[OnePieceOfKenichi]

[singingaboutnothingg]

[kiaballerina5]

ahh thank you so much! this was exactly the video I needed. much appreciated!

[ringmap]

thank you so much this was exatly what i needed

[ohwowjillybob1]

Why does there have to be and f chord in this song. I'm a beginner and i though this song would be fairly easy, but i can't play and f chord yet. :)

[singingaboutnothingg]

@ohwowjillybob1

you can try a different variation of the chord, you could play it with your first finger on the first string first fret, second finger on the second string first fret, third finger on the third string second fret and pinky on the fourth string third fret, its a way to play the f without barring the first two strings :)

[MickfromTassie]

Thanks mate. I have been looking everywhere to see how to pick this song and you helped me heaps. Thanks :)

[TheLollipop123456]

thats wrong

[DeniseGeiger]

@TheLollipop123456 YOU SUCK !

[scarmitdy]

hell yeah man ths helped me out alot! 5 stars

[itsmonti1]

Thanks for this great video. playing with your thumb is a great tutorial method to see which string is being picked. Good job!

[sjabbadoing]

Thanks for the viD! helped alot! : )

I was just wondering, many have these small exstra picks on the strings between the verse and the chorus, someone who want to tell me how to play it?

[PavlecOnTube]

omg y donesnt like very one make lessons like this its so simple :) thx alot :)

[Shawk132]

Nice cover. Try to play with more fingers than only the tumb, maybe doesn't sound better, but would look much more proffesional, though ;)

Try play E7 instead of Em.

I play it like this: C - Am - C - Am - C - Am - C - Am - F - G - C - G - C - ½F - ½G - Am - F - G - E7 - 2Am - 2F - 2Am - 2F - C - G - C - Am - C - Am

And over and over again five times if you want to play the end in the easy and short way.

[barjtom]

playing with the thumb was probably for instructional purposes

[Posselit0]

@Shawk132 dude, it's not a cover, it's a lesson :P

[0CTF0]

/love >:

[nainatube]

Thank you *o*!

[Grayhatt]

Bah I tried posting the easy F chord but YouTube wont let me. . . or something.

[21whatsmyname95]

can you play an easy F for this or does it have to be the real F?

[Grayhatt]

I usually play the "easy F" lol and it sounds pretty good still. Of course a full F probably sounds better, maybe for the higher bassy notes, but it changes quickly from F to the next chord it almost doesn't matter.

[chuket36]

muy bien

saludos desde mexico

te agradesco mucho

[BenRingroseMusic]

Seriously this is a brilliant video. I was unsure of the picking pattern untill i saw this. Fantastic - Many thanks!

[JonasMusicc]

Thank you! :)

[poiuytrewqlkjhgfdzmx]

this is a really good vid, although i got a bit confused, good job.

[khen8890]

hey i'm a real beginner here. is the F chord a barre chord? man, thats tough right? is there another way to play this song without the barre chords? =(

[Sweeedenx3]

There is a fake F chord, it sounds the same, just easier.

[Cherio07]

hahah THANK GOD for the fake F!!! lol

[Erolennahx]

thank you SO much for doing the picking thing cause that was all i've had to know yet! THANKS

[l4jnda]

please could you do it the same tempo all song i didn't see all when youu start to to it faster. But thanx anyway dude :)

[RaspberryIceT]

Ah don't worry. It's really pretty simple. Just hit the bass string for each chord (for C and Am, it's the 5th string; for F, G , and Em, it's the 6th string), and then hit the 4th, 3rd, 2nd, 3rd, 4th strings in that order. After that you change chords.

[CatBlue2G]

Can you post the chord progression?

[harveyisgod1]

usefull vid dude

[frederiksenphilip]

thank you so much ! :)

[Nicio27]

amazing! just what i'v been looking for :D Thanks!

[Redbullet112]

im a bit confused.. but thats probably

because I just a beginner.

thanks though ..

this helped me big time =]

[trippyguitar]

dont use de same chords then you show on the videos but its verry nice of you to show how to play it with fingerpicking. thanks!

[Posse93]

No, it's the same chords.

[Guitarplayer177]

is this Jeff Buckleys Version

[Posse93]

No, It's the Rufus Wainwright version

[xprettyxninjax]

wait...i learned to play it a different way...you start on the A string and skip D and play excactly the same tempo as you and everything

[Posse93]

No, but if I used all fingers you coundn't se where I was picking:D

[sdey521]

i have a question- i'm a beginner, and i want to play this, picking it the right way... what fingers do you use?

[LakierosJordy]

Original song is played in G though (starts with G, not C) so this is kindof wrong (and much more difficult to sing with.)

Still cheers for the effort

[yeaurhot06]

ur awesome not enough ppl do this

[rapturerock]

brilliant.......thats all i can say

[AutumnJake]

Great stuff man.

[Gipape57]

[snowboarda5231]
