This is awesome! It seems like such a complicated song to play and I thought I was going to have to sit here for hours to try and learn it but nope. I pretty much watched your video twice, give a take a few pauses(hah!), and I got it! This is an awesome tutorial! Thank you SO much! You're great! :)
This was SO HELFUL!!! I am accompanying two friends at a school show and I was wondering why the chords sounded funny! Cuz it's played in DADGAD!! and I just it into the tuning a few months ago so I was super excited to find this video! Thank you so much for making this tutorial!!!!!!
@cmcgovern91 could you do the second step by itself so we can know how you strum and what it should sound like? It's the low A strum...I don't get what your doing.
@SteveDave29 I would politely disagree. Drop D tuning is different from DADGAD. In Drop D you only detune the low E string down to D or some also detune the high E string. In DADGAD you detune 3 specific strings (low E to D, high B to A, high E to D) in order to achieve a specific sound by playing entirely different chord shapes than you would in standard tuning.
Thanks - Great job explaining song - Heard the song for the first time just a few days ago loved it. I thought maybe I could play it with a llittle help. Upload more.
This was fucking brillient, this is the first time I've ever been able to do anything different with my guitar other than play straight chords, thanks :)
Thank you. Excellent.........just excellent bit of tuition. Now if you can just teach my wife and I to sing as well as The Civil Wars I'll be in Heaven!!
How old are you? You are a great teacher. Thanks for the tutorial. Now my family will have to put up with me murdering this beautiful song for the next couple of weeks. All the best to you.
Thanks so much this really helped :)
