Hey, I just saw Conor Oberst and the Mystic Valley Band @ the Royal Oak music theater. Their performance of Milk Thistle made me decide that I had to make a HOW TO PLAY video tab for this song.

In my opinion, it is the best song on the record.
I explain all of the chords that I play in the video so it should be pretty easy to follow.

Enjoy.

P.S. Thank you for watching and subscribing. I just broke 1000 subscribers!

  • all you videos are really good, i want to play any song of his album but they are all too complex for me! but i just started so maybe soon. i love bright eyes and conor oberst but pretty much all their songs are tough. any bright eyes songs you would recommend for a beginer? great job though

  • true blue is really easy. i think that there are only 3 chords in the entire song.

    thanks for watching.

  • Thanks for posting this. This is my favorite tune on the record as well. I saw Conor in San Diego a couple weeks ago. He was so waisted that he could barely get through this song, missed a bunch of the notes. I hope he gets his shit together because if he keeps partying like that he won't be around much longer.

  • i talk to my friends who love conor about that as well. imagine if he died!? i think that he cut out all of the hard stuff that he used to do so that's a good thing.

  • im seeing them tomorrow too... i hope they play this song and lenders in the temple, it'd make the drive all worth it.

  • i checked out set lists from other shows on this tour and im quite sure that they played both of those songs.

  • Can you explain what strings you're fingerpicking? I can't see it too clearly. Thanks!

  • this video is excellent but im pretty musically stupid, if anyone could point me to a place that just describes the struming pattern i would be very grateful, thanks (Y)
