How to play that Pete Droge song from the toyota commercial

This is a brief instruction on how to play "Going Whichever way the wind blows" by Pete Droge. I slightly simplified the fingering to make it easier to see on video but all the basics are there including the alternative guitar tuning. If you have questions or need help with parts of the song not included here, feel free to send me a message.

its rare that I post much like this, but I had to stop and leave my thanks and some positive feedback. Someone else mentioned your a great teacher, and I have to agree. Well done indeed.

Thanks a lot. I appreciate it. I'm going to try and do some other tutorials but I've been pretty crazy since my wife and I recently had our first child. If anyone has any suggestions for songs please let me know. :-)

As this is one of my bros's favorite songs, who is now passed at age 24, I appreciate this tutorial. I will play this for my family some time soon.

You are an amazing teacher! I am just beginning the guitar and love Pete Droge. Because of your teaching I can at least come close as a beginner! Could you tab the song 'Under the Waves'? I have been looking all over the net for it and can't find that song to play. That is the one I really want to learn. Thank you so much! And Jack is so cute!

A big congrats to you and the mrs. on your first child. That's gotta be amazing, and a source of plenty of new songwriting inspiration.

Since you mentioned the Toyota tie-in with this song... how about Nick Drake?

Right after VW featured Pink Moon in a commercial, I researched his stuff. One of my prized collections now.

In particular, Which Will is one of my favs.

Have a listen, and enjoy the night.

Your tutorial is wonderful-a great explanation of a great song. Thanks! And congratulations on your first child.

You mention suggestions for other songs--how about Droge's "If You Don't Love Me I'll Kill Myself." The recurring riff in that song is an incredible hook.

Anyway, Thanks my friend!
