    I could never find the right way to tell you
    Have you noticed I've been gone?
    'Cause I left behind the home that you made me
    But I will carry it along
    And it's a long way forward, so trust in me
    I'll give them shelter, like you've done for me
    And I know, I'm not alone, you'll be watching over us
    Until you're gone
    When I'm older, I'll be silent beside you
    I know words won't be enough
    And they won't need to know the names on our faces
    But they will carry on for us
    And it's a long way forward, so trust in me
    I'll give them shelter, like you've done for me
    And I know, I'm not alone, you'll be watching over us
    Until you're gone
    Oh it's a long way forward, trust in me

I broke down and bought a cheap guitar and started playing and now I can play most of Eddie's songs and have been buying, learning and watching his covers since. Thank you for reigniting my passion for playing. I will always be a fan, keep it up!!!

    Lyrics
    I could never find the right way to tell you
    Have you noticed I've been gone?
    'Cause I left behind the home that you made me
    But I will carry it along
    And it's a long way forward, so trust in me
    I'll give them shelter, like you've done for me
    And I know, I'm not alone, you'll be watching over us
    Until you're gone
    When I'm older, I'll be silent beside you
    I know words won't be enough
    And they won't need to know the names on our faces
    But they will carry on for us
    And it's a long way forward, so trust in me
    I'll give them shelter, like you've done for me
    And I know, I'm not alone, you'll be watching over us
    Until you're gone
    Oh it's a long way forward, trust in me
    I'll give them shelter, like you've done for me
    And I know, I'm not alone, you'll be watching over us

    I've always been amazed by your skill ever since I started playing guitar. 3 years later I still am, and hearing this played flawlessly was an emotional experience for me. Keep up the good work, and I hope to see much more later.

      I might be 2 years late but the tuning is Open G♭/B
      BG♭BG♭B♭D♭ , if you are still interesting

    • @mamoopy
      @mamoopy 5 років тому +2

      @Vladimir Putin Google how to use alternate tunings.
      Also for alternate tunings as a general rule of thumb tune the string up or down the way it's closest to originally.
      For example, Tuning your A string to G you would tune down as you only have to go down 2 semitones and not up 10.
      All you need is a tuner. For the tuning of this song every string tunes down

    • @mamoopy
      @mamoopy 5 років тому +2

      @Vladimir Putin If you mean a capo no, a capo changes the key by holding all of the strings down on a certain fret.
      If you want to deaden the sound from your string you will have to mute it with either hand, depending on which is easiest for that section. Or work on your dynamics and control how hard you pluck a string as this affects how long the note will last.

    Your covers are always the ones I strife to master myself, you've been a great inspiration for me in hard times and even made me start to learn guitar. It'll be difficult by myself but I'll keep trying. I want to say thank you for making covers like these that fills me up with happiness and hope but at the same time makes me want to shed tears at how beautiful they are. I wish you and your friends and family the best for the future

    Hello! Your cover is amazing! It's so peaceful that I listen to it when I work! I know next to nothing about guitars, so what does fingerstyle mean? Is that how to refer to when you don't use a pick?

    • @LectornAnigame
      @LectornAnigame 8 років тому +19

      Fingerstyle is the art of playing guitar without using a pick. It allows you to play multiple strings at once which makes it sound as though you are multiple guitar players in one.

    • @isaacmiller448
      @isaacmiller448 8 років тому

      LectornAnigame oh, thank you!

    • @GraylightSynes
      @GraylightSynes 7 років тому

      LectornAnigame already answered this very well, but I'd like to expand on it a bit! "Fingerstyle" also tends to have the connotation of playing the melody ( singing ) part of the song at the same time as the background chords, which is actually very hard to do, because very few songs have melodies that you can comfortably play in the same "area" of the guitar while you're playing the song's other music.

    • @ThatGuy-ep7xq
      @ThatGuy-ep7xq 7 років тому +2

      I think that's a little too generalizing. There's also a finger picking technique that includes using a pick. You hold the pick with your thumb and index finger and pick with the rest.
      Also, finger picks can be considered picks, too, so that's good to take into consideration.

    I watched this video during quarantine and i saw my old guitar that i bought when i was in my High school, at first i dont want to play guitar because i know how then i was scrolling UA-cam when i saw this video then i got the urge to play and learn guitar so during the first week of quarantine i practice my self to play and learn guitar after a while i got the hang of it. And now i can play finger style om guitar's just like you, I know i'm late to say this but i want to thank you for opening my eyes and giving me the urge/hope to play guitar again. If it wasn't for this video i wouldn't play my guitar ❤

    Hello,
    I'd like to tell you that this is my favourite arrangement of the instrumental to this song.
    I'd also like to ask you: Would you allow me to use this arrangement as an instrumental to my singing cover of Shelter? I wanted to record the cover in my native (Polish) with the lyrics I translated myself for at least half a year now but I didn't have the courage to ask you the aforementioned question.
    I would, of course, credit you and the former creators of the song.
    Have a good day~ ^^

    • @blackphoenix9773
      @blackphoenix9773 5 років тому

      On the 5th string the fifth fret is the same note as the open string 4th string, so when he plays it he is playing 4th string open, hammering on the 5th fret on the 5th string and then playing the 4th string open again

    • @fluf8bp
