@fly12f nope. He uses his thumb when demonstrating....but just holds his index finger like you were t hold a pick>>just using the nail and finger a bit of the index finger as the pick.
the chords are Amaj7- B-7 - E7 for those who know the names of chords. It's good for people to know what they're playing so they can use them in different contexts and recognize common progessions, like this one. It's basically a ii-V-I in they of A looped over and over. The last part is a iii-vi-ii-V.
Man i knew every beautiful chord u played n got the whole song down in under 30 haha thank you 4 teaching it but most of all thank you for the beautiful music u play David
thanxs for sharing ur Chords , i wrote lyrics 2 a song i made and i used ur Chords, it came out grate, my girl loved it. my song not so original now. lol
DAVID CAN YOU DO A VIDEO FOR OVER THE RAINBOW? CAUSE I LIKE THAT JAZZY FAST PACED ONE YOU PLAYED but i cant find it anywhere :[ so im guessing you made it up in a way you dont have to but it would be nice :]
david you're the MAN thanks bro you're music is awesome screw the haters..if their talkin good or talking shit, atleast their talkin and your name is gettin out
On a guitar, the strings are labelled backwards, starting on high e, it's 1 e 2 b 3 g 4 d 5 a 6 e, Just like on tabs, all of the strings are upside down. :) Hope that helps.
Thanks for the chords. You have a talent. Just thought i'd add that the song was performed with the guitar tuned half a step down in the original vid.
i trying to learn guitar and this is loads more helpful than tabs. do you have any suggestions on learning chords so i don't have to keep learning these songs one by one?
the vocals on ur songs are awesome. i think youre one of the better of examples of undiscovered talent. keep it up. cheers.
whats wrong with your guitar? David. it sounds too...er, how may i say about it...it's too "clean",too" light"...I believe a more "heavy" tune will fit your voice better.
Maybe if I leave a comment here, you'll get to read it, because the original video has 1000's of comments now! But I've certainly enjoyed watching all your videos, and think what you've done is great!
He does sound a bit unprofessional when teaching but why does it matter? You can point it out, but can you write or sing better music? I have seen musical geniuses who can't play a thing, it's all in their heads.
and he calls himself a musician,funny.but i have to agree its a catchy song and u have a nice voice,butc before u start learning someone how to play the chords,u should learn them first.exuse my crappy english.
Some people are just so intimidated at how wonderful David is. While other claim themselves as professionals in music, well i think we've got competition here! :) way to go david, you inspire us.
You have a decent voice and a definite talent for writing original songs. I think it would do you well to learn a little more music theory, especially when you are attempting to teach others your cords..To start with, strings are numbered from the high "E" (bottom string) up. All the cords you play actually have names. I'm envious of your nice voice..Good Luck David
I've seen the 2 videos;David's one & after abrinsfield video response and I think that the response(with a D#minor seems to be closer to the song!But with an AM7M,it seems to be nearly the same than the C#minor(wich is the real name of the very 1st chord that David plays).I think that the "rights" chords are,as victortolast12345 said:D#minor/Bm7 & E7/9!But what David did is a good idea to teach songs to the persons that want to learn to play!Good teaching!
wow. thanks man, this is much appreciated. we lesser skilled guys need a little guidance. i was trying to figure this song out earlier by watching your fingers in the video, but that didnt turn out well. can you teach us 'somewhere over the rainbow' next? i want to sing it for my girlfriend.
Hi, Im Fatima from Monterrey Mexico, I hear u sing this song nd i think that u have a beautiful voice, the song its so beauriful... ur so serious, smile in ur recs(videos). See ya!!
Um...I didn't understand this very well hahaha sorry, David <3

00:20 "mute the last note"
what does last note mean? the highest note of the chord?
00:34
"mute the second string"
but he points to the fifth string.
i think the convention is to refer to the high E string as the first string and the low E as the sixth string.
