You think could play "It's alright ma" by Bob Dylan? I know the chords but just cant seem to get it right.

I will certainly be giving this a go.

[ccpp90]

[rosalinerox]

this was really good. dude what strings were you using? they looked extra bendy

[ramstacp]

i didnt realize that matt damon was into dmb. haha

[chgotchr]

Great tutorial. Your strumming is tough to follow. One question - what do you play when it gets to the line "With mountains and oceans and winters and rivers and stars". I still cant get that part down right.

[StardreamerPF]

Good tutorial. Subscribed.

[tophkika]

forget it..i already understood it, thank you anyway!

[twostep16]

great job...really helpful...id like to see alligator pie ;)

[scotsman1592]

Dude. I love DMB and have been w/ them since 1994. It was a bad day when Leroi Moore passed, but glad to see it did not stop the bands tour. You are pretty dam good, and glad you posted this new song. I will try to learn it... PEACE..

[ak137lg]

could u tell me the strumming pattern. still dont quite get it

[biglonie]

its like down up down up down up up up

check out my video for Dave's part

[biglonie]

dave nor tim plays it that way!

[EasyAsPieGuitar]

I am aware. But I'm combining both parts... Dave doesn't play the single notes, and Tim doesn't play the chords. So, this is a fusion of the two. Anyway, it's the best I can do. Thanks for watching, and thanks for the comment!

[biglonie]

did you see the way i play it ?

[firedancer41364]

yeah I saw... you play it wrong

[biglonie]

hey hey wait a second, it was based of the first tab i read. i did not hear the song enough to know the differences. i'm making a new video in a few minutes.

[MityMitch]

wow dude you do awesome tutorials....this helped me so much

can you please do my baby blue and you and me by dave matthews

[justrd9]

what's the strumming pattern on the verse and the beginning of the chorus? I can't quite figure it out.

[fewpoundcory]

the chord with bass note b is Bminor

[EasyAsPieGuitar]

b minor is played with the notes B D F#

I'm playing B D G

which is just a major G chord inversion.

So, I am not playing a b minor. Neither does Dave, although I think he plays his G major inversion differently than I do.

I'm guessing you've seen Dave play it differently and assumed it was a b minor, or you're looking at incorrect tabs/chords somewhere.

Either way, if you're playing a b minor, you're playing it incorrectly.

Thanks for the comment, and thanks for watching!

[fewpoundcory]

watch my cover of this song, and you will see that bminor fits in flawlessly to the song. while dave may not play a bminor, the electric guitarist does

[RGKleid]

Thanks a bunch. Had to learn this song so thank you. I watched Dave play it from MSG on YouTube and didn't see him play play that chord all the way up on the 5th fret (7-x-5-7)

[EasyAsPieGuitar]

No problem, I'm glad it helped. Yeah, I don't always play exactly the same as Dave, I just play what seems easiest.

[JKDMartialArt]

Awesome tut for FTWIS! I learned it quicker watching this a couple times than I would have with a tab in front of me!

Great job - you're an excellent teacher.

[JKDMartialArt]

Shake Me Like A Monkey would be a great follow up btw 8-)...

[jpinero1]

dude you're sick, and a great teacher. Any other new dave tutorials you feel like puttin up would always be welcome. Thanks for this!

[filmtress]

Thanks. I was fingering it out on my small keyboard as you instructed.  Nice. YOu make is look 'as easy as'...you know.

[NohoKuokoa]

Does anyone know where to get the sheet music to this song?

[sp21u9rs]

[theginnz]

More DMB please! This tutorial is amazing!  Spaceman and Why I Am next? Keep up the great work! Cheers...

[jordanmb1836]

great dude! very impressive.

[MrReise]

Thak you very much! Is this a Taylor 714 or a 914?

[EasyAsPieGuitar]

it's a 314... can't afford a 714 or 914 just yet!!!

[vdubbed81]

More DMB broken down like this please?!!!?

[knickfan427]

nice job! what is the struming in the verse and chorus?

[JayBTV]

Good work.

Spaceman please! :)

[phineasgauge69]

Damn, Dude! You sure have an ear. I would have never figured that one out, and I can play a shitload of Dave songs.

[JamesWojo]

Thanks...very impressive.

[robgerber1]

this is sweet thanks!

[LLSKH]

impressive! Thanks

[bretthickman]

Thank You!

[iggysoccer20]

in the chorus the third chord is a Bm, just FYI

[EasyAsPieGuitar]

it isn't, it's actually just another G major chord but a different inversion. I didn't want to get into too much theory, but itf you're playing it as a bminor you're playing it wrong.

[iggysoccer20]

Ah yes you are correct. I mistook that he was playing the fourth fret of the D string instead of the fifth which would be a Bm. Here it is a simple inverted G or a Bm with and augmented fifth.

[EasyAsPieGuitar]

ha thank you for the confirmation...I haven't seen him play it but I knew from listening that it wasn't a minor chord. if I could give some advice, I'd say don't rely on looking- listen to the music. your ears are much more accurate than your eyes when it comes to sound. cheers.

[lbcelo10]

how the hell did you figure this out already

[phmancus]

good job man. was working on it myself as well, I'll probably have the cover up tomorrow since I'm at work now.
