      Oddly enough the simple chord songs are the number 1s and the ones that stickout the most.

    hey, I don’t normally comment, but I showed this video to my 10-year-old yesterday… He’s been going to guitar lessons and learning the way that you said you started out. The legit C, D, G.. after seeing this video, he was playing the song in 15 minutes. The first time he sang with his guitar was last night. You should have seen his face after he got done with the verse. I wish I had it on video so I could show you… You would have loved it. Anyway, awesome job dude… Keep up the great work! God Bless!!

    Man.. thank you so much. I’ve been struggling with singing guitar and playing for over a year. I’m mainly a big 90s/2000s rock guy, so learning songs like that (for singing anyway) has been rough. But I watched this and it clicked. Starting with just downstrokes helped a ton. Thank you so much!!!

    Got a personal request man!! So I go deployment really soon(currently on 14 day quarantine before I leave). And my newly made fiancé just sent me song “””Honey I’m home by Dylan Scott””” I recently just picked up playing and can already play a few songs but I can’t get the strumming pattern down for this song. I would appreciate it so much if you could make a video so that way I can play it for her once I’m back home!

  • @thefishers2001

    just found this video, it's great, thank you! one question... the chord you call "c" is not how I've learned it, and I can't see exactly what your fingers are doing. are you only fretting and strumming the A and D strings and just leaving the B1 string/fret out? is there another string you're fretting in the chord instead of the B1? Thanks again, great stuff! 😊
