hey there marty! I've learnt a lot of songs watching your videos but, in this one, I have a question: just after the first chorus, in the "uuuu uuu uuu uuu uuuuuuuu.." part, and then when the say "they don't know how long it takes, waiting for a love like this, everytime we say goodbye I wish we had one more kiss I'll wait for you I promise you, I wiiiiill" what chords do I play? I can't engage the chords on the video with that part :S
@javivifish Jason plays a pretty interesting chord for that bit, it starts with 053560, but your pinky on the B will actually alternate between 6th and 5th. After 4 counts of that it switches to 5x055x for four, then a G on the third fret (355433) for four, and back to the first chord for 4 more counts before repeating. I think Marty does it a bit different, sorry, but that's how Jason Mraz hits it. If you don't want to bother with the bars, Dm7(000211),Am,G,Dm7 works fine enough.
I think the best way to get the muted sound is to lift your left hand fingers. This does let the open strings ring, but it seems to create the right effect anyway.
I believe this is what Marty is doing, as well as a few other people on youtube videos I watched. If you want to make sure all the strings get muted, play barred versions of the chords.
How I'm doing the strumming is that I'm kind of letting the side of my hand rest lightly on the strings, putting no real pressure but just kind of having your hand there on the strings helps create the sound for the begining part. At least its good enough for me, try it and see.
I always check your channel for new songs to learn Marty, and when i find a song i'd like to learn that i don't think you have, i search for it here on youtube, and your's is the first lesson that comes up, why am I not surprised? You're awesome Marty and makes it fun for me that's just sitting alone playing for myself to learn new songs! :)
Im from malaysia...thx Marty...anyway...i hv some question to ask... i was wondering is'it normal that the 6Th sting sound like 'Tiiiingg' like abit to high...and i cant get the sound like urs does....
@rylo115 I don't stop it, I just let my hand on the chords, like right on the bridge of the guitar, so it stops the sound a bit. Anyways, that's how I do it :P
Dude you're a cool nice guy... been watchin your posts... nice of you to be teaching beginners w/ a clear & easy music lenguaje...greetings from Cancun Mexico.
@MarioRulz58 im assuming your one of those guys who got cheated on by their girlfriends now thinks that most girls are whores
as yourself this question: why would you play a romantic/relationship/love song for a slut? you can already bang a slut without doing anything romantic (im guessing thats what happened with your girlfriend or wife)
so you would play this for a girl you already know i.e. a gf, wife, crush, ect. meaning this song would get you laid so again
@viNCeK13 yeah dude but its not that ive been cheated on (i have but thts not the reason why i think alot of girls are sluts) its that ive have put alot of effort into playing guitar and all tht effort put into just to get inside a girls pants isnt really worth it
i super love you marty! i mean.. not literaly.. its just that.. im new in guitar and you help me a lot with the songs i wanna learn. wwiiee. :-bd THUMBS UP!
