  • What is that chord that is arpeggiated over the words "Named him after a man of the cloth... Called him Amos..." which is at the end of the choruses? Is it a D7 with a 9? I have the other chords down-- but not sure what that one is. You guys have nailed this song! Great job! Jerry Reed was one of a kind-- missed...

  • @iritethesongs It's a D7sus4, but I had to look it up ;). It's basically a D7 with a G (3rd fret) on the 1st e string. He also does a little hammer-on on the 3rd string (from G to A) to kick it off, and then a bounce with his thumb from the open 5th and 4th strings (A to D). Have fun!

  • My uncle plays that song better than these two!

  • @80selby Is your uncle Jerry Reed? :)

  • Great job guys - what chords are you playing?

  • @BVB09Fanatic The song is in A7. Verses include B7 and D7. Chorus has E7, D7, and A7, transitioning through C to D7 at the end.  A lot of 7ths. :)

  • Excellent, guys! Screaming kids and all. This is reality at it's finest.

  • Great stuff! I wish I could pick like that

  • best cover i have ever seen on youtube. hands down

  • awesome ...and the end i understand

  • I would love it show a slower...closeup...version of the introduction.  You seem to move your fingers a LOT less than most other people I've seen play that lead !!!!!

    GREAT JOB !!!

  • I love the ending! The baby raisin' hell fits in perfectly. Good job guys.

  • Hahaha the moment the baby is crying like a baby and they both look! It's funny!

  • I wish I could play this song like you guys.

  • Thanks a lot-- yes, there's definitely a G that he hits in that chord. I've heard that same chord in an early Beatles song. Thanks also for the hammer on tip. I will give it a try.

    It's hard to find people who actually know the intricacies of the songs they perform on youtube, You are an awesome exception-- you nailed this song are are one heck of a player! Happy Holidays!!!
