One of my all-time songs. I always loved it as a child when it was played on the radio. The vocal track is from the re-recording on the album "See You There".
I am grateful to you for presenting us amazing songs! ;D
I absolutely love this song as well. It's so melancholy I somehow cannot bring myself to actually play it.
I, also, have loved this song since I was a child...totally mesmerized when it came on the radio!!! Promised myself I'd learn it on guitar back when I was a teenager...now I'm 58, & learned it. Better late than never!!! Thank you, Sir, for the video(s). Cheers from Lorida, Florida!!!😁📀💿🎉🌅
@@douglasholdenjr.45as a senior myself now at 62, and a native Floridian, I can certainly identify with you sir! I too, have loved this song from childhood, and was always impressed with Glenn Campbell’s guitar prowess and skill with which he performed this particular hit! I’m so glad to have the tabs to study for this one, and I will be working on it for some time to come! Thanks to the instructor and am subscribing now! Kudos for the brilliant job!😉😊😎
@@toddmcintosh83 Cheers, brother!!! You'll knock it out!!! Nowhere near as difficult as you think!!! I break down songs into sections, then, learn 1 section at a time(really get it down), then, the next section, etc...then, put it all together. I found this to be an awesome way to learn songs. Especially, more complex ones. Lile eating a good cheeseburger...can't eat it in one bite, but a bite at a time works. How I learn songs...how I have for 45 yrs!!!😝😂😁👍. Works for me. I'm in Lorida, Florida on the Kissimmee river. Was raised in Okeechobee(25 miles from me now). In God's country with a singing wife(bachelor's degree in vocal performance) and my guitars!!! Keep at the song!!! Check out "Ultimate Guitar" too. Great for learning songs!!! Justinguitar.com is phenomenal too!!! Cheers, brother, & God bless!!!😁🤘👍🙏🙏💿📀🎉🌅
I like how you don't spend ten minutes talking about what you're about to do. SUPER TUTORIAL.
This is one of the best chord teaching presentations I have ever watched. Well done.
One of my favorite songs ever. Even when I was a kid and knew nothing of music, this song grabbed my attention. And now after playing guitar for 45+ years, I love it even more. The chord structure in this song is so unique, not like anything else. You did a great job!
Thank you. Finally someone with the correct chords
The way you present this is absolutely the best. The chord shapes are right there, the timing is spot on, you went through the whole song and you didn't repeatedly stop and talk. I found this very, very helpful and I'm really impressed. It must have been a lot of work getting the timing right for the display of the chord shapes. Also you sang it beautifully. Thanks very much.
Thanks, but this is actually Glen's vocal track.
Incredible song written by Jim Webb (you can tell because it doesn't follow normal keys and rock/blues formulas) and wonderfully performed by Glen Campbell. thanks for this!
That's a great observation. Also, I need to expand my range.
This is one of the best tutorials on UA-cam. Straight to the point and appropriately detailed. Well done!
I've been playing this over and over with my guitar. I can't get this song out of my head!!
But thank you again for posting it!
Holy smokes..
That is awesome! I love that song. I'm going to go grab one of my guitars and play along! 🤗
...WOW!!!!!! THANK YOU, VERY MUCH!!! FOR THIS INCREDIBL, AUTHENTIC SOUNDING DEMO/LESSON! "BAVO!!!!" THANK YOU FOR SHOWING THE CHORD DIAGRAMS, AND FOR THE BEAUTIFUL VOICE, AND STRUMMING&PICKING!!!
I've been trying to conquer this arrangement for about 18 months. Thank you for the precise changes and rhythm pattern. Much appreciated. PS - Fantastic vocals, BTW.
Vocals were Glenn Campbell
Well said ... me too .
Probably one of the top 10 songs ever written and recorded. It absolutely mesmerized me when I was a kid hearing it on the radio. Thanks for the lesson, brother!!! Just found your channel yesterday...immediately subscribed!!!😁💿📀🎉
Sounded great instrumentally and vocally...and very helpful with the chord visual. Thank you! Signed, A long time drummer trying to impersonate a guitarist 🎸 😄
I played drums first also...so did Eddie Van Halen. Drummers make great guitarist if the time is put in.
Add me to your list. I always said it helped my drumming cuz I was super beginner for so long. When my daughter was born I had to pack up the drums. ( Worried about hearing damage for the kid). Now I can play about maybe 5-6 cords and change pretty fast. Been trying to play guitar for about 25 years. It's not easy
@@robertmccool1543 Keep at it, brother!!! It's well worth the time and effort!!! I have a guitar within reach as soon as I wake up...usually the first thing I grab!!!😝😝😂😂 Check out Justinguitar UA-cam channel. Best guitar teacher, beginner through advanced, I've seen. Good luck, & God bless, brother!!! 2023 is the year to get great on guitar!!!
I can play along on guitar right along with the video, thanks for a great rendering of this great song.
Excellent tutorial. Easy to follow, no rambling explanations, and a great voice as a bonus. Many thanks 😊
Wow, wow wow I have watched so many people teaching songs but nobody's even close to as good as you are. It is clear. It is concise the chords on the bottom that are large easy to see. You have a great voice as well. Thank you so much for setting a whole new standard on learning guitar.
This is awesome. Very approachable yet not covered much.
Well done great guitar playing
Thanks foe the reply it seems I am listening to older music more and more
Just one word... Perfect!
Although I've known this song since childhood, I recently discovered how beautiful it is and wanted to find out how to play it on guitar. Your tutorial is the best I've seen. Combining you playing it, with the chord charts below and Glen's isolated vocals was brilliant. I hope other tutorials learn from your approach. A few calluses later I'm now tearing up as I strum and sing this beautiful song thanks to you.
This is excellent for us players. Fantastic tutorial and tracking with the original voice makes it great! Thank you!
Really great. And extremely nicely sung too.
I'm inspired and will learn that tomorrow.
Wow....I love this, how the chords and song are broken down, and played with the vocal. One of my favorite songs of all time. The only thing that would make this better is if you had played the solo after the second verse, the way GC plays it. Thanks!
Wow.... this is a fantastic rendition of the classic song!! Congratulations on a great performance! 🤘
WOW! Great performance and I will look for future tutorials . Random YT search but very impressed !
Just browsing the Internet for a guitar tutorial on this song- there are many. However, what struck me and shocked me was your voice! Holy Smokes! Incredible!
Webb wrote the melody that intentionally is discordant with the root on some chords to add tension to the haunting melody.
That with the altered chords and surprising key changes make for a virtuoso written song.
Glen played the solo on a borrowed baritone guitar because they didn't have a third verse, he just brilliantly
played the melody note for note with the lower range strings perfectly matching the mood and spirit.
Someone said on another Rick Beatto post that the violins in the chorus outro mimic the sound of power lines crackling and singing in the wind.
I believe that since the premise does not reveal the era, it could have well been when the first linemen were repairing the telegraph lines
and the dancing violin lines sound sort of like morse code being tapped out.
A absolute Masterpiece with props to the great Jimmy Webb.......Glen was/is a treasure.
thanks so much...beautiful song
Thanks for this classic...takes me back....great tutorial..have a great day
Helpful, great singing too!
:-) Thank you, but it's actually Glen Campbell's vocal track.
@@hitsonacousticguitar OMG, I thought yo were refused by The Voice, sorry!
THANK YOU , THANK YOU , IT THE BEST COUNTRY SONG EVER MADE!!!
This is fantastic! Thank you so much!!
It's the incredible group of musicians the other musicians labeled "the wrecking crew". Their fulltime job everyday was creating background music for TV, movies, beach boys in the 1960's thru idk when. Carol kayne played bass on Wichita lineman and came up with that simple sweet intro. Glen (I love that guy) was a member, Leon Russell, who else, the bonanza theme guitar guy, tedesco, rip, watch that documentary, the wrecking crew, it's not hard to find. They played backup on so many famous groups, solo stars and never got a mention anywhere! Brian Wilson specifically wanted them for his album animal sounds while the beach boys went on tour . B.B.'s got the credits. Mammas and the Pappas. Just watch it
Glen used Carol Wayne's guitar for that enigmatic solo . Of course that song is still one the best songs ever written. Glen, I loved u as a kid , love u always and Jimmy Webb , what a super great songwriter! Thank you for it all. Thanks mom and dad for bringing Glen Campbell home. Love the good time hour too. Mason Williams, wish I still had the 45, we know it , classical gas. I learned alot about playing guitar cos of that show. I loved it so much. I even bought an ovation for it later . Yay! (I don't play an ovation anymore, I moved on. ; ) thanks for posting. Just sayin
Saw the documentary and fell even deeper in love to the music
Brilliant. One of my favourite songs. Thanks for this one. Well played, and some interesting chords in there .
nicely done and song with a lot of heart thank you
This is a great lesson. I thought this song was out of reach, but I'm getting it thanks to this tutorial. Many thanks!
Thank you for that. Very easy to follow.
Nicely done. Appreciate the great pointers
Thanks, just the tutorial I needed
Great vocals!
It's Glenn Campbell
What a great tune
Fantastic presentation of an iconic song your tutorial has helped me play it completely like that original thank you
Thanks for putting this together!
Excellent presentation
Dang, dude, amazing job, can't wait to try to learn this.
Thank you so much!
I love this song.
Been wanting to learn this song , I had no idea had so many interesting chord changes , great song , great workout
Love this song so much, but I never could get the chords right. Then I stumbled on this gem of a channel. Great work. Excellent instruction.
There are several 'how to play' versions of this on youtube, i picked yours cos it was short...
And im SO happy i did, cos i dont need a bunch of yakkin, just the song- lol.
And your chords are written out nicely, and it is absolutely correct by my ear.
There is a version of Glen playing this on the Jools Holland show that im obsessed with lately...( for the last year or so).
He is playing a blue Fender Stratocaster, and his solo is just phenomenal, and i ay lead too, so i gotta learn that one by ear, but its totally worthwhile to me.
I can also sing it well, so with your help here, im off on a nice little journey...thank you for helping-
At 63, getting back to guitar after a 2 year hiatus, ( moving several states away, mainly) im working my way towards a 'comeback'.
Playing the guitar has been such a great thing in my life.
Tunes like this mean im NEVER bored...and nailing it is gonna feel SO good!!!!!
Ed, your post made me go check out his performance on the Jools H show. It was worth it-thanks. I really really loved the big smile and wave he did in the first part of the song. I will admit I was holding back the tears. I have played guitar my whole life and after 50+ years at the age of 65 I finally considered myself a decent player. Then I go fall down and shatter my left wrist. Man O man have I been depressed , but the good news is it is starting to come back- YAY ! Anyway never give up Ed- keep on nailing it !! :-)
@@tefenstrat oh man im so sorry to hear that...thats a painful break im sure...well at least it wasnt your fingers, right?
Im glad you liked that video...its my favorite.
I think hes pretending to grab a live wire, and getting shocked?
Maybe a shout out to an actual lineman?
Im just learning the song.
Another cool part is that real low in the mix, right before the solo, Glen says -'yeah'........
Like hes really happy with the bands sound-
@@tefenstrat theres another guy on here with JUST the solo posted, look into that, it is perfect-
Excellent! Finally found all the right chords. Its hard to hear on the recording with all the arrangements. Chord names slightly off but who cares, every fingering you show sits in the song perfect. Thank you so much. Hard to find an accurate chord chart. You nailed it. Great voice by the way!
a genius makes the complex simple.. well done
The vocal is brilliant. 😊😊
Jesus...i'm wondering if this is Glen...why else obscure the face? The voice is so spot on...too much so.
Great rendition! Thank you.
This is perfect! Thanks
Gorgeous.
dont forget we alwys need the great bass line too!!
Dude your voice nails it.. DAMN!
Lovely vocals. Could listed all day! Thanks man!!
Nice👍 chords
You nailed the glen C vocal great!!!
Brilliant..thankyou
excellent!
thanks for this
Well done! 🎸
Great voice, Excellent. Thank you.
Well did! Vocal is fantastic!
Wonderful just like Glen.
Vocals were spot on.
Well done. Accurate!
This is great! I don’t know how you didn’t get a copyright strike on it but I’m glad you didn’t! 😊
You did that justice. Thank you.
Pretty cool brother. Ty.
Awesome thanks 👏
wow the vocal
Awesome!
Great singning and playing
Wonderful playing and singing 🎶
You got a great voice!
That’s nice, but this is actually Glen Campbellˋs voice extracted from a recording.
Very nice.
Very nice! In no way, shape, form or fashion is this a criticism…just a comment from a musician. It seems you missed one of the most remarkable elements of the song (IMO). And that is, although (I believe) it is technically written in the key of F major, it ends with a big D major chord. You ended it with a big Bbmaj7th chord.
What if he can't sing it in that key?
@@Hugh_Manitee - Same key, different ending chord.
I agree, a D major is what I’m expecting and is a beautiful punctuation at the end. But the vocal performance was gorgeous!
Thank You 👍
great voice, man!
I didnt think you would have the vocals but damn brother you owned it - you sounded great and the guitar work was great as well- well done!
Thanks, but this is actually Glen's vocal track.
Love this type of video. Thanks!
Thanks for the chord diagrams!
Thank you
Excellent job !
So who is doing this...?? Man he sure sounds a lot like Glen! Nice nice job :-)
Perfect tutorial
And one more thing super lean teaching none of the chitchat BS that I don't really wanna hear. I just wanna cut to the chase. Wow you are an extraordinary teacher.
Your voice is just like Glenn's and that is a Compliment! Your Great!!
Thanks a lot.i get carried Away!!
Buddy, I'd watch this just to hear your vocals!
That's nice but this is actually Glen singing. I extracted the vocal track from the re-recording on the album "See You There".
Sounds more like Glen Campbell than Glen Campbell does.. and chord charts to boot! I’m in heaven.
It is
Bravo
so nice. singing too
Fantastic. Thank you…
Now I’m curious what other songs you liked when they came on the radio when you you were young 🤪😱😂
Take care, and yes you can answer me if you have the time…😁
Awesome. Thank you.
Thanks!
