Joshua Lee. I don't know how many times I watched you and Carson play this song at half speed to get this song down. Now you got a full lesson. Why you gotta do me like this - mad respect, thanks for the tunes brotha

I tried learning it this way on and off for months and and I never got past the first bar. Props to you my friend!

Love this 80's cassette lesson vibe, would be lovely to see you teach more often

It's one of my all time favorite songs. It was nice to get some clarity on why I can't play it.😁

Start with some slower fingerpicking stuff, trust me I was like that too. Make learning guitar as fun as you can and you'll get there eventually

I see a wedding band on Josh's hand now. Congratulations!!!

This is actual footage of Josh's fourth grade class photoshoot. 😂

I was also lucky to look very young through my thirties. Got carded all the time! Not much of a beard. Then ... my body caught up with my age, seemingly instantly. Oh, well ...

I was thinking along similar lines.

Feels like one of those tutorials from the early 2010’s. There’s some subtle humour in this tutorial for me haha

yeah, i'm smashing my guitar against the wall. Thanks for the tutorial man!

Gotta tell you a story....In the early 70's, I was taking a Greyhound bus from Chicago to Minneapolis, Minn to see a girlfriend. Upon boarding, this crusty old guy sat next to me carrying a guitar case. He said he was a blues player. We chatted most of the trip but the most revealing thing he said was that he wrote Sittin' On Top of The World Now, everybody knows that song. His name was Sam Chatmon....a member of the Mississippi Sheiks, which meant nothing to me at my age then.

Sam Chatmon the half brother of Charlie Patton. Both blues legends.

I had the pleasure of seeing Doc play at the Belly Up Tavern, a really small venue in the San Diego area a couple of decades ago, along with his son on second guitar. The man's picking style was magical, and I'll never be that good. Its great to see you carrying on the traditional musical styles and bringing them to new generations of players. Thanks!

I have some finger picks laying around (never really used them though), but the first thing I learned in this lesson is that the few times I did try playing with them, I had them on backwards lol. Awesome to see a lesson for this song, your version with Carson has been playing on repeat for me for a while now!

Thanks a million dude. Unbelievable lesson. Never would have learned it by ear.

Mate you made my week, or however long it takes me to learn this.

OK, right out of the gate - I know exactly what he's talking about at the beginning here. I could totally play this if I felt like it.

Ooh my, thank you and god bless your fingers.

It took me a month and a half to understand precisely what it does. now I just have to do it 500 times to be 100% comfortable! I finally see the light 😅

I literally just saw the cover yesterday and was trying to find the tutorial. I feel like this is a sign😂

YES! YOU ARE A SAINT! I've been jamming to your cover nearly every day since you and Carson released it, but I've procrastinated learning it. It's an absolutely beautiful cover and such a jam. So thankful to be alive in your lifetime so I can rip all your covers and songs🤣

I hadn't even looked since requesting this lesson more than a year ago from your "Don't Think Twice" tutorial. THANK YOU SO MUCH! No one does this as well. No one plays better, either, but Toni is right on your heels in my book.

I really appreciate Josh’s lessons. I’ve made a few cracks at learning this song but this tutorial really helped me move it along. Now maybe in a couple years it will sound half decent.

I like the school photo background

I always try to comment, you are such profound talent, both you and Carson. Your love for all genres of music impress me more than anything else.

You are a fantastic musician, Josh! I am happy to have seen you live in performance. To me you are the Paul McCartney of our times. Thank you so much for your generosity to share insights of your amazing talent!

Paul McCartney? How?

oh my god I just spit out my drink laughing when that intro came 😂

Kelly, that is excellent lighting and editing. Thank you for washing and combing Josh's hair. Josh, excellent tutorial as always. My appreciation for your skill and talent are those of a person who loves guitar music (Paganini, anyone? ) but has never been able to progress past being a poor strummer. So, I live my first playing dreams vicariously through you. Thanks!

Josh never ceases to amaze me!!!

Great lesson, thank you. It’s got the right balance between proper explanation of what you’re doing and actual playing. Not too much talking and to the point - great.

Really hoped for this tutorial after have seen the Don't think twice it's alright one. Thank you Josh

I was hoping for your tutorial of this song! I can't wait to learn it to make a cover for my KZread channel! :) Thank you Josh and greetings from Italy! :)

Love Josh's style and the old Harmony guitar he uses that sounds wonderful.

Nice! Thanks so much for making/posting this! I have always loved the version of this song that you and Carson did and had ambitions of learing to play it. You're the man!

josh turner does marty schwartz

I love your version of this song, you and Carson did great on the performance. Thank you for the tutorial!

Fantastic, been watching you and Carson in various combinations for quite a few years...keep it up❤️

Informative, hilarious, and free! Shoutout Happy Traum for the recording template. Thanks for the tutorial and laughs. Love from Dayton!

This is a very tall mountain to climb for my feeble finger pickin skills, but I might have to go for it. I've watched the referenced performance a ton of times before this instructional version was posted. Absolutely love it. Hope I get it down before I start to hate it.

Bucking frilliant, love the tongue in cheek approach !

Thanks for this one- after seeing you and Carson play this I searched "Josh Turner Sittin on top of the world tutorial". Lo and behold the gift to be found!!

My man!!!! Ive always loved this version, and I have a concert to play in two months, I was going through your video trying to learn it, and now you have a lesson!!!!

We all needed this lesson thank you Josh much appreciated

Hi Josh, watched many of your videos but haven't seen your tutorials before. Really like the style and delivery. Good blend of craft and charisma, and clear and concise information,very good. Thanks

Thanks man, I always wanted a lesson from THE Josh Turner. Love all your songs

I had to figure this out before on my own, and now there’s this!? Very cool

Thank you for everything Josh.

Thank you for this tutorial, Josh

Simple genious👏 Pure pleasure to watch and listen!

Wow thanks dude, I was mystified by where to start with this song now I can muddle through, so much fun, thanks

Bro you have no idea about how happy you make me feel with this video is all I've been searching for long time ☺️ 🙏🙏🙏 good Blees you brothers I'm listening this from Amsterdam 😎👌💚☘️🍃🌿🌱 good vibes for y'all

I'm fascinated by the Harmony guitar. I live in Scotland and was in a rock group in the sixties. I remember A Harmony semi acoustic electric model, but I've never seen a flat top acoustic like this one. It sounds great - and I just love the headstock - very retro!

Thank you Josh, really appreciate this, great tune!

Thanks for taking time out to make this video. I am an intermediate player and this video is perfect for me. Thanks again Josh.

Never heard an old Harmony sound that good!

I’m so happy you did this. I’ve been trying to find the way you play it for a little bit

Excellent lesson. Thank you!

man, that greetings is epic ;-) thank you taking time to do these tutorials, love to you and all around you

That same Harmony was my 1st guitar !!!!! Love seen you playing it. Wish I still had it. Your great. Love your work and Nice lesson. Thanks.

great job Josh. hi from france

Thanks a lot for this tutorial it took me a little while to understand and memorize this song not perfect yet but on the way to

I wish I saw this 50 years ago when I was trying to figure it out from Happy Traum's 1966 book. So that's what Doc was doing with the counterpoint in the slack parts. Nice. I couldn't figure it out. Thanks.

Nice one Josh 👍🏻

Bro even the way you look at me with your buttoned up shirt and disappointed look is frightening the living hell out of me. How could I ever learn this song and do you justice lmao.
