[nslapshot99]

i want to learn this song but im a beginner and i dont no the cords

[asadchaudhry2006]

I would love to watch and learn from all of your videos, but on a lot of them the audio track is off which makes it really hard to learn. If you could re upload them or anything to fix this problem that would be great!

[Mindwalker10]

Enjoyed the video, but I do want to agree with some others that the soundtrack is off/

[MyYellowCurtains]

nice taylor! : D

[greenyoshi47]

im new at guitar

wats the easiest song to learn..?

plz help

[thepinkfloydsound73]

dont get ahead of yourself its good to be anxious when you first start off but you need to start with simple strumming songs. yopu will build the strength in your fingers and your chord transitions will beome smooher and then you can go on and learn whatever you want. listen to some good acoustic songs and practice all day once they are crisp and smoothe you will notice that you are figuring out songs youve heard b4. get good at the basics and the hard stuf comes almost naturaly

[xXFURMOXx]

I've only just started learning guitar and the easiest song I found I could play was Songbird by Oasis, it's literally two chords the whole way through.

[guitarriffoftheweek]

What a great lesson!!!

[mangosandwatermelon]

is there a certain tuning for this cause when i strum up wards it sounds kinda awekward a not rite

[fgtm]

Make sure to drape your first finger over strings not fretted so they are muted.

will this work with all songs?? (using power chords)

or just a select few?

[fgtm]

Yes. Power Chords work with all songs because they are neither major nor minor. So, when the song chord progression goes: C, Am, F, G you can just play a C power chord, A power chord, etc... Great way to change the feel of a song! NOTE: whatever note your first finger is on names the power chord.

Okay, so the video is excellent and is really helping... but either the video or my laptop has a glitch at the :53 second mark and stops around the one minute mark... maybe it's my computer, but it's frustrating me, lol.

[fgtm]

Video has always played all the way through for me. Maybe it was Youtube that day or something on your end. Does it play now? I would expect others to post comments if the issue was global. Anyone else?

[Andyyyy101]

Im havin a few problems with audio aswell dude,

Its like 3 secodns faster than the visual

[worldofmig]

@fgtm yes, my video does the same, I tried to reload it, and it still did it, it don´t used to do that, but now it did :S

[jediknight5588]

can u send all 3 parts of the lesson for this song by mail?

[oocchocolateeoo]

iDK i think i might have to go into guitar classes before i try to even play anything. i tought myyself how to play about 4 songs on the guitar but i cant figure out how to play my fav ones. i used to play the piano tho. but i quit after about 5 years :'[

[doggystyle82]

lol thanks a lot my gf got totally happy when I played her that song but thanks to you anyway 5 stars

[ccavute]

i like you....lol

[VinnieJonesIsALegend]

nice ireland shirt :)

[lorant93]

just one question: when you're holding a power chord you push down only one string with your index finger?

[fgtm]

Correct!

[dieselpause]

[fgtm]

Awesome glad you liked it...Glad it helped out. Good luck with your playing.

[tapeisgood]

[fgtm]

Well not bald, but buzzed yes. I was pissed off at the hair that day and shaved it of. Was a nice change for awhile. I'm glad though you got a lot out of the video lesson! haha. J/K.
