  • If you listen to the original studio recording, I believe Dan played it Capo 1. I don't because my vocal range is not as high as Dan's so even a half step lower helps. Thanks for the question and thanks for listening!

  • Standard tuning.

  • Thank you for all the positive responses. I will be posting another video regarding the verse and the chorus very soon. Stay tuned! Thanks, Scott

  • I was drawn to the video when I saw that you have the EXACT same guitar as me! Great job on the instruction video, we play it the exact same way. Amazing. Good job as well on the cover video, you have a voice just like Fogelberg's. I used to play it capo 1 like Fogelberg, but my voice will no longer allow me to do that either! Just for kicks, check out the cover that my son and I did together. We had fun with it. Hope you keep making videos!

  • Beautiful instructive video on one of the world's most beautiful pieces of music. Thank you very much for your time and effort! Just awesome!

  • Thank you very much for the lesson!

  • Scott, your chords and your finger-picking sounds just like the way Dan Fogelberg played and recorded it. It would be really wonderful if you can get all of this transcribed into a tablature format...intro, verses, and solo altogether. It would be a great accomplishment on your part.

  • All the idiots that say he played it with a capo, he didnt.....Look at the live videos.

  • @chareebuendia mao lagi bay!!

  • HEY SUPER THANK YOU DUDE ESPECIALLY ON THE FIRST CHORD :)

  • Dan played it in 2nd fret with capo.. it's because he's voice is tuned in 2nd fret.. ^^

  • What a great lesson by a generous and talented teacher! Thank youl
