    I like this a lot, particularly how you carry on regardless as your kid wanders in front of the camera and how you're happy to let the odd mistake go without worrying. It somehow makes it more accessible than a flawless presentation - as if I might actually be able to do it too.

    the fast picking part is my final boundary and then I shall be able to play my first full tune with your instruction... Thank you, will be watching much more of your stuff once I have cracked this one :)

    i had to write it down as he was playing it. I got most of it So far i have O = open string
    First part F = Fret
    (cords)
    C x3
    Fx1
    Cx1
    Second part
    (string)
    C - O x3
    C - 2F
    E - O, 1F, 3F, 1F, O
    Third part
    (string)
    E - 3F x3
    A - O, 2F,3F, 5F, 3F, 2F
    Forth part
    (string)
    E - O, 1F, 3F, O, 1F
    C - 2F
    E - O
    C - O, 2F
    Fifth Part
    (string)
    C - O x2, 2F
    E - O
    C - O
    E- O
    C - 2F
    that's where i lost it just at the fast part, i got the cords but not the strumming pattern.

    @billyaitken1713 4 роки тому

    I already had the simple bit figured out by the time I saw this but towards the end of the tutorial life looked up😯😎👍❗️This was the first 'roll' I ever learned & got to play well. It does take practice to get the pattern in your mind & translated to your fingers.....stick with it. once you've got it mastered you won't un-learn it.... it's yours for life😎👏👏👏. Great explanation and tutorial Capt. Birdseed. ( ironically, the second 'roll' I learned was far simpler (Radio head - no surprises), but this one rocks when you can put some pace on it😜👍).
