  • nice vid, ill be using this one to learn the song :)

  • @dandansade hahahaha you made my day! :P

  • @kipppy69 i know right? bosieXD

  • ur fingers are in the wron g place, dont judge yourself, bc that makes u play worse (not saying ur bad ur awesome bro!! ) keep kickin ass

  • wtf??????

    if thats a guitar lesson than music should be outlawd....

    as far away from original as possible

  • Haha Mrguitarhelper can't read.

  • Man, that's illegal!

  • you are playing at the chorus D - Am - E, it is D - A- E

  • the song is in standard tuning not half a step down with no capo.I dont know where you got your tabs from but its all wrong

  • Bro, not to be an over-achiever or anything, but this is all wrong. There is no capo. My guess would be that your tuned a step down. Your strum pattern is correct but sloppy. Your strings sound twangy and muted. Also slightly out of tune. The guitar your playing sounds like a mistreated Ovation Acoustic, or a cheap knock-off of one. I know this because I own one. Dude, congratulations, you've just slaughtered my favorite band's song.
