Tutorial- Free by The Zac Brown Band (fingerpicking)

I had a bunch of people ask me to post a tutorial showing how I play/fingerpick "Free" by The Zac Brown Band, so I made one. I'm not a teacher by anymeans, but I tried my best to explain how I play it. It's an awesome melody to learn so if you just bare with me for about ten minutes I think it will definitely be worth it in the end.

**I think it would be great if ya'll could post a vid of you playing this. I would love to see how many people have actually learned how to play "Free" from this video. Just send it to me as a personal message or as a video response to this video so everyone else can see and make them want to learn it too. That would be awesome!**

Here is the link to my cover of Free if you want to see how the words fit in with the fingerpicking:

Someone posted needing a finger picking tutorial on uwont.com in the music section the other day. you could make some money for these

[LightTheHidden]

this is a very very good tutorial...just a very hard song hahaha

[BirdOfJove]

Thanks a lot man, very comprehensible tutorial. I just listened to this song for the 1st time, & thought to myself I gotta learn it. Can't wait to get it down. I live in Australia, and Zac Brown always has a way of making me reminisce about back home & the "good ol' days."

That is awesome, loved it and worked out beautifully. Could you do one for Toes too? Trying to figure out the fingerpicking on there is working me hard. Thanks and keep posting!
