[TheCosmokramer09]

[buckarooni101]

[adameld]

Great news... Im probably getting my computer back soon! I need some ideas on what to learn/show, but again, i have to like the song as well, otherwise I won't be as anxious to get it on youtube. Sorry im being so picky, I want to do a lot more videos but don't have the time.

[ONLYUSEmeKLAW]

I honestly thought i was going to cry when i heard you play it

[Goiodie]

Hey man, post some more! And more in depth, this is awesome, and you can play so go for it.

[milesgti]

There's a pretty good tab on ultimate guitar...

[spunkenmeyer]

[Mednicoff]

[Retarbiter]

[skegnewman93]

[JumboStevo]

Good job btw! not exact but props man

[thevombaur]

The best SS cover is here (not mine)

[CodiHatfield1]

your out of tune

[ppenna100]

maaaaaaan, the only guy on youtube who actualy plays closer to the sun don't even know the names of the chords. you're good man, nobody on youtube play this shit right.

[chenny040]

wow i was soo impressed when u started playingg!

[lynch0017]

you legit look like glenn beck... unfortunately

[geoffsk8nz]

Thanks a lot man, that's like sitting around learning a song from a friend. Doesn't matter about chord names, it's how you show it and play it. Nice job.

[mrizzle44]

dude i fucking love you taqb hahah!

[crmaloney2]

nice denim shorts

[gg77721]

whats the chord where you "pumped up and down"?

[quinn1523]

your good

[b1azers2002]

Lmao... "Not experienced enough"...

Then goes on to play a fairly difficult song,

Good Job Bro, helped out alot.

[lowmode100]

That was good I made a band and I was thinking of playing that sa one of our songs

[Lianneth]

Sounds pretty good to me, too.

I like the thought of not being boxed in by names of chords and knowledge of that whole formulaic side to playing an instrument. Silly youtubers just don't get it, heh. Thanks for posting. x

[saomylife22]

All you people who are hatting on him. Calm down! All your doing is spreading the hate. That's not going to get you into Zion. Come on now.... Were all reagge listeners here. Have we not listened to the words there saying. Maybe were not really listening at all then.

[ItsMyBread]

Nice video,just learn the frets and strings and you will be kickin ass lol

[sirmurfy615]

considering you dont even know the names of chords, you did pretty damn good dude. these other faggots can sssuck muh bawlz. 5 stars.

[1supaflyninja]

Dont care if not exactly right, if you dont like it move on..enjoy watching anyone willing to share. dont need you to walk me through chords, should know them, or just watch his fingers . not that hard. quite whinning you pussies!

[matthelion]

Come on dude! Tune the dam guitar.... This is an awesome song.... You wrecked it. You do look like an arse.

[FishburnCorporation]

worst tab ever lol

[ewil721]

that sounds pretty good to me.

[bond8437]

thats not a tab?

[gerbman2004]

if your not quite experienced enough you shouldnt put it on youtube

[teddyisawesome]

OWN damn gerbman2004 u r da man!!

[cpc80]

it's a to g to c to d. that was pretty much right but the a and d have different notes than what you played. but than again it's mostly improvised appregios so ... what ever :D

[MrFunkadelius]

hahahaha buen video, buena rolaaaaaaaaa

[RealOriginality]

1.) tune your guitar

2.) learn how to play

3.) take this video off

[gg77721]

1.) his guitar is tuned

2.) he obviously can play

3.) no, it helps people

[CodiHatfield1]

@gg77721

so not in tune. still a good job though

[BOBofGH]

wrong

[mike4390116]

most of this sounds right except for a few notes don't listen to these fuckin tards ahah

[mrwashur1991]

i think it sounds right but either your guitar is out of tune or sucks lol...and i dont understand how you can play a song like this and not know what a g or c chord is

[burgerboot]

definitely wrong but nice try

[leenygurl91]

gaaaaay

[manykarz]

I have that same guitar! and I have it in my hands right now, about to try to learn closer to the sun...

Sanuk Greg Bennet design...

[Puffmaddra]

Dude heys fuccin annoyin whn ur high, he doesnt seem to eva shut up ahah

[alabamarox]

hahah dude im so baked and i was thinking the same damn thing . I was wondering if he is high he seems like he is trippi out

[Puffmaddra]

nah dude hes jst alittle slow it seems man u dnt live anyway n GA do ya?

[xrisingx68]

Where did you learn that?

[mzfanz4lyf]

omg thanks a milion! now i have a better ideaf how it sounds, youre a life saver :D

& for anyone who doesnt know, the basic chords that the song is played off of are : a g c d for the begining

[irboone]

you don't know the name of the chords you are playing but you can play a hard ass song i love it!

[addyMcfuck]

wrong a bit but you'll nail it as you go

[HardcoreVibes17]

even if hes holding the pick a different way...sounds awesome..lol

[Tewks44]

definatly one of the better tabs i've seen so far. and a word of advice, try holding the pick so your hand stays flatter, and you'll find its easier to pick at the strings. I hold the pick with my thumb and the side of my middle finger, but whatever is most comfortable is usually the best as long as ur hand is flat

[seanyt003]

your a funny dude

[LisaJOYlove]

haha, you are so funny, i love your personality. good at guitar too, thanks for the lesson ; )

[chancafer]

Don't listen to the haters, they're watching because they DON'T know how to play it. Thanks for takin the time, good job.

[mecrobisnowheretosk8]

sorry to correct you but i do know how to play it. im watching cuz i wanna see how other ppl sound while playing it. but i do have to agree that this is a great lesson although hes using the wrong chords. the right chords are a Am, G, C, and D. but idk why but i think this version is amazing

[kooliuf]

wow thank you great video and the names of the chords helped lol

[rocker123cc]

Dam..harder than it looks D:!

[GlockDoc36]

yeh you play this totally wrong...

[GARRETH94]

dude u hold the pick wrong

[rockstr91]

Dude awesome!! I could never figure out the second part after the intro.. i couldn't find it anywhere but you helped alot... keep playing man, when i learn it il send you my video :D

[whitetrashkenny182]

thank u so much

ive been trying to learn this song for ever... u may have just helped me get this girl XD

I LUV U MAN

[iiawah07]

holy shit

i just bought that guitar today haha

270 with a hard case

[adameld]

it sounds fuckin rad with new steel strings. Hell, I think it sounds better than a cole clark if not the same. it also takes a lot of punishment (I keep knocking it over by accident) You are going to love it!

[ualaxin22]

dude the first part is tight

[adameld]

:( the computer broke down a few weeks ago, and my brother and I can no longer upload our videos even just to our computer. We will do our best to figure this out, but until then, no more tabs :(

[chiefassballs]

real nice work for someone that doesnt know names of chords :)

keep up the great work man

[fredblink18287]

oh, and also it seems much easier to me to use my pinky.

[adameld]

ya, I recently figured out that that's the right way to play (with pinky) but the picking isn't what i'm having trouble with, it's the finger placement. I made a new vid though so check it out.

[fredblink18287]

Can you play it fast though? I'm surprised enough that you can play what you played holding the pick like that...try to correct that and you shouldn't have any problems playing fast.

[KingSaw1012]

like your guitar man i got the exact same one

[HEYxxHOLLY]

wow. that was amazing! very precise playing. i love this song man and i wish i could play guitar lol

[shaaron87]

you're a cool dude, thanks for doing this me and my amateur band are gonna attempt to cover it. Keep on rocking in the free world!

[tsevero100]

hey man can you give me the tabs please!

i really need

thanks a lot

[adameld]

Best of luck to you and your band. I know you guys can pull it off!

[burnurguitar]

yeaahh you guys must all be tone deaf. no offense man, but you're playin it wrong.

[quanzi30]

ballin man....chexmix is a tool

[chexmix54321]

thank u burnurguitar

[crewdog121]

you play pretty good...

i wish i could actually learn from this..

its kinda hard tho when you dont kno the chords

[chiBiHiEi12123]

it sounds really good! i cant believe you just figured that out!!! your guitar is maaadly out of tune tho. but good job

[jameshawkinson]

good tab man, mad props

[moogley24]

its still freakin nasty good

[4thGeerd]

a little off. i have a video of it up if you wanna check it out. i was fuckin around with it though

[chexmix54321]

seriously dude? this is pretty bad..

why would u make this if you cant even play it and dont know the names of chords?

and im pretty sure thats wrong. at least the first part

[Natadze]

Make a better vid then dumbass, that sounded pretty good to me

[chexmix54321]

yeah it sounds fine i guess but like learn ur shit before u make a tab

[Longcatcrusade]

fuckin sick

[Gentalar]

hey bro,

best tab iv seen yet

and yoiu make the slide really even out

thanks

[everydaySublime]

mad chill dude. better part is 90% of kids don't even know theory, so this is a rad demo vid bra

[homeman22]

A G C D pick through it ... not hard.

[yami334]

That sounds tough, great job

Your so funny and down to earth.

Much love<3

[ycisbetter]

frikin sweet dude. thanx a ton.

[AdrenalineBoas]

Remember guys, i don't get my tabs anywhere. I am not even sure if my tabs are correct. They sure sound correct, which is good enough for me. But is it enough for you?

[natestrong35]

that was awsome..thanx

[SDboii04]

tab zeplike

[adameld]

i'm officially working on it.

[adameld]

ok, new vid out, but I just play it more correctly. watch this one first and go from there to learn from it. I'm sorry I haven't made any new videos lately, but I'm kind of in a road block. I don't know what to tab. I would love to take reguests to find tabs for your favorite song, but I have to be "into" the song to be able to tab it.

[SurgeZ1018]

i have the arpeggios if anyone wants me to send them the tabs.

[moshpittttt]

please.

[SurgeZ1018]

This song is actually really easy to play. Its all hammer ons from easy chords. if you guys want tabs subscribe me and i'll make a video. it's so easy.

[sweetnector08]

How the fuck can you play that when you dont even know what the chords are. I know what chords are and i still cant get this shit down.

[Brownie7108]

how can you play the guitar and not even know what the open chords are? im baffled

[tool1017]

pretty good but your either full of shit or ignorant if you dont know any of the chords your playing

[BrittneyANM]

Ahaha you're a hoot! How cute (:

[beachxboy94]

really good tab dude. it really helped with the hammer-ons and stuff but the first chord is an A, the second one is a G, and the third is a C in the intro and at the end of the entro in the last hameron thing a D works really well

[adameld]

im back. new vid soon.

[shittingfuck55]

gay

[beachxboy94]

god you suck i wanna know this song so bad

[XKATR1EL]

i got the first half with the c and g chords but the pumps and hammer-ons at the end do u think u can slow down and zoom in and show step by step id really appreciate it cuz i wanna learn the whole song =D

[sportsmen00]

:D....................D

[jmcrae5003]

hahaha this dudes wearing jorts

[theking118]

haha yeah nice jean shorts. saw that too haha

[gspar427]

thats not exactly right i think, but if you can play this song right you are pretty good at guitar

[SOJ144]

how can you play that good but not know the chord names. lol

[jskaff]

lol i bet you looked at the tab on the internet, but still you executed the song well for not being very experienced

[maxburton117]

hey, how do you pick it?

[Crosby4hyg]

sounds like ur a little outa tune but no worries..nice work to be able to work this out by ear tho its more than most ppl can do including myself

[E1evenE1even11]

siiiick

[jptilldeath]

hahah its great how you make the comment that you aren't experienced but you can play it perfectly.

[jammin6491]

sweet jorts man

[miltabib]

Your not experience enough. but u play it dam good! thks 4 helping us :)

[XKATR1EL]

all you gotta learn is the finger picking n shit but thanks because after this i looked at the picking in the video just watch the picking

[iseeamouse]

your kind of dumb

[mspicoli619]

DAMN i need the internet back. I'm much better at this song. i have it down to a science now.

[blueowl92]

At least you can admit that you don't know what the fuck you're doing.

[karmacost029]

let me help you out bro.... the chord progression in the intro is A G C D and these are fingerpicked hammering off the base note in each chord and the little solo part is an A to G to a C then back to A all barred and you can just kind of improv your own style on the arpeggios

[beatlesmakelove]

this is a really chill song. are u palaying a 12 string? looks like a tacoma.

[JMIRULEZ]

"...so enjoy the song or whatever the FUCK i just played for you"

oh god dude you're hilarious ahhahaha

[pishandchibbs]

This is great. I like it.

[aculmo]

Yo thanks alot for the help. I knew the chords but the part after the A chord and G chord Riff. I couldnt Figure it out. Thanks for the tips.

[slowride677]

how do you learn all these songs

[NovaHoops21]

dude how did u learn guitar? how long u been playin? I find it hard to believe that u can play this song fairly well without knowing any chords...if so then more power to ya, but ive been playin for like not even a year, but i know alot of basic chords but still cant play this song

[scotty4163]

you don't need to kno chords just 2 be able to play

[smotpoker86]

I agree with vizzle26 to a extent... like maybe he should at least learn how to tune the guitar

[cordelious911]

maybe you should shut the hell up vizzle26

[vizzle26]

maybe before you teach guitar you should learn how to play first

[norcalskimmer]

thank you adam, thank you!

[Rivelution]

Does anyone have a website with the ACTUAL tabs. This vid is pretty helpful, but I can figure it out if I had the actual tabs.

[gabeleoni]

hey buddy. this is the most legit modern acoustic song i know. your vid helped me out!but the beggining is acutally a bit off

[edoggydogg2]

if you dont know the name of the chords, dont be a tool and evn post a vid

[sublime95]

I haven't seen anyone on youtube do a better cover of this song than this guy. It surprises me that no one has truly mastered this song on guitar..

[Radiator55]

stop being douche bags who cares if he didn't give you cords, if your gonna cry about go make your own video, this is obviously helpful, bro

[roycie123]

can someone tell me how he is picking the beggining part?

[TimOXC]

look guys, he said he didn't know the name's of the cords that dosn't mean he cant play them... This vid isn't him trying to show off he just wants to help people to play the song... Don't flame him for being helpful...

Good vid... Such a nice song...

[kalmanator100]

u shouldn't be tabbing any song if you dont the names of the chords, or the whole song. Not helpful at all, bro

[dynamiteproducer]

is the first chord A major?

[RunningFromSafety]

haha dude you did awesome. lots of help

[JONDOYLE43]

a little off

[sublime95]

you're awesome man!! respect!!

[XxxDrMcDoomxxX]

haha you do talk too much, but you did pretty good.

But you don't need to know the chord names to be a great guitarist. Just look at Dimebag...

[bitchhoe121]

if you dont know what a G chord is and you play guitar your retarded

[tristenman123]

srry but hes right thats the first cord i learned

[rencilein]

MEN LET ME TELL YOU PLAy the son pretty good but you talk too much hahaha, thanks a lot

[NOPA308]

dude u suck if u can play that song u should no the names of the fuckin chords its A C G D and ur guitar is a little bit outa tune

[charleylovesmusic]

the chords are actually A - G - C - D... what you did was totally wrong, well you had the g and c

[mjturner1]

radness my brother, thank you.

[InuAva]

...GAH!!! so good! i cant find the tabs to this song at all!!!im dying =( umm does anyone have a link to the tabs? good job dude!

[thesteamroller]

haha i thought he was joking at first

[morgan19921992]

shit your good, im jealous

haha, bad teacher, and this video made me laugh

[SaviorSelf756]

haha, love this video. actually pretty accurate, too. definitely helps with learning the song.

[rmdeangler]

does anyone have the link for these tabs? i cant find it anywhere

[llamasarus]

no. the chords are A G C D

[pettinzoo32]

the chords go A C G D

[guitarplyr26]

close, it's A G C D. and that helped me out with playing the song so thanks.

[Madchriz]

my question is, how the hell are you so good yet you dont know the names of basic chords :O

haha sweet vid bra.

[zacdamac69]

pretty sure he sucked a chode before and mayb he has down syndrome?

[diogo1fan9]

have you ever sucked on a dick???

[redsoxfan01918]

hey if you need tabs to this song or any other song go to ultimate-guitar . com. they have everything

[shaggy5182]

[Gbaypackers06]

Good Job man just tune that baby up!
