Aww thank you Jonathan

The reason people can't "'shuffle" as you say is because they don't listen to enough swing. The best rock musicians from the 60s and 70s listened to jazz and the blues.

This is the best video I've found so far for this song! I learned essentially the same chords and strumming pattern from multiple other videos but I couldn't figure out why it didn't sound right when I played it. Well, now I know it's because of the swing beat. After just a little bit of trying to strum this way, I can already hear it starting to sound like the actual song! Thank you!

I have no idea how I found your channel, but I am so glad I did. Your lessons are so easy to follow and understand. I finally think I can get to a place in my guitar playing where I will be able to play for friends and they will actually know what I'm playing.

I've been learning the first 7 chords & feel I need to make progress with strumming now, so as to make some better sounds. I a admire your style of teaching, it's very calming & down to earth, you're a great lady who makes it possible to relate to your way of teaching. Thank you very much indeed, I've found it difficult in the past but recently invested in a more expensive guitar, far better sound too.. I just need strum better, then look on your website for songs I know, I feel that will help me improve.. Start safe & happy Lauren

Pretty close, but it's more like this: Em goes; bass, down-up, bass, up-down-up. Then the D6/9/F# goes; bass, up-whack, up-whack, up-down-up. The "bass" is just a down strum on the 6th string. The "whack" is when you use the blade of your strumming hand to silence the strings. It's strange at first, but sounds just like the recording, once you have it down. It's the first song I taught myself and the first one I show anybody else how to play. Love your channel!
