Yes that's the guitar part, I could never have broken it down to explain it like that...

Thanks so much GH, as a beginner, your lessons are invaluable. Nobody does YouTube lessons better...Nobody!

@andreas2901 I have the same problem you do. He teaches one way but plays it a little different. I am a beginner too. I made a comment to Goldhat , but he did not reply. At least you were able to figure out how he is playing and posted on youtube. May be, I can follow your lead to play this song as you were able to figure it out. My appreciation to you for taking the time to figure this song out. Thanks!

Anyway, think i've successfully tabbed both of your versions now. Sorry for the spamming and thanks a lot for your work Goldhat :)

[andreas2901]

There seem to be some differences from what you are telling us to play in the video and what you are actually playing. So i cant really compare myself to your version. Is this intended to be ? That you are teaching it one way but personally playing it in a different way ? im just curious, id still consider me as a beginner and so im looking for videos i can practise with and compare to. But if this video consists 2 versions i should probably skip this although it sounds really nice.

Youre telling us the first G is with a little sus but then youre playing it as a reglar G-major. Next thing is the little run. You are telling us to play C-major squeeze 5/1 then 4/1. Then a-string 2nd fret and b-string 3rd fret and go over to a-min7 but youre playing a-string 2nd fret and b-string 3rd fret, d-string open and then you move to a-min7. The Gs seems to vary too. Im just confused now cause i cant compare my progression with the song with your actually played version.

Hi Goldhat3, first of all i love your videos. But i noticed something and it would be cool if you could confirm that if im right or corerct me if im wrong. The first F (3:32) you are playing 6/2-4-1-6-2-4-3 but then you continue playing it 6/2-3-4-1-6-2-4-3 (4:17)

I noticed 1 maybe 2 more little variations so i wondered if you suggest to play it the same way cause it definitely sounds nice.
