This is a tutorial on how to play Face Down Acoustic. This is my first tutorial so it's not that great sorry.
It's a really simple song to play with only 4 chords: Em7, C2, G, D/F#
The strum pattern is DDU UDU (Down Down Up, Up Down Up,
The picking pattern is simple, it's played at the begging. It's played twice:
it's 5, 4, 3, 2, 3, 4, 2. Then changes on G to : 6, 4, 3, 2, 3, 4, 2. Then on D/F# it's 6, 4, 3, 2, 4, 3, 2, then a strum. That's the whole song :)
If you have any questions just comment.

  • It is actually supposed to be played where you don't move your third or fourth finger the entire song. You're supposed to play the D/F# with just your first finger in low E on second fret. All of the chords are supposed to sound similar with just a moving base note. I think it sounds really awkward if you change to the actual D/F#. Moving down a fret on high E just throws the whole feel of the chord progression off. And not to mention it's also a way easier transition by just keeping your third

  • @kylependley Thanks for the input, I'll have to try that. :)

  • that is not correct.... they tuned their guitars drop C.

  • @Elementare8888 In the normal version, with electric guitars yes that is true. But this is an ACOUSTIC version, as it's said in the description... so it can be in whatever tuning you'd like. But if you've ever seen them perform it live acoustically they play it in standard.

  • i'm guessing you're american because those are you'rer 4th and 5th fingers DUMBASS.

  • @peterf282 You are right, I am a total dumbass for using a different name for my fingers. Thanks for pointing that out :) have a nice day.

  • I am gonna throw it out there an say that nobody really gives a shit about the thumb thing and you all just wanted to reply cause you spent 5 minutes looking through the comments for my original post so I'm gonna propose a profound concept, stop spamming my inbox, nobody gives a shit anymore, and if you do, feel free not to tell me about it, I couldn't care less

  • Great grammar there with 'fuck wit'. You also clearly have no clue what autism is and how offending you are being to autistic people, and yeah, I classify my thumb as a finger, as stated before, did your teacher ever tell you that you have 10 toes and 8 fingers, thought not . Fuck wit :D

  • @peterf282 Congratulations on declaring your autism for all of YouTube to see. You classify your thumb as a finger? Way to go, fuck wit.

  • @peterf282 no its not you only have 4 fingers on each hand, the other is a thumb.

  • Dude thanks

  • How stupid is the mass populous of YouTube users how did the conversations get to be about thumbs being fingers. you people clicked the damn video so just shut the hell up and watch that's really all there is to it

  • Thank you so much! :D I love this song and you really helped a lot! Thanks for including what the strumming pattern is also, I couldn't find it anywhere

  • it's played with a capo on 3rd it sounds like the song more

  • dude what guitar is that

  • good video, very helpful
