Anyways, as always, I hope you've learned something! Let me know if there's anything I could have done better/added/removed. I love feedback, and you folks are the ones watching, so I'd best take your advice. Further more, let me know if your having trouble with any part in particular. I would love to help you dial it in.

Also, let me know if you have any requests for future tutorials! This video again was a request, so why not give it a shot? I'd love to teach it as much as you'd like to learn it.

Thanks for watching, and good luck playing!

Hi, can you do "What Makes A Man" at some point?

[SubtleAcoustics]

@sterlingmcleod9 At some point maybe! Relative soon? Probably not. It's a tough finger picking one... I suggest just using the chords and coming up with a simple strum pattern to start. Listening to the track while playing over it, it really helps!

you're awesome<3 

[SubtleAcoustics]

@ellelorena Coulda swore it was you that was awesome... thanks for watching!

This video is super helpful and was really easy to learn. I loved how you put the chords, chord fingerings and strum pattern in the description. Also extremely helpful. If you put a vocal recording or sang with it when you went through the whole song, that would be awesome. Thank you! :)

[SubtleAcoustics]

@loveislouder12 Thanks a bunch for the kind words. That could be integrated for next time perhaps... Thanks for the input!

@Allyourbass2212 Body In A Box didn't take you long to master eh? Any suggestions for future videos would be greatly appreciated! Keep tuned.

I started this today and have learned pretty quickly, still have more practice to go but these videos are incredibly helpful. Keep this up, you're the best for this, especially since Dallas Green is my inspiration.

@TheSammy019 The chord fingerings are in the description, as well as in the pdf I've posted. Seek and ye shall find. Merry Christmas, and thanks for watching.
