[maverick10241]

[effan20]

[Davtitford]

Dude learn to play before posting tutorias this is totally wrong

[smallengines409]

little bit off

[TheXSiCkY]

learned this song about 2 years ago and completley forgot how to play it..came back to the tuturol today and brought back memories..ty

[udatrojans50]

U suck

[martinus1100]

''you migth wanna mute a little bit, cause he does that in hes song ehhh lynyrd whatever''

hahahaha

[dudebot3000]

you put your -spit- pointer finger her and-spit- your middle finger here

[680540]

The first song i learned 3 years ago when i started playing guitar.I remember hammer-ons and pull-offs were too difficult for me at the time :)

[PBJPOWELL]

you are doingthis wrong bro ive been playing guitar for 30 years and i know how to play sweet home alabama you are doing it wrong

[04woolley]

this one is so much easier than the others

[MajidAz29]

when you strum the chord do you strum every string as it is?

[frans688]

usfull ,,,nex time put the camera litle farther to see all the hand

[6669hippie]

lynrd whatever lol...

[TheKevve99]

then is easy :D

[DeathGiver360]

This is good, it is the fist song I learned and it was from this video, thanks so much!!

[ProjectSuperNinja]

Its a good video, but thats not how you play the song... You pluck at the beginning.. The strumming parts are accurate though, and thats what I needed help with anyway. You use the D Cadd9 and G chords at the beginning. Make the chords, and play around with it and see how you can make it sound. Its a simple song, if anybody needs help with it, reply to this comment and I'll be more than happy to give some more pointers

[yory65]

Thanks

[803Drake]

[bayi159357]

This is was easy to learn, but I wish there was more of it? It was really simple, which is good because I'm a complete beginner. This song was the first song I decided to learn to play, and it's a good way to learn it :)

[mrzdivaable]

and what kinda tuning do you need

[olifantgamer]

@mrzdivaable i believe it's just an acoustic steel string, and you don't need a special tuning, just the common one.

[mrzdivaable]

[GuitaristCovers]

I have made guitar lesson of this song, in easy to understand tab, so if you want to see it then click my profile :D

[codederay]

this would have been a decent video if he actualy knew how to play the intro. He obviusly needs to listen to the actual song so he can relize that what he is playing is no where near what it really sounds like.

[ascenciontospace]

any1 else notice that his guitar was out of tune?

[MrBattles1]

good lord this is terrible

[ausentedelirio]

jeez, how many comments here.. I just would like to know what kind of music is considerate this song... its folk? just that? how its called by americans? or to consider folk its a crime to experts because is too pop... tkx \o

It's wrong on the last note it's just an open G string and it's hammer on 5 then 4 then back off and back to 5 again take a look at guitarjamzdotcom or martyzsongs it's a lot easier that way

[thecko98]

I love the teddy bear in the back round 

[apaloli2]

HAHAHHAH you suck nooooooooooob ass bitchas

[tompetty1976]

@apaloli2

If you think he sucks, then you must think that you are better than him.

A REAL musician has respect for people who are still learning.

If you are really this arrogant in person you do not deserve to lay one finger on a guitar.

Being a musician is about respecting others.

Being a Rockstar is not sex & drugs; it is hard work, practice, passion, and a true heart for music.

In a band, a nice guy who is willing to learn & can sorta play is 10 times better than an asshole who can play

[ryaaL]

@tompetty1976 rly love this comment!

[tompetty1976]

@ryaaL Thanks. *blushes* :)

[guitarrocerdude1]

[TheGollum745]

WTF?



[kinghugh1]

What do you mean by hammer it?

[papaloca345]

@kinghugh1 you play a note and then hammer it with your finger without picking on it, hope it helps

[kinghugh1]

@papaloca345 Ohhh! I can do it now thanks sooo much thank you thank you thank ou (:::::

[sffc95]

@kinghugh1

If you play guitar hero, it's when you just tap the chord and don't need to strum because you've hit before another chord for example:

Strum while on the 1 square of the 1st chord, then without struming quickly tap the 2nd square.

Strum once to get 2 different sounds :D

[ScriptKitty1]

now where the hell did i set my pic....

[LYNYRDSKYNYRD1944]

Lynyrd Skynyrd is the name of the band the lead singers name is Ronnie VanZant, the lead guitarist his name is Allen Collins and ithe other lead guitarist name is Gary Rossington. They named the band after their gym teacher who gave them a hard time Because they had long hair. Ronnie and two other members of the band died in a plane crash in 1977. Then his brother took over as lead singer. Everyone thinks the dude singings name is Lynyrd Skynyrd.

[bayi159357]

@LYNYRDSKYNYRD1944 It's like Marilyn Manson and Evanescence, everyone always thinks that the lead singers are called that.

[rrisom]

[uuuukay]

[LYNYRDSKYNYRD1944]

@uuuukay Lynyrd Skynyrd is the name of the band the lead singers name is Ronnie VanZant, the lead guitarist his name is Allen Collins and ithe other lead guitarist name is Gary Rossington
