First time I've ever changed the tuning of one of my two guitars, have left one tuned to this while I learn to play it. It's lessons like this that make me love playing guitar. Cheers mate
Thank you so much for this Justin! Mumford and Sons are one of my favourite bands and this is my favourite song by them! I would love it if you could do more M&S songs, I'm sure I'm not the only lover out there. Thanks a lot mate :)
Justin, you have amazing videos! I love the way you teach! But most of all, I like how you do this mini preview of the song before the lesson and it gets me all pumped up!
I waited WAY too long to learn this one and I've had the acoustic songbook for awhile now. Always thought it sounded harder to play than it actually is. Thanks for another awesome lesson Justin!
Thanks, Phil. I couldn't imagine anyone dis-liking this or any of Justin's postings. I agree with you, what schmuck hit "dislike"? Probably someone who can't make a go of this song.
That was so awesome mate im slowly getting better after playing guitar for a few months and having your song book, your a massive help when needed keep it up cant wait till i can play this!
Hey Justin, great lesson really cool song to learn and good fun to play. Any chance of doing some more M&S songs like I Will Wait? Keep doing what you do man, you're class
Thanks a lot for the video Justin, I love that song and was waiting for the lesson since I've seen it as a part of your acoustic song book. I wasn't expecting it so early, but now, I promise I'll work hard on mastering it (along with the beginner course) =)
I LOVE this lesson the only thing I wish you could explain better is the little riff between the chorus and going back to the verse. If you could reply to this with the tabs for it, I would greatly appreciate it!
I love watching great guitar players like Justin strum/pick. I think people don't value the beauty of great strumming/picking near enough when it really makes all the difference to a song. PS- Thanks again Justin for introducing me to another great song/band and saving me all the time of watching their live version to figure it out.
I think Justin would say it is mainly more friendly to your guitar and strings. Tuning to EBEG#BE would invove tuning the 5th 4th and 3rd strings up, causing more tension in those strings and pressure on the bridge of your guitar. cheers
Very nice lesson, for riff 2 I use the same technic as in She talks to Angels for the chords, so reaching over the top of the neck. I play on a mini Maton and cant fit my fingers any other way..
Such a great tuning, I play in this tuning a lot its great for Japanese fingerstyle pieces (i.e. Isato Nakagawa, Masaaki Kishibe) and John Fahey stuff. Thanks Justin, good lesson as usual.
I learned this song on a much simpler tab from UltamateGuitar.com. But since i don't think that tab really sounds like the song, i implemented some of this video into it. Now it sounds great! Great video!
Yeah most of the time you can't trust that site. Lots of searching in the different versions for the right one. Much rather have tablature than chords.
I'm a latvian and I approve this message! Ewert and Two Dragons is easily on par with Mumfords. Even if you Justin don't do a lesson be sure to check them out ;)
Usually not, but you can shift it around to stop buzzing or if some of the strings are out of tune. Usually putting it on at a slant will throw the guitar out of tune but if you re-tune once you put it on, it doesn't matter.
Thank you for making this, the video's been so helpful I've kept coming back to it, watching the hell out of it until I've kinda got it. I only know one other song so I', pretty new but it's actually so much fun to learn this song. :D (We won't mention what my version sounds like ;) )
9 years ago you made this. I’m thanking you today. This is now my favorite song to play because of you. 🙏🏼 ❤️
thanks for sharing :)
9:42 "Fantastic set of chords, really. Properly beautiful" - Justin
First time I've ever changed the tuning of one of my two guitars, have left one tuned to this while I learn to play it. It's lessons like this that make me love playing guitar. Cheers mate
You play it good. Spot on.
Never really listened to Mumford and sons until this lesson, where have I been!? Such an awesome band and such a great tune to play.
7 months into my guitar journey and this has by far been my favorite to learn - thank you Justin!
Just ordered a capo, so I will finally be able to play this haha.
Did it arrive ?
You’re right about using the dduu picking pattern, it helps when you chord change and have to pick 6-5-3-4. You’re right as always. Thanks Justin!
It's very cool, not sure I'll do any lessons right away, but I'm enjoying listening to it!! :)
Very very good finally not only the intro and played super cool and also your explanation…thanks a lot
More Mumford and sons please Justin!
Most clear lesson for this song - cheers!
Thank you very much Justin! You play en explain it nice and easy so it's a pleasure to learn it.
you are a legend and make things so easy. Thanks
Many many many many many many thanks Justin for posting that masterpiece. Man I love that song!
So good man. I need to get good enough to learn this. Great talent
Really enjoy your playing and how you broke down the song. Thanks
Mumford and Sons were my first concert, and it was probably one of the best I'll ever see
I never fail to be impressed by your lessons Jusitn. So accurate, such great tone, and your delivery is so down to earth. Long may you continue.
Great lesson on a fun song. Well explained Justin. Greatly appreciated
you really made this simple, thanks!!
Thank you so much for this Justin! Mumford and Sons are one of my favourite bands and this is my favourite song by them! I would love it if you could do more M&S songs, I'm sure I'm not the only lover out there. Thanks a lot mate :)

I waited WAY too long to learn this one and I've had the acoustic songbook for awhile now. Always thought it sounded harder to play than it actually is. Thanks for another awesome lesson Justin!
I'm reading this late a night eager to learn it as soon as possible. Been playing for some months now so hope I can play it. Love the song.
Love this!! I think I will have to stick to the beginners songs for now but can't wait to get to this point!! Love you and your lessons Justin!!
Great lesson!
Thank you so much for your wonderful lessons! Some of the best on You Tube

Thanks, Phil. I couldn't imagine anyone dis-liking this or any of Justin's postings. I agree with you, what schmuck hit "dislike"? Probably someone who can't make a go of this song.
I love the acoustic songbook and that I get an online lesson to go with it! Fun song.
This was amazing. Thank you Justin. Absolutely fantastic as usual.

Justin, three words.

I know you're more into teaching but I really would of loved seeing you do the whole song. That first minute and a half was great!!
it’s empty in the valley of your heart
You are amazing! I love your videos!
Thanks a lot for the video Justin, I love that song and was waiting for the lesson since I've seen it as a part of your acoustic song book. I wasn't expecting it so early, but now, I promise I'll work hard on mastering it (along with the beginner course) =)
I used to struggle as well for at least a year after starting, just keep at it!
Sang brilliantly man

Subscribed. I'm determined to learn this beautiful instrument within the year!
and how did that work out for you? professional yet?
how did it go?
No one ever learns the guitar. The guitar merely learns ones inadequacies.
You sound great in this one justin
I LOVE this lesson the only thing I wish you could explain better is the little riff between the chorus and going back to the verse. If you could reply to this with the tabs for it, I would greatly appreciate it!
Sounds awesome
This is brilliant. Thank you. Loving learning this

Amazing tutorial
Please Keep Singing! :)

love this tutorial, i just need to practice of the sliding chords… mine doesn’t sound as well as yours !
Very nice lesson, for riff 2 I use the same technic as in She talks to Angels for the chords, so reaching over the top of the neck.
I play on a mini Maton and cant fit my fingers any other way..
Your vocal vibrato sounds quite appropriate for this song! Almost spot on, just not quite enough of it :) Thanks big time - cheers!
Wow! Amazing!
Bought acoustic book two days sorted cheers justin
Such a great tuning, I play in this tuning a lot its great for Japanese fingerstyle pieces (i.e. Isato Nakagawa, Masaaki Kishibe) and John Fahey stuff. Thanks Justin, good lesson as usual.

Amazing performance
Superb !!
I really enjoyed it learning
I'm a latvian and I approve this message! Ewert and Two Dragons is easily on par with Mumfords. Even if you Justin don't do a lesson be sure to check them out ;)
Awesome !!
Holy shit dude that is absolutely perfect to the real thing :O how do you do these things you do :O
Bravo dude, love it!!! PS hi to Jedi too x
Usually not, but you can shift it around to stop buzzing or if some of the strings are out of tune. Usually putting it on at a slant will throw the guitar out of tune but if you re-tune once you put it on, it doesn't matter.
should soooo do more mumford & sons songs
This was fun to learn and this is irrelevant to the video but its it possible to do a tutorial of Slow it Down by The Lumineers?
Amazing.
3:56 dang this part makes me wanna learn heart shaped box now
Cheers Justin !!!
You sing that really well btw :-)
Can the whole song be played ? Or just the part that Justin did ? Kinda scary to do it alone ^^
please do some more Mumford
1:21 the coolest time
Thank you for making this, the video's been so helpful I've kept coming back to it, watching the hell out of it until I've kinda got it. I only know one other song so I', pretty new but it's actually so much fun to learn this song. :D (We won't mention what my version sounds like ;) )
That was good!
Just cool - wanted to tune my guitar with capo on and had no idea what I was doing, Now my high E string is broken. Merry Christmas to me :(
There's a great Keep your head up tutorial out on UA-cam.
Good luck finding it ;)
Thanks mate :D
Very cool
he is awesome
Dat Intro doe Justin. 👍🏼Lol
When I first started my dad taught me not to tune with the capo on and I guess I never questioned it. Why do you suggest tuning with it on?
