Thanks for watching! Glad you’re getting it! I do these videos for private students of mine, but if you’d like to commission a video lesson for a specific song I can definitely do that for you!

In the verse? It would be A A G G / D B A D Thanks for checking out the vid and congratulations on just starting out! I teach virtual lessons at reasonable rates if you’re interested at all!

@@jeffw4698 Thank you Jeff...yes, in the verse...I can hardly get to the chorus...lol....I'll keep practicing...still learning very basic stuff, I only chose this song bcz my sister covers it with her band and it makes us think fondly of our dad. The other tunes I'm working on, along with teaching myself notes etc, are: Tore Down, Angel from Montgomery, Can't let Go, (Lucinda Williams) and Dreams, (FleetM)...couple easy ones and a couple that are more challenging. I really need to get the basic fundamentals down...it's a challenge for sure. I've never played an instrument, and I'm LEFT Handed....and I'm 53....old dog, new tricks as they say. thank again for replying to me. BB

@@betsybaye4951 No problem at all! Sounds like you’re on the right track and working on the right stuff! In addition to lessons I also do commissions for video tutorials like this one for any song you’d want to learn, so if you’d ever like smth like that please shoot me a message!

@@betsybaye4951 I hope you are still at it, at 70 I started guitar; electric, acoustic, electric, and acoustic bass all are like different instruments but things come together. However, I am not left-handed. lol

@@flouisbailey Oh, I'm still practicing a little bit every day. Still working on a few specific songs, along with learning the neck. Next is chords.... I live in a small resort community but there are a ton of really great local musicians. Thank you for the encouragement.

Hey, thank you for the follow and the comment! My pleasure :)

I’m sure it doesn’t hurt, but I just upload the lessons I film for one of my private students and he occasionally asks for a slowed down version to play along with.

@@jeffw4698 ok I see! Very helpful

Thanks my friend!!

Thank you, my friend!!

Hey thanks for the feedback :) My goal here wasn’t a note for note tutorial but a simplified version for one of my students to get the song under his fingers. You should make a vid with the correct picking rhythm, I’d love to see it!

I recognised the bass line so what is the problem as long as people are making music and enjoying it or entertaining audiences with it ?? We ain't training them to be brain surgeons !!

oops meant R -5

@@401Blues Right you are about the root-fifth groove! If I’m looking at the right fill then what I’m doing is D-A-C#-B-A (that last A being on the downbeat of the new verse and is the first note of our new verse) so essentially, thinking relative to our home key of A major, the fill is 4-8-3-2-1. The 4 because it’s the root of the chord we’re currently on, D, then the 8 because it’s the five of our D and also the octave of our root, and then continuing the line down from our root, D, takes us neatly back to the 1 just in time to hit the downbeat of the new verse. When possible I always try and keep a bassline leading stepwise to the note JW want to get to, with just enough notes that I don’t arrive early or late but hit the chord change right on the downbeat. If that wasn’t the fill you were talking about then let me know what time stamp the one you meant was and I’ll take a look :)

Thanks, brother!

Thank you so much! Glad you're getting good info out of the lessons :)

Well, how did you make out?

Thank you for this comment!!!! I'm so happy to hear that you've been finding my lessons helpful! I've been making these video lessons for a private student of mine but am thinking about making more just for youtube. Have to get better at organizing my thoughts, shooting and editing video, all that stuff first, but in the meanwhile I'll continue posting the lessons I make for my student. Keep rocking! :)

@@jeffw4698 If your taking more students...i'd like to be next in line!

@@401Blues I’m always taking on more students! If you’re interested shoot me a PM :)

@@jeffw4698 how do I send PM?

@@401Blues hmm I guess youtube doesn't have a private message function. I remember it having that years ago lol shoot me an email at jeffmweisz@gmail.com :]

Thank you!!

Fraser Walpole no tab but I have a transcription for standard notation, if you’d like that

Jeff Weisz yeah mate even better!
