[CR2501A]

There's this thing in music, we call it phrasing. Learn it. My god man LEARN it. Stop singing, you suck at it

[MrNadseven]

@CR2501A hows about you stop trolling and insulting a man who puts his time and effort to give us free and detailed lessons. If you dont like his singing, go learn this song from somebody else.

[jamesnoahearvin32]

can i strum it

[Moodo1]

I just have to say I really enjoy your guitar lessons. The songs you teach are right up my alley, I have always loved the classics. Thanks for all of your time and dedication.

[09226022750]

Please reply

[Moodo1]

@09226022750 On the A string: --0--2------3-----

[Moodo1]

@09226022750 On the A string: --0--2--- and in to the C chord.

[Laaurem1]

Brilliant I can now play the song thanks for showing us all how it's played excellent

[bowlingworld]

thanks...

[MrZimbabwe6]

Great Lesson, very helpful!

@Blake91129 the chord is essentially a G major chord but you don't pick the G root

[BrianGriffin96]

i like that you sing most guitarist are

afraid to do so while playing

[MrSinnerYoung]

The beginning of the video.......that was beautiful man!

[pcpaul738]

Hi Mark,

Thanks for the lesson. I've always liked your teaching style. After playing the guitar for 30 years I am just now starting to learn 'Travis-Picking'. Do you alternate between the bass strings only at the chord changes? I took your advice and purchased a 'Little Martin' guitar..It's a great sounding guitar and good quality for the price. Being an old-timer ( born in 1953) I'm wondering why you don't delete the vulgar posts from the ill-mannered morons that insist on vulgarity?

[mrwjholland]

@pcpaul738 FUCK YOU

[skem1951]

[rosie1bw]

[taffydavenport1]

Always a great instruction from you Mark! Thank you so much for helping us to learn these songs that seem impossible for mediocre players. Its fun to try and to get better and better!

[lglindfw]

Excellent, excellent, excellent!! Thanks for sharing your talents.

Question though: at 3:02 in the video you say "make G5 chord" but I can't quite make out the fingering. Is it 020030?

[blupblup20]

awesome video mate not too bad at singing but o well were learning guitar not singing

[Blake91129]

Hi, at 2:28 you say "and than make this chord, first string second fret and second string third fret"

but you don't make this chord but another one!

Maybe I've heard wrong, I'm italian xD...

Please can you explain what have you said ?

[goldhat3]

I say 5th string second fret and second string third fret,

x2003x

[lynnt1958]

When you play the d minor chord, do you squeeze the 4th and 1st strings or still on the 5th? That's the only part I can'T get to sound right. Great lesson, best on the web.

[goldhat3]

Good ear mate! Actually I do squeeze the 4th and first strings on the Dm.

[joe6stringsibanez]

great job sir ur a great guitar player and i really like ur singin

[StarLightStarBrighte]

Great Play!!! I know how play Dust in the wind in my own version. But im not sure when to use 3 to four fingers and the last part of the song is a little hard for me. Thank you.

[AdamKietLy]

Thank You so much! Excellent tutorial !!!

[silverrainhorse]

Mike, forgot to mention in my last comment....I adore your wallpaper!! In fact, I really love the background to your lessons. Love all the personal bits and pieces. It's much more pleasant than the usual blank wall studio type environment. Great.

Unfortunately, I still just can't catch that walking bass bit. I know it's literally only 2 or 3 notes, but I can't catch on to which ones they are & the ones I'm trying sound wrong.

[goldhat3]

Hi silverrainhorse, Glad you like all my little do-dads, I do too, and there is a story for every one. Keep practicing you will get the walking bass, it is always a little tricky for beginners.

[silverrainhorse]

Fab! Thank you so much. Only thing I can't get the hang of is the walking bass bit. I know it's going from Am to C but I'm unsure of the order of the strings & which should be held down during the walking bass bit. I'll probably get it if I watch it over a few times. I have to say, from a beginners point of view there are some genuine people giving great lessons on You Tube that other people are charging a fortune for and often aren't even as good! Thanks again.

[bigbangtayo]

thanks!!!!!!!

very much

[whereisgelodawg]

learn the song like dust in the wind

[mjd0124]

Fantastic guitar lesson. Thank u very much sir..

[gibsoneer321]

I enjoy all of your songs, I think this one you might try to place a capo on 2nd fret it might be more in your vocal range,so you don't have to reach so high. Just me. Good job though.

[BMWxM3xGTR]

awesome lesson micheal moore.

seriously sick was awesome...

(loved the video) ftw!

[robw95]

Great lesson Mark. I still cannot get over how majestic that Simon and Garfunkel guitar is. I was watching the lesson with one on the wall behind you!

[oj8b709q]

thanks man ive been trying to learn this song

[Powers129]

good song and good lesson

[Gottnex]

Thanks for the lesson!

[BeatlesRock118]

man you were good at that song keep it up!!!

[MurfOnAdrenalen]

like alot of yer vids. Could you do Fat Bottomed Girls by Queen?

[EHMTalentShow]

Great lesson Mark. Thanks for another of your very educational lessons.

[mygad]

Awesome as always Goldhat, and it's one of my favorite songs of all time. I understand how some folks don't get the song or get it and don't like it. But the tune itself is great, I like the words myself, and you do it justice as always. Thanks for bringing some of these songs back to life for the rest of us, take care Goldhat! It does look like you continue to enjoy yourself. :-)

[gogi682]

Not my favorite song to listen to, anymore, anyway, but one of the songs I'm enjoying playing cuz once you get the picking down it's so easy and recognizable with nice easy to do chords, so I'm practicing it alot these days - and loving it, so once again EXCELLENT lesson and thank you so much (keep the easy ones coming!)

[ShelterDogs]

I appreciate the lesson, goldhat. Just saw this in my subscription, and wanted to throw a quick comment. I wanted to say that this one classic pop/rock tune that I never could like. I never understood why. It's such a beloved and popular song. Maybe I heard it one too many times as a teenager on classic rock channels. I dunno. But thanks for the lessons, I do appreciate it.

[rickdav79]

love this song and I love your lessons Mark5*****!

ciao ciao

Davide

[deanb92]

Really great Mark! 5 stars!

[snapkrackelpop19]

I agree this is a song every guitarist needs to learn. It was the first fingerpinking song I learned, it took me FOREVER to learn though.

[andaacagar07]

[seadreamer12]
