      After practicing this a gazillion times, I’m having fun with it, but I had to play something else for awhile, I’m singing it in my sleep, lol but I was wondering if you might do your version of Sound of Silence...After Simon and Garfunkel s, and then hearing Disturbs version I can just imagine your voice killing it..Yes?

    youre the only one who teaches that tricky descending chord run that brings the solo back to IV ......respect man ...

    I'm assuming the 18 dislikes to this video are those who have never played guitar and just hate Willie Nelson, for this is one of the best tutorials I have ever seen for a guitar lesson. You have a new subscriber and very grateful for your time you put into this great lesson! From the intro, verse, chorus to the great solo, you made this song very easy to play. Thank you Mr. Swift!

      As many bottles of Tequila I've had with Willie Nelson, it totally escapes me why anyone would give this video/tutorial anything besides a resounding "Thumbs Up"!🎸🎵🎶

      its because its not Willie Nelson's song, its Hank Williams song.

    I have listened to this song well over 100 times since I was a young kid in the early 80's I remember my mom playing this on the record player and I can sing it word for word without the music now. I need to learn this riff.

  • @xposethatruth1682
    @xposethatruth1682 3 роки тому +2

    I dig the way you present this. I’ve seen a hundred UA-cam guitar teachers. Honestly I’m not a country guy, but I’m thinking of my grampa today and he was a huge Willie fan. That and I just bought some of his product in Colorado got me thinking of this song.
    I’m glad to have found you.

  • @MatthewThompsonAllen
    @MatthewThompsonAllen 5 років тому +7

    Willie's the best. I always feel good listening to his music. Riot cops have it all wrong. Forget tear gas and pepper spray and rubber bullets and crap. Just start playing Willie and everyone will chill.

    hey there, this is my first video that i have just watched and attempted to play with on guitar, i play on an Electric Keyboard mostly, and a month ago it got damaged after 7 years of having it, luckily my brother had a Acoustic Guitar and ever since i have been messing around with it. i already have some knowledge of music theory and reading sheet music that coupled with my ability of playing by ear helps me a lot with my music, i got the basic root notes down and decided to straight away look for a video on youtube and figure out the song, which key, which chord progression etc. and man oh man you just inspired me to learn how to play guitar fully. thank you so so much, hope you have success with all projects, and hope your channel gains more success. you just gained a new subscriber. you have an awesome voice by the way, might even compete with the big man himself haha. again, i thank you.
