    Awesome lesson!! Nice job breaking it down without dragging it out. Maybe should’ve done a quick lesson video on the little sweet hammer ons you added at the end

    A little bonus: When you're strumming the progression, the 2nd bar of Am can be Am7 by just lifting up the middle finger and letting the G string be open. Also the tuning is Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb if you're aiming to sound like the recording

    Colby, I say this with all due respect as a public speaking instructor. I know you are nervous, but be aware of your word whiskers, such as OKAY and Alright. It might be healful for you to count all of your okays and train yourself not to use them. If you have time, try and join a Toastmasters club. Another benefit to joining a TMC is your songwriting off the cuff will improve. I hope that helps you. Thanks for your video.

    Not trying to be an a**hole but you are playing the arpeggios wrong bud. But there are so many different variations of this song that it’s not totally wrong. It’s just an easier version. Much easier for a beginner. And no I’m not going to make my own video. If anyone wants to see the best version check out guitar jams with Marty Schwartz.
