Thanks Thanks Thank you so much from Tamil Nadu in India. V have a Huge Fan Following for Simon and Garfunkel here particularly in the Universities. Covers of their Their Songs are Oft played. Now I am forty and on a low. So I try to go back to my better days in Engineering College. This Song was a Rage. I am also a Guitar player but a very Clumsy and Rudimentary Type. Thanks again

whats the b note?

[bamfer04]

WHen your playing a C chord b is the note right behind your indexfinger one fret. Because your capoed at the second fret it is technically a c# but the fret behind your index finger is what he is talking about.

[Stucnda60s]

As usual great lessons. Keep them coming! How about "April Come She Will"?

[gazmull]

thanks goldhat for that im from the uk ive been playing that song for years but i could never work out that bit with the f chord, keep up the good work, could you do American tune next

[goldhat3]

I had the same idea. I have American Tune on my to do list.

[routemaster123]

Hi I am a 30 year old guy and live in Dorset in the United Kingdom. I would just like to say a big thank you, as you have helped me very much with my Guitar playing. I just love the way you make it all so understandable. I was almost about to give up Guitar, Until you came along.Please keep Keep up the fantastic work.Take Care

[goldhat3]

Glad to hear it. You will always enjoy being able to play a little guitar.

[HarryKant]

Why play with a Capo ?

You could transpose your Progression by One note up instead.

I think the Chords are D, A6, Bm and G for the Start.

[2ifbyCsharp]

Hopefully 'gh3' will answer your question personally. But in 'C' with the capo the 'walk ups & downs', Maj7(th)s and Bb 'drop' are much easier for beginners.

Check out his 'Teardrops in Heaven'! Actually you need to check 'em all out!!!!

I glad to see he finally fed that lil' ol' git in earlier vids and it grew up! 8-)

[goldhat3]

That works too. I am showing how Paul Simon plays it.

[HarryKant]

Thanks and keep up the good work.

[mygad]

Excellent work there sir. First thing I saw was the new guitar, very nice and sounds great. Simon and Garfunkel seems so effortless when you sing and play it. Well done.

[bigdjindustriez]

Well it's about time you did a new video! Good lesson, never actually heard this song before, but it seems cool. Don't keep us waiting another half a month for more videos haha. Peace man

[rbesana]

You finally found a guitar that fills your lap! That's no slam, just an observation. Is that a birthday gift?
