I think the last chord [of the verse] is played on the first beat of the bar. It's not syncopated like the other chords. But other than that, great lesson, thank you!
damn im so glad you did the lesson for this song, been looking for new songs to play and you have been the easy one to to learn on, thank you and keep up the good work, there is another song i have been looking for three days grace lost in you, if you could do the lesson on this song that would be awesome please!! thanks man
You put this song over really well. First time I've seen one of your videos. Thanks for explaining it so well.. I don't understand how anyone could dislike this video, they must just be a bit simple..
This is the best instructional video I've seen for this song. Thank you very much. Your explanation involving eighth notes was especially helpful. 12345, then 678, then 1, 2345678. Helped me a lot.
Lol Thanks, I'm sooo playing this for my fiance ^__^ I find it hilarious how in the bridge you were singing and saying the chords at the same time "LIght up, light, as if you "G" the chord"??? Even if you cannot A minor my voice, I'll be right beside you F chord. THANKS!
@yoyorickboy17 He plays em with a plecter. If you are askin how to hold the E-string down with ur thumb. Stretch it so far you ca hold it with your thumb backside :)
@TheZnorro i using also a plecter/plectrum/pick (what you want). i learned already strumming, but do you have tricks for up-strumming? that isn't quit working when i do it :)
yeh mate ur a fuckin legend!!!! fantastic tutorial could'nt have made it easier for me!! im just startin out andthe videos u make are really clear. Thanks a lot! sunil
I know you're sick of song requests -- couldn't get your forum to work right -- but I feel I've got the ultimate song for you to cover: the soulful "The Wind" by Cat Stevens (saw where you like Cat). Apologies ... for my being another dullard. And, again, you do great work as a teacher.
Oh yeah, I forgot. Initially, I searched your site and various channels just knowing instinctively (wrongly, I might add) that you'd have a video lesson and TAB for "The Wind."
It was because of you that now I know this song. I was looking for songs in your website and I found one of snow patrol (this one) and as I'm a huge fan of snow patrol I listened the song and I loved!
great lesson justin and I never thought you could sing that well very nice. PEOPLE send him a donation for all the work he does for us. I have well worth it !!
I've tried learning to play that so many different ways and just couldn't get it right, thinking my fingers aren't long enough. But now I can actually play it. =]
Nice!
