theres a third riff your missin man... its 6th string 3rd fret.. then open g then 1st string 3rd fret with a pull off and end on that second chord used in the "slide deal...
dude this was sweet. i also just learned this 5 in ago but i can play it about half as fast as you and couldnt sing along if my life depended on it haha
this is the first cover of any iron and wine songs i've ever dared to listen to because i didn't want to waste my time to be disappointed...but you did an amazing job. seriously, i hope you give yourself more credit these days :)
Wow...That was absolutely amazing!!! Seriously, great job! I'm watching your tutorial as well trying to teach myself how to do this. Have you ever tried Iron and Wine's "Naked as we came"? I'd love to see you do that one if you could.
every single person says it only takes them like 5-10 min to master a cover. you dont have to make yourself sound ridiculously impressive just play the cover you learned. haha, by the way nice cover man. good job
Great job man. I know this might not mean a bunch, but I hope eventually that I'll be as good a player and singer as yourself. Great song, great cover.
@kell5969 this song is a cake walk compared to a few others he plays.... I know about 8 iron & wine songs... my fav band. wait till you get into some crazy strum patterns mixed with hammer ons and pull offs... try to sing over that shit... thats hard. haha Although, when it all comes together it sounds AWESOME and you'd never dream you'd have it in you to play something so difficult.
God damn this was amazing. One of the best covers I have ever heard. Just don't beat yourself up so much at the beginning. you're even playing this well in a dorm for Christ's sake.
@JacobCain86 exactly. no need to make excuses before the vid even starts! that shows a serious lack of confidence. don't automatically think people will hate on you. yeah, it's youtube, but if you're gonna put yourself out there, do it with confidence man! otherwise, good work.
Actually this song is really easy. Its one 5 second riff played over and over. if it takes you more than five minutes you suck at guitar so quit your bitching.
@Dunawan lol. he did a really good job. he did way better than just learning it 5 mins ago. you do know this post was over a year ago? you should also know i have explained this numerous times in the comments. you should also know your a dumb ass.
freaking amazing. love this song. it helps that you're completely gorgeous of course...not to say your musical ability wouldn't be just as great if your weren't gorgeous haha. totally haunting song by iron and wine...great cover.
when he said its hard to sing over, ill go ahead and back that up. its really hard to sing over. props man you did well. and your voice sounded great! props for sure man!
this is an amazing cover, you did the best you could do with a cover but i just dont think an acoustic of this song can top off the original, with the percussion and backround vocals
I agree with buttercup, you sounded so insecure and nervous when you were giving the little bio and then it was amazing!! Your voice had that same characteristic of Samuel Beam's, that like dry mistiness kind of thing. I can't describe it, but kudos!! :)
wpw youre reall great at this song. i listened to a bunch of covers for this song and they all suck. you di reslly good and im sorry anout your fingers:(
wow, I wasn't expecting to actually find someone who could do a decent cover of this amazing song...you proved me wrong and did the song good justice. nice job :)
It's HELL hard to do, you made it look easy, you fit in the words perfectly, in tune, everything, perfect, perfection, great, fantastic, awesome, sic, mad, cool, great, mega, superb, nice, good, anti-bad, beautiful, yummy, delicious, IM JEALOUS haha.
Dude, great friggin job! I am trying to learn this one and it is tough to stay on track with the vocals and singing. You did and awesome job, keep it up!
That was really good. I thought it was gonna sound like all of the other jokers that try but i was impressed. Don't quit playing its hard to find good guitarists that are willing to sing too.
LOVE this! :)
