You could play the B chord without muting the E string just by strumming starting at the A string. Or in other words just try your best not to hit it, I found after playing guitar for awhile that don't mute strings too often it's more so a technique of avoiding. Although as long as the audience doesn't notice who cares.:P
@AzraTheMissileHeart No it's not, put your 1st finger right behind the 5th fret if your having trouble barring the chord, and curve your 3rd and 4th finger to keep them from muting the rest of the strings, when all fingers are in place, press down really hard and press against your thumb. Hope I helped!
@bobbyrootz it's not "anti military" per say, but is just saying there is more behind the medals and honor... And sometimes they don't do the best things during a war
I thank you so much, I'm beginner in guitar and I'm trying to learn my first music with this video. But the G#M is so hard! But I will practice everyday.
i dont understand the intro, when he tells us to take our third finger off of A chord, which would be the B string. then he tell us to pluck open A string then bounce between the B and E string.. so whats the point of holding this Chord if im not using the strings?
Why do you make the Asus2 during the intro? You pluck the a, e, and b string all open so there is no use of making the chord. Just wondering. But great video! It helped a lot. Good work!
is you guitar toned different because my acoustic is tuned but mine doesn't sound just like yours does, it sounds a lil different and i know im playing it right is it my strings do i neeed new ones when often do we need to buy new ones!!! plz comment back
@civcity2 its just standard tuning - EADGBe, if yours sounds different when its in that tuning its not the tuning it will be the guitar, not all guitars sound identical
sometimes people just join the army to make their country a safer place to live in and a country that would dissuade others from attacking it. Through this song, the soldier in Afghanistan must hope that what he is doing out there is of some use.
I really want to learn this song, but paying attention to the lyrics throws me off. It feels like it doesn't really respect the soldiers, but calling them murderers. I don't know. Soldiers can't even trust the white flag because you can hold a white flag all the way up to them and then detonate yourself taking them with ya.
@pen24 Right, but some parts of the songs aren't like that, ''I'll carry this flag, to the grave if I must, it's a flag that I love it's a flag that I trust.''
He's also talking about the white flag at the end. But the part where they arrest a guy really gets to me. My bros squad arrested someone because the guy ran up to a bradly, threw a grenade in, and killed everyone inside, they didn't pee on his hands for doing that btw.. Rise Against is pretty one sided, but at LEAST it's a more generous anti-war song.
@pen24 Yeah they get alot of those people. Either the ones that run up and bomb them self and everyone, or the one's that risk their life to chuck the grenade and get shot. I have a lot of my relatives that has died in war and my cousin who came back and died because of cancer. A couple months after that happened my brother said he wants to join the Marines and my grandma and mom said no because they don't want to loose him. He thinks that he will get big money and come back alive everytime but.
@IIoWoII that guy in afghanistan which is me who asked for this song knows perfectly well its an anti-war song..how can some one be "anti-war" if they have never been? ive seen first hand that why i relate to the song.
Thank you for posting this video I've had this song stuck in my head for awhile and I wanted to figure out how to play it. Itd be awesome if you could post a video on how to play "Hey There Delilah" by The Plain White T's. Ive been having trouble trying to learn that song. Thanks again!
Hey, im new to guitar and all and this is an awesome song so im trying to learn it. just wondering, whats the point of the 2/3 A chord in the beginning?
wow man.i dont know what to say.but thanks when i asked if you could do a tutorial on this i didnt think it would happen this fast.you dont know how long i have been trying to learn this song.ive been over here (afghanistan) for a while and actually watching ur videos and learning more everyday.so hopefully ill have this tune mastered and ill record it and post it up with a huge shout out and thank you to NAILGUITAR you rock man.thanks you raised my spirits just a little bit higher
@theAZNsensati0n Hey mate, your story really captured my attention and I thought it was a great and fitting song (+ a nice easy one to teach.) Look forward to seeing you cover and Nailguitar shout out. A~
@DennisCoban Its the clash of the strumming rhythm against the vocal rhythm that is the toughest bit to overcome... my biggest tip is remove the strumming pattern, just strum each chord once but still keep the timing. Find songs that are REALLY simple, as in only a few chords and a lot of space between words (like knocking on heavens door). This give you time to think! Check out my lessons on NailGuitarSkills channel called 'sing and play guitar' for more tips! A~
