[dcvalentine1782]

Thank you for shredding and not sucking or talking the whole time. This is one of the best videos out there for this song .Is that an old yamaha?

[lukessummerguitar]

@dcvalentine1782

Actually it is an old Hohner Guitar.

It isn't very good as instruments go, but it has a nice action and has a relatively pleasing sound for chord work.

[davezz5]

what about the other chords

[dahornor]

Where can I get that tab you have on photobucket? :-)

[MarkusGitarre]

cold iron bounds! great sound!

[cptJAKEBAW]

What chord is that you play at the end?

/this is incredible.

[lukessummerguitar]

@cptJAKEBAW

There is a link to the tab on Photobucket in the "Show More" section.

@lien0569

I may have had my Guitar tuned down semitone from standard concert pitch on the day I did this ( or maybe just slightly sharp/flat).

I often do that on the Guitar ( both electric and Acoustic) as it helps with string bending, and reduces tension on a heavy set of strings.

I play the six strings at the end of the video for this very reason, try tuning to one of those with the Capo on the 3rd fret, then take it off, and tune the rest of the strings to that one.

[lien0569]

YESSSS!!! ive been looking for this verssion for ages

[eyewideopenmedia1]

serious though lets collab we can find us a banjo player and who knows maybe one of those dobro players might like to jump in.

[eyewideopenmedia1]

Oh please please can we do a collab on this? I love this song, I love bluegrass.

[gattoselvatic]

good job man!

[ljped]

Interesting to see how this is played - nicely done!

[ncn8ochaser]

@lukessummerguitar I could've sworn I've heard Dan play it in Drop-D at least once, but I've almost always heard it in DADGAD, otherwise. Personally, it sounds great either way you play it, but DADGAD has a certain "tone" that I really appreciate.

Either way, you've done a beautiful job recreating the sound of the original. I'd play with ya any day!

[AndreasHaugen]

give us the whole song?...

[aapjebanaan13]

Nice one dude!

This is DADGAD but Dan tyminski playes the song in drop D!

[aapjebanaan13]

@a46474647 Just drop D!!

[Emanuelsson93]

Amen.

[DamianNixon]

Hello Lee. Been wondrin if this was open or dropped D for ages. Thanks m'man. D.

[overdrivek]

dead on intro.. helped me a lot .. appreciate it.. i tried the vocals on guitar.. let me know what ya guys think. thanks

[trygggg]

well done!

[tonyiannetta]

Fantastic tutorial, clear & concise with TAB. well done.

[a46474647]

Does Dan play DADGAD or just dropped-D? Anyone know?

[ncn8ochaser]

@a46474647 Drop D ;)

[rugshort]

Any more to this Lee? Jason

[massiveguitar123]

[SolitudeInChains]

[wordofadvice1]

Wow this is so good! God Bless You and thanks for the send.

[RADARpb]

AWESOME!!!

[dmcadik]

this is dead on! please NEVER remove this video.

[ForDavidB]

Great sound and feel. This appears to be more natural for me to play it this way.

[bigbeninjax]

Woooooooo-wee. Boy, that was a miiiighty fine a-pickin'. I'll tell you what, you come on in here and sign these papers here and I'm a gonna you ten dollars.

[Fearyourgovernment]

it would be real nice if somebody would just explain how to play this song, everyone on here thinks everybody can just watch you play it slow and start jammin along, yeah right

[nagileon]

It is DADGAD.

Big apologies to the author of this movie.

[nagileon]

This is CADGAD not DADGAD allthough all the tutorials say its DADGAD.

I don't understand why people are doing that ?

POWER TRIP ?

[NightingaleHMP]

Brilliant..!! I kept on expecting you to burst into song too! Thanks for that I play guitar and banjo so I will copy your chords and style. How about considering doing the song as well some time? Thank you from the UK .

[Paulmanorbier]

That's a superb sound - it has a richness to it

[DoubleAsian616]

Wow! That's awesome! What guitar is that? Is has a great classic sound!

[robbbb4]

I'm becoming more and more of a DADGAD fan.

GREAT video.

[Sawlon]

That was great Lee!

That will make a good intro for me on some of the dadgad Irish tunes I play with the band!

Thanks for the tab.

Dave

[rugshort]

Great stuff Lee. My school parents band are going through the O' brother Where Art Thou Songbook, so this is ace!

Jason

[Lubbie177]
