[AljThe5]

[yaplamf]

@AljThe5 Yeah lol

[AljThe5]

[AljThe5]

cooool but i don't understand tabs :(

[Zapdos1029]

[yaplamf]

@Zapdos1029 The strings are named EADGBE and I play G D A G D A G D

[Zapdos1029]

@yaplamf thanks

[Beziizeb]

thx 5/5 sub:)

[misterrobertpattz]

[Zapdos1029]

@misterrobertpattz try tuning your guitar?

[leloou34]

How long did you play guitar ?

[yaplamf]

@leloou34 around 2 years now! do you play?

[leloou34]

@yaplamf Yeeeh I play too :)

[asiangirlxtreme]

I love you for putting this up! ^.^

[TheBmak1234]

it sounds nothing like the song no offense but the chords are completly wrong

[Redbladez7]

ye i almost throw it out of the window;P

[Redbladez7]

i got my guitar today can nothing it's fucking hard in the begining ....

[yaplamf]

Yeah it gets frustrating! You'll feel like throwing it through the window soon haha but be patient! As soon as you learn you're first song it's amazing!

[johnny200916]

i just couldnt sing like BILL

i think it's a problem now=( so sad

haha, maybe u can teach me how to sing,not only how to play

ill try harder and then my friends and i will win the competition and then we can do the performance!!

another sorry for my poor ENGLISH

[yaplamf]

@johnny200916 I can't sing lol but the whole point of doing your own version is that it shouldn't sound like Tokio Hotel. It should sound like your own.

[Emogal1991]

yeah it is i actually like them both tbh i think it sounds gr8 either way :)

[gymaddict1011]

at 0:58 what strings do u pluck i can't quite make out the strings ur plucking

im just learning how to play guitar so srry if this is a stupid question :-/

[yaplamf]

@gymaddict1011 This is the pattern of the string I pluck doing each one individually. G, D, A, G, D, A, G, D. then repeat that on the different frets.

[DramaQueenKatya]

I am sorry .. I am a beginner *watched this video with my mouths open all the way through* can you please tell me, can I learn this without the pedal?

[Emogal1991]

@DramaQueenKatya yeah you just won't have any of the same effects thats all :)

[xTOMx483]

Can you also send me these tabs?

Because I think they're very close to the original version and can't find them anywhere else.

It's very good <3

[Daiquiriboy]

finally, someone took the time to teach us this song. Thanks man

[SuicidalxCheerio]

In The Verses, Are You Strumming All The Strings Or Just Some??

Sorry, Bit Of A Dumb Question, I Don't Know How To Play Guiutar And I Found One In My Wardrobe So I Thought It Would Be Pretty Cool To Play This Song!

Great Vid! =]

[yaplamf]

You only strum the A and D strings :o)

[annabanana12369]

thank you so much! in honor of Tokio Hotel winning at the EMAs (YAY!!!), i'm learning this song and this was so helpful!

it was genius putting the tabs on the video while you were playing ;)

P.S. i like your backround on your profile!!!=D

[xxXRyuHayabusaXxx]

so good Tab.

[death2uall669]

the chorus bit sounds wrong to me. im not sure what it is about it, but it doesnt sound quite right

[yaplamf]

I think the whole video sounds a bit odd. Lol.

But I put up another video of me doing a cover of it once I got my new pedal so you can see how it should sound. I'm still playing it the same way though.

[death2uall669]

im no expert, in fact im crap at guitar, but it jus sounded off, but i was thinking guitar hero style chords, now that i actually think about it, you're notes are right. thanks bud, appreciatte the vid, good tutorial:D

[YumiKoyuki]

wow thank you very much, this helped me a lot! :D:D

[tokiohotel302gurl]

Wow that was confusing but I some what understand now! thank you! XD :P

[tokiohotel302gurl]

Hey! Ummm when you said that the string on the bottom is the fattest and the top was the thinnest, I was confused because on my guitar, its the opposite of what you said. XD :P

[yaplamf]

Yeah that's what they're called the fattest one (the one that is closest to the roof) is called the bottom string (don't ask me why.... I don't make the rules hahaha)

[YumiKoyuki]

that's because when you're holding the quitar the fattest string is the lowest from your point of view :3

[xogerbiliciousxo]

@tokiohotel302gurl his strings are backwards:3

[tokiohotel302gurl]

Wow! That helped a lot! XD Thanks a bunch! Now I wonder if I can get the song right this time... :P Teehee

[tokiohotel302gurl]

Ok cool! Umm, are the tabs the guitar stings or the lines on the guitar? That's what confuses me most about the guitar! XD :P

[yaplamf]

Yeah just imagine the guitar tab to be the 6 strings on the guitar. The bottom line is the fattest string and the top line is the thinnest!

And the numbers tell you which fret to hold the string down on

[tokiohotel302gurl]

HI! ur awesome but idk what the numbers mean! :P idk anythin bout guitar thats why i write my own songs by ear XD

[yaplamf]

It's called a guitar tab. Try and google it and it tells you how to read them! It's quite easy!

[KellanPoo]

you think you can send me the tab to this song

[lilgangstar202]

can u help me wv the cords cause its hard for me 2 remmember and i actully dont get them.

[yaplamf]

Yeah cool I'll send you a message

[MegaMrRawr]

thanks sooo much dude (y)

[Wassernixe883]

Thank you SO much for this, it really helped me! I think you're amazing, keep up the work ! =)

[yaplamf]

Nice thanks very much! The sound isn't great but I'll make a new one soon hopefully!

[marioking93]

[TheGuitarJew]

could you just post up the link where you got your tabs cause this is an easy song just long so i forget some parts sometimes so i could have something to look back at. please and thank you.

[yaplamf]

I dont have the tabs mate i just write them out on the video lol I didn't get them from anywhere they're just my own

[lewiskac]

i play it a different way this one doesnt sound like the original but its a god version for beginners to learn nice video you should make more 4 stars ;p

[EverSorrow1]

what is the tuning for this song???

[yaplamf]

I use standard but Tom tunes his half a step down.

[Copilot0110]

you only strum the strings you are using right?

[yaplamf]

Yep that's it! let me know if u need any help.

[tokiohotel86743]

um on the nice pretty part after the begaining what strings do u strum and how do u strum them bc that part is confusing to me

[yaplamf]

You play each string individually like this: D - G - B - D - G - B -D -G

[blinkatreyu]

Nice epiphone!

Aniways thank-x for the lesson!!

It was pretty awesome!

[Jollan33]

[blondgirl101]

[yaplamf]

No problem! And don't be shy, if you need any help at all no matter how small it might seem i'll try my best to help just send me a message :o)

[michael791231]

simple notes and beat

good practice and sounds nice :D

[ryanrossesgf]

[THRoooock]

10 000 view =) i am that guy =))

[dannykovacs12]

erm after the left me so alone bit it has a constant high note rather then the intro bit is that the guitar or is it something else?

[mrvj17]

wowowoww..hold on a second

1.- from 1 to 10 I give you 6

2.-no matter how much did u guitar cost, if you suck at playing, a million dollars guitar won't make a difference

3.-the first chorus is played in higher tone

4.- I play it better even with a 50$ guitar

[yaplamf]

1- Fair enough

2 - I know... I have a few guitars

3 - Yes Tom's guitar is tuned differenty I just like mine to have standard tuning

4 - Put a vid on

[xXKaulitzLadyXx]
