Hi, very cool as always. Do you know if Paul Simon wrote this on piano like the song or on acoustic guitar like he usually does? Thanks for the great lessons. Rush21121322

Cool question, Wikopedia just told me about a studio musician named Larry Knechtel who played the classic track.. Thats interesting about Paul Simon.

Thanks for the comment.

Oh wow. That is seriously such a great song. I've been wanting to learn it for ages. I saw its sheet music and thought I could never learn it. But your tutorial made it really easy. Keep up the great work. Oh... and I have a request. Nightswimming by REM. I'm sure you could make a tutorial for that, no problem:)

@MikesMusic123 Do you think paul was wearing his toupee when he wrote this?

@rush21121322 - Paul wrote the song on guitar (in the key of G) with the intention of having Art sing it. In the studio, arranger Jimmy Freeman transposed the song to E-flat (Art's preferred key) and called the chords out to Larry Knechtel who created and played the piano part. Freeman & Knechtel later won Grammy awards for their work on this song.
