  • its in the right key, hes just not using a capo.

  • Hey dick heads the guy is good leave him alone, I'm sure he's better than all of you who are leaving the rude comments

  • haha norway rocks xD

  • hahahah

  • @Tapiola2007 Haha, this cover is OK , I say, I mean it's not horrible, but he is playing in the key. He's playing an E chord with no capo. D + 2 capo = E

  • A really nice way of embellishing this tune as an acoustic solo is to drop D and then capo2. This gives more dimension to carry the tune using the bass with a 2 finger strum. Play the G shape as55xx33 Em as 333xxx A as 7x765x. The main rift has been covered nicely in other videos

  • The "correct" chords--those played by the Beatles when they recorded it are E and E7sus4, not E and G/D/A/E over e.g. "she once had me." This is a reharmonizing, an interesting one, as the melody line follows the notes D, A, C#, and B on those notes. The chords G/D/A/E do each contain the melody note as they're played. It is not what the Beatles played, and no one needs a new hearing aid. But reharmonization is valid creative reinterpretation. (And the Beatles didn't capo, they played it open.)

  • @hardings930 this has the potential to be perfect, may i ask do you own a capo?

    if so put it on the second fret and play around the "D" chord :)

  • @thestianblogg ahahaha, apparently we all are the same :P

  • its his own cover, his own version, how HE sees the music. Surely it not being exactly the same as the original is a good thing? if we were all the same what kind of world would this be?
