just discovered this song and love it so much! your playing sounds exactly like the song. i'm trying to learn fingerpicking on the guitar for the first time (with this song!) would you be willing to share with me the picking pattern for the first part? i wish i could see your fingers on the guitar!! :)
@lovina9 Hi Lovina, it's difficult to explain how to play it. It's a combination of strumming and picking which isn't that easy to learn for a beginner. There are some songs with a similar picking, for example Blackbird by The Beatles, Jenny Wren by Paul McCartney and - where I learned it from - "I will follow you into the dark" by Death Cab. There is a official video of this song where you can see the guitar pretty good. Sorry, that I can't help you better.
love this song so much u did an amazing job i love ron sexsmith i have seen him a lot of times in concert and what i love about him is how he sounds the same in concert as on his cd's
nice job:) ya Ron Sexsmith is an incredible writer, love his voice too.. i own all his cd'd seen two of his concerts, will see another in a month or two..
great song, I've never heard of Ron Sexsmith. I've been having problems with audio too, but I noticed that a couple of videos I had switched to private because of the bad audio are now playing fine. ??
yah, I tried uploading one this morning and had the audio problems again ! It seems the ones I am having problems with has to do with a particular editing program I am using, not sure. I'll check out that Ron Sexsmith. thank you.

Great cover! I must have listend to your version 20 times over the last couple of years. I prefer it to the original that has gone up recently.

Strange ... Seems as if YouTube changed something with the encoding so that the volume jumps. Anyway, I think I got it fixed here in some degree.
Ron Sexsmith has a lot of great songs, give him a listen sometime!
