[MichaelD8393]

[GuitarLessonLounge]

If you want to take it to the next level we just released a lesson that teaches a reggae version of this song. It totally kicks butt :P

[Emiliano4567]

Good video but I too was as follows:

String 4: 2-2 String 3: 0 String String 4:2-0 5: 3-0

sounds so similar but good video.

[6662all]

@Emiliano4567 u must have a lot of time on ur hands to figure tht out

[hgdt79]

Mhh... i want to add that you can play it with powerchords ;D and what about the bridge ?

i think you have to make a new tutorial ;DD

(sry 4 my english iam german ;DD )

[PunkH4x0r]

Freeze at 0:07 :D OMG

[TheBipolarBullet]

FINALLY!!!! THERE IS A SONG SO SIMPLE THAT EVEN EXPERTVILLAGE CAN'T SCREW UP!!!!

[julmaster9900]

@TheBipolarBullet hahahaha

[blink182isLegendary]

@TheBipolarBullet they still screwed it up... they forgot the other half of the part...

[TheBipolarBullet]

@blink182isLegendary only thing is that you should figure it out yourself...

[DaDaDaDrums]

@TheBipolarBullet And they still did.. Kind off.. they only gave the beginning, the second part is a little different. (7-7-10-7-5-3-5-3-2)

[linus0111]

@TheBipolarBullet they play all the songs good,what are u talkin aboot?

[linus0111]

lol the forgot the twitch in it , da da dadadaa daaaa daa.... da da dadadaa daaaa daa... da da dadadaa dee deee deeeeeneeee

[BluesmanFraser]

he could have at least gone over the guitar solo as well, just to make it slightly more difficult.

[parts112]

FFS tabbing this must've taken ages! for the love of god people expertvillage videos are for people who don't know which way to hold up a guitar.

[StaticMarch]

Great tutorial! Check out our band's cover of this song! Thanks!

[t0m4t3ns4ft]

thank you :)

[StaticMarch]

Great tutorial! Check out our band's cover of this song!

[brokenhrtedsmiley]

At 0:05 he looks like he's getting head XD

[Blutspender102]

Well it sounds way better on the E-String. Good Video anyways.

[PunkRocker290]

0:45 Is he serious? It's not hard at all

[SpartanM621]

@PunkRocker290

I guess it was too hard for you to figure it out anyway.

[PunkRocker290]

@SpartanM621 Guess You don't get sarcasm either

[hailmasch]

@PunkRocker290 So you respond to sarcasm by asking if it was sarcasm?

[PunkRocker290]

@hailmasch maybe...

[xXLaDi3KiLlEr7Xx]

hahahaha 0:06 thats funny

[A2MONKEMAN]

JOE WILES IS INCREDIBLE!!!

[HeavyPunkRock9]

yeah i do it right but like radionuss99 says it change and I don't understend a thing............why everyone does it on one string ?? it's easier if you use the others too

[mountainboarder101]

lol i think this is even easier than smoke on the water

[radionuss99]

7-7-10-7-5-3-2 and than7-7-10-7-5-3-5-3-2 :D

[jaygb060695]

@radionuss99 Bahaha I just messed around to see what was right and got that

[Justbngoode]

@radionuss99 and on the second time you have to do that order the first one switches to 7-7-10-7-10-12 (let play for extra beat)-10 then witch off

o, and on a side note,

PALM MUTE!

[janwouters]

@radionuss99

nope

listen to the song and you'l hear

[SexyLikeThat1000]

@radionuss99 That part doesn't come until the chorus, played on the power cords, but ya got the right idea

[Dattack12]

@radionuss99

no it isnt

its played this way all through out the song

what your saying is only in the chorus but with barchords from the A string

[DoubleAgent244]

@radionuss99 nice. thanks

[AlxOvhkin]

[nintendogamerlper]

[letsgetcarriedaway]

@nintendogamerlper No, it isn't. This is exactly how you play it.

[nintendogamerlper]

@letsgetcarriedaway i knew that my brother commented on the vid your great im just a newbie

[sherradago]

it's very gooood ! thanks a lot

[Timeline15]

[TheJ2897]

[TheSchokobear]

I play powercords in this song o.O

[rendofarend]

If anyone couldn't figure that out on their own u suck !!

[dfhjnxdf]

after u play that bit he just showed u a few time u can go 7,7,9,7,5,3,5,3,2 (frets)

[sk8r147]

@dzone r u a dumbass that isn't the full song listen to the song and look at tabs for the song

[xXxweirdo1996xXx]

he's got it wright other guitar lessons play it wrong

[nixsic]

am i the only one that noticed this isnt the whole song???

[dzone2003ro]

@nixsic that is the whole song, genius :))

[300stickfigures]

Thanks man you made it fast and easy to work, keep up the good guitar skills man!

[PortugalFreaks]

Wow, that's a hard one...

[TinyShadow2]

i play this on the E string.. is that still correct? i dont like how it sounds on the A string.. it sounds too mellow and bright.

[izak1992]

Thanks man! YOOHOO

[fhyDieMoe]

Wow, its really hard as f**k to play...LOOOL

[ready2slay]

You... are.... a.... MASTER :D !

Just plain simple straight to the point! BANG!

Im gonna go learn it right away :]

[kadoom101]

you play 7-7-10-7-5-3-2

then you play after 7-7-10-7-5-3-5-3-2

[Cory11333]

i playit like that except i go 7-7-10-7 on the 5th and then 10-8-7 on the 6th

[mshkki]

Lol He doesnt use an octave pedal its open A tuning

[dare2wow]

no he does use an octave pedal, one octave lower. but he does use open a tunning too, but that is so that he can use the slide, the song can be played using standard tunning.

[TheTanman2013]

i like playing it- 4th string up, 5-5-8-5-3-1-open-5-5-8-5-3-1~3­~1-0

[Gibson2471]

if u wanna play in all in one spot just play 2-2 on D, open G, 2-D, open D, 3-A, 2-A.

watching some live performances i think this is where he plays it.

[hashfromplan9]

how come u didn mention the quarter-note triplets used as the turn-around @ the end of the riff? thats such an important process to explain to newbs cuz they can't even figure how to lock into polyrhythm

[UgIzZz]

This is simple and awesome. Not really much of a help, but thanks for the tab.

[Rocker26Gio]

thanks man i learned it in 50 seconds!

[IAMSAM1234567890]

@Rocker26Gio I learned after radionuss99 posted that comment which was in 10 sec lol

[thexombiehunter]

the song is not standard tuning

[liligaligis]

This is the lesson? I don't think so :D

[SorrowFly]

this just a part, not the whole song....and i play in b on the 1st string. 5-5-8-5-3-1-0

[heavytharshmetal]

are u being sarcastic my brother learnt that entire song in 5 minutes hes 11

[GutaZedo]

Awesomly easy and great.

Thanks.

[snick246]

i hope he was.

xD

[niamdevil]

erm

practice ur guts on this cause its really hard?

u WERE sarcastic, werent u?

[girouxcor]

@niamdevil no shit lmfao

[oysteinre]

there was 1 mistake, it goes:

7-7-10-7-5-3-2--7-7-10-7-5-3-5­-3-2

[GutaZedo]

Exactly...

[honolululoola]

there was no mistake, jack white does that rythm in the chorus with the slide, this verse rythm is just 7-7-10-7-5-3-2

[Jeannine8811]

@oysteinre right you are!

[haha14701]

thats only when hes playing on all three stings if you listen to the song in the beginning he only plays this part

[blakey303]

lmao he looks like Gilby Clarke from Guns N' Roses

[kekselite]

its reay easy :) but nice sound ;) i like it more on bass^^

[libmrbrownducks]

"There's not much to it" I'd like to punch this guy. This has got to be one of the most gutted, pathetic vids showing you a song. If you want this guy to show you how to play a song you need to spend more time listening to the real music. Could you show me where the 7th fret is again, I got lost a little at that part. Moron.

[JasperJasperNL]

@libmrbrownducks

Dude take your medicine

[SuperJimBobJoe]

AWESOME

[SH4LLOWGR4VE925]

wow, thank dude!

[Fishermen1990]

quite easy :) thx 5*

[JSSJSDASD]

dude nice video!

[MagicalLeopleuridon]

i just tought myself this before watchingthis :D i learned it on piano so i thought bout where ther keys are on piano and tought myself that way. nice guitar btw

[kommeht00]

hey can I have ur guitar?

[woowhyeay31]

FUCKIN EASY!!!!!!!!

[Hitamaru]

"Practice with your guts out, i know its pretty hard"

[xxBAILEY27xx]

really really easy riff

[gabriel14182]

actually Jack plays in his guitar but q tune his 6th string in B

[mojoscary]

actually.... he doesnt.....

Jacks guitar is tuned open A (EAEAC#E)

and he uses a Digitech Whammy for the octave down setting. He turns the whammy off for the choruses.

[ssjgoten588]

Acctually, while playing the main verse, you go 7 7 10 7 5 3 2, then 7 7 10 7 5 3 5 3 2. That is how it is really played. just thought i should throw that out there

[mojoscary]

it only does that change in the chorus.... in the verses the first part does remain constant.

[metallicaguy85]

No, He Does That With Power Chords During The Chorus, The Whole Intro He Does What Was Explained, Go Listen To The Song Again
