Hope you enjoy learning it as much as I did, what a great tune.

  • you play it so clean ..and the lesson was so easy.. thank you very much gentleman..i guess i am the 1st one in Morocco to play it...

  • ALL LESSONS SHOULD BE LIKE THIS ONE. THANKS SO MUCH .

  • Brilliantly done mate! I love the singing chords touch. Truly one of the best lessons I have seen.

    I appreciate you tubing it for us.

  • love your tutorial, your voice is great and awesome when your switching between your accent and your singing. great lyrics when your doing the chords while singing, and mat i reccomend fire and rain for one of your james taylor tutorials?

  • Amazing lesson..Thanks in deed mate

  • Thank you! i gotta say, it helps a lot when you sing the chord names while playing!

  • Is it just an optical illusion or is he not playing the 5th string on the 2nd fret when he plays his open G major chord (e.g. look at roughly 4:47 to 5:20)? If I'm right about that, does that mean that he is only strumming the 4th through 1st strings on that G chord or does he mute the 5th string with his index finger?
