If you're a beginner wanting to learn bar chords, this is a really good song to start off with. You will not get it right away but you can start developing using this.

Fun fact: Barre chords are what the devil made to torture all beginner guitar players.

You might already have it by now but if you keep practicing barre chords and get it down, they are some of the most useful ways to play every song !

Adjust your truss rod. I didn't realize how bad mine was . I was struggling to play barre chords for literal years to the point I stopped playing. I recently picked it back up again with a buddy who played more frequently and I tried his guitar to find the bar chords were way easier. Then he picked up mine and found it almost impossible to play chords and explained how my truss rod had little to no relief in it. Good luck.

My God. I've been wanting to play this song since i first picked up a guitar 10 years ago. The intro always discouraged me from trying to learn it. And here a I am all these years later, two PBR tall boys in my stomach on a Wednesday night. When what could only be an illusion in this desert of not being able to play this song. But you are no mirage, sir. And I'm actually making real progress in being able to play this song. Thank you, I don't know how you did it, but you did.

Dude, this is the best tutorial I've ever seen. You got me playing this song like a professional almost immediately. Thanks!

It’s amazing that this is free

Never found sucha good tutorial, Keep it up man. I really liked the begining where you went through the song WITH the tabs.

Totally agree with all of these comments, most in depth yet easy to follow tutorial I've seen. Instant subscribe. Thanks man

Thanks, I’ve been playing for about a year and a half and this is a really fun song to play

This is the best song tutorial I have seen. Awesome stuff!

Cool version that works well for solo acoustic gigs. I'm always looking for ways to make that work haha. But, in case people wanna know..... Those bend notes in the Chorus can be played either on the 4th fret of the B string (2nd string) or the 8th fret of the G string (3rd string). You could also bend the 7th fret on the G string, or the 3rd fret of the B string, you just have to bend harder. (This matters, depending on the gauge of your strings) For me, it's easier to play it on the 4th fret of the B string, just cause it's closer to where your hand is already at....less movement needed. (side note) The chord you labeled "B/Bb" in the bridge is actually a Bbm6. It's just a minor 6th interval, and technically not a chord, cause it just has a Gb with 2 Bbs. (not that theory really matters, since we can still play the chords without knowing their name lol)

I think this song is so cool and so much fun to play on my electric guitar. I have a Parker Nite Fly 2004. It does this song so much justice. Love this lesson. You go into great detail which is very much appreciated. Good stuff to know.

awesome song! great lesson. probably the perfect beginner song.

Liked and subbed. I love the way you put the tabs first so more advanced players can just _play._ Cheers!

This is the best tutorial for this song on acoustic. Great vid!!!

Dude the strumming is so damn hard to get so smooth

Excelente!!! Felicitaciones! Saludos desde Argentina.

David I have to thank you. I'm a new player, trying a few simple songs I like. I came across you for this song and it has improved my playing trying to learn it. I can play it down pat now, took me a while, but worth it considering how my barr chords are progressing. oh, and can you say 'barr' more? love how you say it. Great Stuff David

thanks for this simple cover my man, I've been focusing too much on playing fingerstyle, that I frogot how fun barre chords can be. Awesome cover/tutorial!

Thank you for this. It helps a beginner like me out alot when it's simplified. Subscribed!

Been looking for a thorough tutorial. Thanks my dude!

Down/palm mute, up, down/palm mute, up (x7) The last chord just sustains (strum and let it ring out) This is pretty much the whole verse. That the reggae/ska rhythm. What the guy in this video is doing...(he appears to kinda be playin randomly, but this is pretty much it) Down, down, up/palm mute Down, sustain, up, down, up, down/palm mute Down, up

You just gotta feel it I do D-U-D real fast then do one D on G# and the. Do the plucking and then do the same thing for A and E

this is awesome. Have you considered doing any songs by Passion Pit?

This is probably a dumb question but I dont understand what the strumming pattern is....

9:30 I got the chop for the c#m and the a but I'm having a hard time figuring out the g# and the e. For the c#m it's down down up chop. Same for the A. What is it for the other two?

Can someone help with the strumming

Ok I'm literally just beginning and I don't know what I'm doing wrong because I'm playing it and it sounds nothing like it? 😭😭

+brookbabeisaguy115 hmmm good question - that may be it, though I find the muted strum technique is something that's super hard to make sound refined and polished. I'll keep this question in mind for when I eventually do a video on muted strumming.

How in the hell are you muting the E without any fingers touching the E string lol. It vibrates so I assume you're still hitting it

How does he mute on the riff and the chords im having problems with that

if your asking how to mute in general, put your fingers on the strings but dont let it touch the board. you are just simply stopping the vibratinos

im stuck on barring the four middle strings... anyone know any tips?

Just practice, try the chord whenever you play. Don't worry about getting a clear note, just practice pinching with your thumb and finger and you'll eventually build up the strength to play.

When I play that part I barr just the two strings I need

My guitar doesn’t sound the same as yours😪

Same chords as where is my mind

wait my fingers are not made for these hammer ons in the riff

I mean you could have added two more minutes explaining the strumming a bit more to an otherwise excellent tutorial .
