Thunder Road - (Bruce Springsteen Piano cover)

Ok, Here's a new take on Thunder Road.. If you saw my first try and remember it, plz leave a comment and tell me if this is better or worse;)

Thunder Road is my all time favourite song by Springsteen together with Backstreets and Lost in the Flood.. I hope to be able to upload Lost in the Flood as well in the near future! Enjoy

Ps. This is all done by ear.. no sheet available, my inspiration sources however is this version even if this is to sped up;) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M6n2fcvG_ME , I also used the Hammersmith Odeon '75 version a bit.. And YES I did a few mistakes;) I hope they won't spoil the song alltogether..

Damn I'm jealous of your talent! I have a long way before I have your level of skill... I know you said you play by ear, but I was wondering if you had any other kind of preparation for it. If not, please tell me, how did you get so good at playing by ear?

@coglapse Actually there is some "patterns" ;) basically you can play every chord in three different ways, C for intance is G-C-E. C-E-G or E-G-C, the highest note in that chord is often the actual melody for the song, so if you play a C note in the melody and theres a C chord you can just fill in the G and E under that C note.. Hard to write like this but try to test it out and write to me in PM if there's something you don't understand!
