This is a tutorial on how to play the song "Come Pick Me Up" by Ryan Adams off of the Heartbreaker record. In this lesson we'll be discussing some of the techniques used (such as the chords, hammer-ons, pull-offs, timing, etc...) as well as the layout of the song.

Just follow along and learn how to play a great song off of a great album. The second half of the video is a full run-through of the song as heard on the album, so that you can play along with me to further cement its progression in your head.

Thanks so much for watching and send me some VIDEO RESPONSES of you playing the guitar, hamonica, singing, whatever! I want to hear from you!

  • Awesome video once again. Great choice of song to do a lesson on. Keep up the Ryan Adams and feel free to throw some Springsteen in the mix haha, another great musician who's impossible to find good videos or sheet music on.

  • Shayne, Thanks for posting this lesson! By far the best tutorial I've seen for this song! As someone who is trying very hard to learn how to play, I appreciate the way you've broken this song down step by step. I don't know if you take request or not however if you do, I'd love to see a lesson on Ryan Adam's "Dirty Rain". Thanks again!

  • Thanks man you have a great teaching ability. straight forward and concise. I've got it flowing after two views. Clearly your a man of taste - teaching this song backed up by the ultimate Floyd Poster on your wall. Cheers mate.

  • this is awesome but WHAT IS THE STRUMMING PATTERN?! thankssss!

  • Excellent video - one of my favourite songs! Wish I had my guitar with me!!!! Without one for 3months!!!! :-o

  • Hey Shane. Awesome song. Great tute. Really easy to understand for a self taught player like myself. Thanks for your help. Cheers from Australia! Dan. ...ps, check out my original tunes on my channel :)

  • great work man! This helped me alot! greetz from Belgium

  • Great work man...i have a cheap nylon string guitar but it does the trick..would it be worth my while getting it restrung with steel strings,what ya think...thanx!

  • Well done, I'll be keeping an eye open for more Ryan Adams lessons. Thanks from London.

  • good stuff man. keep them coming

  • great tutorial but slow it down just a wee bit and you dont have to hit the hammer on's on every single C. listen to the album version he lets a lot of them ring out. Thanks though!
