumSeagull33]

great stuff... for the second chord can you not play A flat on the G string?

[SpookeyPictures]

thank you !

[2learneasy]

nice chord variations

[Gwensky98]

Thank youu

[TheShowstoperrules]

is it the same for electric?

I just started playing and i wanna be this song so bad.

[Rhys635]

@TheShowstoperrules it wont make a difference, what guitar have you got?

[TheShowstoperrules]

@Rhys635 Epiphone black... :S.... honestly i dont even kno if thats the name of it... thats how new i am at this.... so hard tryna learn guitar on ur own lol

[SophieElisellwood]

i don't get the bridge :(

[eagle13sc]

what key is this song in?

[booboo748]

awhh this is cute i love thisss, i learned thank you! (:

[2332JD]

is there an easier way to play the C#m G# bass chord?

[2learneasy]

@2332JD move an A minor shape to the fourth fret adding the bass 4th fret 6th string, miles easier

[2332JD]

fuck this



[leanneproco]

[maniac1inheels]

[ChrizMusicCovers]

[cheesepuffs2001]

[HeyShannin]

I have no guitar skill at all but now I can play this. Thank-you!

[stefaniie6]

is there any other chord or way of playing the second chord? i cant do it, my hands are too small lol

[levo69]

@stefaniie6 that one is difficult lol :/

[roccckkerrr]

when you start talking whilst still playing i could have sworn you were about to sing

[KSaebinMusic]

@roccckkerrr Omg I thought he was going to start singing too!

[kezzinatorz]

the way i finger it....LOL

[paul21turbo]

@kezzinatorz

damn you bet me to it bro, i pissing myself m8

[bayi159357]

@kezzinatorz He also said G-string... God, I'm so immature.

[Maximum179]

What strings did you play for the E chords?

[sammydayvis]

wonderful Mr. Siggi :)

waiting for Chasing Pavements.... pretty please!!

[Rayan83]

Arrrrgh always struggle to get a clear F#m!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Sunambra]

@Rayan83 If you're having probs with F#m get the action checked out by a guitar tech the string height at your first fret should be like a capoed guitar and no more than 2.5 - 3 mm at the 12th fret 6th string low E for an acoustic.

[aliasdon459]

mate you are awesome! really easy to ollow and you explain it well. more please! subscribed.

[Theitisme400]

This is really good and accurate, but I found out i could also have some fun with a simple A-E-D (with a weird #chord that i can't identify in the middle) :o)

Brilliant tutorial though bud. Subscribed with pleasure. ☮

[chenelle97]

@Theitisme400 do you mean used a, e , d chord instead of the a, weird chord, and fminor. :] Thanks cos the only chord i can do from the one he says his a :]

[sidbarret123]

ty



[hike21]

The second chord shouldn't it just be a c#- shape instead of the more difficult shape you mentioned? Great one anyway. Thanks

[siggi5153]

@hike21 The second chord can be played as you describe it, but I wanted to transcribe the original keyboard figure.

[nakatoy]

@hike21 how do you do a c#-? doesnt sound right the one I found on the web..
