Well this is me playing johnny cash's version of hurt, he has a low voice which makes it quite easy to sing, yay! :D

Edit:

Quite a few people have asked about the chords/tabs. For those of you who don't know about ultimate-guitar.com a really good tab can be found here:

why are you hiding your face? it deserves to be seen.

@herro665 Some videos require my guitar to be closer to the microphone otherwise my voice overpowers the guitar. If I were to move the camera back it would just be too quiet :) Don't worry I don't have a fear of showing my face, I do appear in full view in some of my other videos :P

too fast ... and out of tune

[mortykid1989]

@nattfodd94 I've done a better version since, this was put up not long after I started learning guitar. Feel free to check it out, it's slower and much has much better tuning xD

[TucoZizou]

your guitar is out of tune

[mortykid1989]

@TucoZizou I know ;) Check my later version for a better video.

pretty good, but you are rushing threw the song, try to play it slower.

but i think you did a pretty good job!

[Nurfthug]

can you post a vid on how you did the chorus part?

@tropiikalkis5 I strum with with my index finger when there's a picking bit involved as well, kind of lead with the nail on the way down and the skin bit I suppose on the up. Pretty much as if I had a pick but more finger/There isn't any one rule to these thing's I don't think, just what ever you end up finding the nicest or easiest. I find it a litttle awkward to do the thumb way. Keep trying thing's and you'll find your own technique sooner hopefully rather than later. Best of luck.
