Marty, your the best ! I’m 71 years old and this is the best I’ve played since I was 13. Your lessons are keeping me sane in these later years. Good luck my man and keep up the good work. I’ve tried a lot of your videos here on you tube and let me know if there’s something I can do to better my skills and through a few bucks your way.👍
Marty, I tried a few times as a kid to learn. Always gave up. I'm in my 30s now and finally learned. Been playing about 3 years now and I couldn't have done it without you. I love you brother. You are an outstanding teacher. Thank you!
I started watching your videos in my bedroom, playing with no pick and missing a high E string when I was 16 years old. You’re the reason that anyone has ever told me that I was good at playing. Here I am almost 26 now still coming back every so often to learn a new tune. Hello old friend, thank you for everything and happy new year.
Hi Marty, I’m 73 and I love your teaching method! This song is a perfect example,; slow enough, (but not boring), repetitive (just right), complete song. Keep up the good work teaching us old guys how to play these songs correctly!
Thanks Marty. I started playing a year and half ago after my brother passed away. He was a big reason I started playing because he was a huge fan of music and his favorite artist is Neil Young, so, for me, playing is way for me to stay connected and remember him. I am finally at the point where I am good enough to start trying to play some Neil and am starting with this one, every single note and lyric brings up a thousand memories of my brother. Thank you SO much for all of the amazing content. As you know music can do so much for so many people, so, I truly want to thank you for your guidance and helping me learn to play, and, even more importantly help me continue to remember my brother and heal a bit more every time I play. You are the best. Thanks!
Hey Marty : just wanted to thank you so much , I'm a Vietnam post war veteran , I've been dabling with the guitar forever , I've beginning to get the fret board and 🤞 fingering strumming down in the right way thanks to. You , It was fustrating for awhile , but when I started following your guitar lessons , I started really started making sinse of it all and mucsle memoir , I'm actually having fun , it took awhile but your teaching is a motivational spirit , You Love what do , That's very very SPECIAL ,Thanks Marty !!!!
Yes there are others but none of them are as good as Marty Schwartz. His approach in breaking down songs, repeating, and mainly the angle or view of his fret hand in his videos - always very clear and very helpful.
I'm a prodigal guitarist picking it back up after almost 20 years of not playing because of life and what not, and I'm REALLY loving your videos. I'm a professor and I think you're a brilliant teacher; you're fun to watch, you're patient in your explanations and you don't intimidate us not so great players with over the top explanations or nonsense. You make it fun, and more importantly you make it feel possible. Thanks a million! I always wanted to play this tune.
Marty, I've been watching your stuff for about 6 or 7 years now and I just can't thank you enough. You are a great educator! You get to the point, easy to follow, and full of knowledge. Thanks man for everything you do here, it really matters! 👌
Been watching Marty for about 6 years now when I first started playing. Without his videos I probably wouldn’t have kept playing and gave up. Thanks for all the lessons Marty, your a great teacher. I’ve even bought some dvds of Marty’s in the past they are really helpful. ROCK ON 🤘🏻
Marty I started playing when I was a teenager. I got stuck in a pattern of not moving forward but recently discovered your videos. I have improved at an amazing level that I never envisioned. I now play everyday all due to your videos.
just wanted to say that Marty is such a great teacher and an amazing guitarist. Thanks for your bright, engaging and happy approach to teaching you rock dude. -matt from australia
Thanks Marty! Even an old man like my self can sit at his coffee table geeking on the laptop, and learn how to play old songs. Love the detailed instructions, and simple finger placement....Keep up the great work.
Thank you so much marty! I've been watching your videos since I was in the 8th grade and now I'm a senior in college. If it wasnt for your videos I wouldve stopped playing a long time ago. Thank you again and keep inspiring us to play!
Just gotta say that I rally enjoy your instruction and that for the first time since I started trying to play, and that was 40 years ago, I really feel as if I'm actually playing this thing. You've made practicing and playing very rewarding and I want to thank you for that
You, Sir, are an actual musician! Many people criticize anyone who doesn't play note-for-note the identical studio rendition of a particular song, but that wouldn't be music, that would be mechanically mimicking music, which is not music and doesn't require any musicianship. I truly appreciate that you teach the song and leave some of the individual, performance-specific nuances to the artist. You are teaching timing and music theory, great foundations for real music, and real performances. Well done, Sir. Well done.
I love how you teach! I told my friend about you. Small world. You were his music teacher! He gave me his guitar as a gift. Trip out. So stoked to learn from you! You make it fun and understandable. Im in my 40s just started and it's so much fun! Mahalo M.M.
I played a bit in my teens but life took over. Now I'm in my 60's and trying to get back into playing. I've looked at a lot of lessons online but yours are the clearest and easiest to follow. I truly appreciate you putting so many song lessons online. It's giving this old guy hope that I can play again! Thanks and keep it going!!

Your such an awesome teacher man! I’m quarantined with my family gettin over Omicron and I’ve been playing music now my voice is coming back! Yay! Thank you for teaching and may you have a very groovy week! ✌️
Ok, I gotta say, that you are a motivated teacher and your love and enthusiasm shows and is welcome and appreciated. I am a long time, slow learner player. there has always been a guitar in the house and both my sons play as a result. I, however and a different case. Finally i can begin to get over the hump that has stopped me so many times before. i thank you and look forward to seeing you every time i choose another song i have long heard and never have been able to learn. Thank you very much
Love you man Marty. Just spent my morning learning this beautiful song with you! Makes me think of my dad, kinda emotional. Your singing made me happy 😂
I’ve been following you for years now and I play songs I never thought I would be able too. Your friendly way explaining the lesson goes a long way. Thanks Marty🎸
Marty the way you use the chord names to figure out the rhythm and changes/timing here is exactly how it’s done! I do it this way as well, I was actually taught this way. It’s a great way to memorize the chords in the song as well as the timing! You’re a great teacher Marty! Keep up the great work! This is the way songs are learned.
Hey Marty , I started playing in February 2017 , and I didn't know what I was doing . When I started watching and listening to you in May 2017 all the notes and chords became much more visible to my ears and mind. So Thankful bro , please keep it up ! ☮👍
Great job Marty,you are are a great teacher with extensive chord and music theory knowledge. So when I want to learn a song I turn to you. To get a different point of view listen to James James or shut up and play although shut up and play is for advanced players you might get some polish. Marty you're the best to learn.
Love this. I have seen Tull 3,4 times in my life. I play guitar and I am in my 60’s now. Fun to watch how to play videos. Keep up the good work. Our kids need to see this stuff.
One of the songs I used to sing on the street in another life love your lessons because you put your guitar up front and not your person. which is really cool.thanks
The comment was about how learning how to play guitar from a UA-cam video 'is hard'..as I'm waiting for the add too end and watch the lesson... Been watching Marty's lessons since I was like 13 🤣
Thanks Marty - almost forgot about this one!! Heard it when it first came out and always loved it - my older sister used to play after the gold rush and harvest all the time and since she passed over a few years ago this one takes me back and feels great. Thanks again!
Man, I really appreciate your style and teaching methods. I have dabbled in the guitar for 20 years and just running across your videos now. I would say I was mediocre at best but really enjoying your series and will keep watching! It's making a real difference for me as I have never been able to master the strumming or the intricate parts and you break them down so eloquently. Thanks for what you are doing and will definitely be continuing to be a subscribed fan!!!! Thanks!!!
Dude, Marty... I’ve seen 100 videos on how to play this song and no lie, yours is the most thorough but easiest to follow along to. I should stop looking elsewhere for song lessons and just go straight to you. If only you had more 70s-90s country gold lessons...
We love Marty , the best beginner teacher . You do need to talk or sing at what level you can while teaching to help with the timing . You sound good, I have heard you sing . You are a inspiration.
You've been so helpful in helping my teen daughter. Her suggestion is a graphic in the corner of the tabs as you play them. Keep up the great work, Marty.
I love this tutorial so so much . As I get older this song makes you feel so much . And the tutorial is so great even the mistake on the on take two teaches us to just play through it. Thank you for your honesty and brilliant way of teaching the old man ❤
im dum as a rock need to find a way to see the cords you are playing. slowed way down. please i so want to learn. 2016 was life changing for me had the biggest surgery anyone could ever go threw. im 1 of 3 people who ever had thier large artery replaced from 2 inches from my heart down both legs and the only surviver. have so much to be happy for but playing has always been a interest to me but not catching on dont understand why. but i have been watching you getting some of it but need to go in extra slow mode i cant see where my fingers should go. so sorry just excited to learn just need slow slow mode to see were my fingers should be
If you're still struggling trying to figure this out, here's my honest opinion. You need to start by learning how to play/finger a few basics chords properly on the guitar before you try to tackle a tune like this. The chords used in this song are C, F, G, Am, Em, D and a variation of the D used further up the neck to play the cool intro. Start by looking up how to play a proper C, F (simple version, not Bar Chord), G and D. Then practice each chord until you can get it to sound out properly on the guitar and can move between them without too much difficulty. I know it's more fun to jump right in and think you can just memorize a new song and start playing it, but if you don't at least have those basic chords down you will continue to struggle. Take the time and do this first and then start trying out some songs. Once these chords are in your 'muscle memory' you will find learning a new song much easier. Good luck!
Don't know if you're still at it but sounds like this tune is way above your skill level. Give yourself a chance to succeed by choosing something simpler or else you run the risk of your attempt to learn the instrument turning into a source of constant frustration. The key is finding simple enough tunes that you can play keeping the beat the whole way through, from start to finish, even if just "down strumming". You're not striving for perfection in execution here, you're laying the foundation you will build your house on. So, my advice to you? Try something like Bob Dylan's " Knockin' on heaven's door". 15 minutes a day will build up your fingertips and rythmic skills way better and faster than if you only play 1hr on Saturday's...After 6 months of this you won't be thinking you are dum...you'll have realized that you weren't giving yourself the proper framework to succeed and will be eating up new songs like the rest of us...Cheers!
Started to show my grandson your Beginners lessons he really enjoys them you have an easy way with Tutorials and a light hearted way Of showing how to learn songs . Keep it up
what would we do without Marty S... he is a natural born teacher with such patience and clarity....thanks again Marty for all the great songs you have taught this YT community.... hope all is well and you have a joyous holiday season.... I know the world has gone to madness but you help to bring us back to our spirit .... Peace, Hope & Respect
Marty is the guitar teacher god ... About 10 years ago , I bought an old guitar, watched some marty videos,, and here I am today, still watching his stuff , playing everything I hear
I took guitar lessons 40 years ago and learned a few chords, then somehow I was made the drummer in our garage band. Years later my son played piano then guitar at a VERY high level and continues with music as he attends The University of Oregon. SO, my point is I missed the sound of his guitar in the house so I picked a couple up while thrifting. I was blown away by the fact I actually knew all of the chords I had learned (some better than others). BUT, I've gone through a few of your videos here and can't tell you how presentable and easy you've made it for folks like me. I know these are beginner songs, but I'm a rockstar in my house. LOL. Thanks, Marty! BTW - My son and I used to hang at Norm's and I'm friends with Nick! Okay, I'm just all excited, here. LOL
in 6 months I went from not being able to play a single note to being able to sit down and jam out over 7 songs with confidence. all thanks to you Marty, your way of teaching is one of a kind. I've got a few other people learning from you now as well. congrats on the success. glad ya got your own channel!!
i have watched a lot of 'How to" on guitar and i find that your lessons and direction is by far the best out there. Straight forward and easy to follow. Thanks for the lessons and i will be watching many more to come.
I have to say I’ve always wanted to learn the guitar especially Neil young songs.I now play almost every night for an hour or so. I have learned a lot this past year watching your videos . Thanks for taking the time.
Hi Marty thank you so much for all your great videos.. I've been playing since I was 13 stopped between age of 25 and 67 took it back up again at 68 and am now 69.. I write my own stuff mainly but am now starting to learn others songs for the first time and you are inspirational to this part of my journey which I thank you for.. I still hope to make a mark in the music industry.. never too late hopefully... I had a band at school with a guy called Henry Priestman.. he was a founding member of the Chiristians a pretty big band on Island Records in the late 80s.. biggest selling debut album at the time.. Henry left and now has a solo career.. he became the oldest person at age of 58 to get a new record contract and I'm aiming to take over his mantel at the age of 70.. anyway thank you for everything you do.. keep well and keep making great videos best David
Great job Marty! 20+ year guitar veteran and still come to your site when I need to learn a new tune or need a tune-up on a song I haven't played in a while. There's always more to learn!
Not a song I look up or a solo, or scale, or a chord that you don't have for me, always my 1st go to for a lesson in between lessons, thank you, got my son learning from you in between lessons now too, your always spot on to what his teacher is teaching him
Hello Marty, I miss the younger Marty when you had your first channel and you would record your lessons completely baked and twisted. It was special times and absolutely awesome. Love this channel and all you do, by the way Marty.... 🙂👍
wow I just wanted to say I been watching for a month and Ive made so much progress. more than the forty yerars scince I first picked up my dads guitar and fell in love. thanks alot keep up the good work.
Marty you are really doing a great job. Thankyou so much. Your lack of ego is so impressive and your explanations making seemingly difficult music less complicated, easier to understand. You deserve all the good luck in the world. Many people have enjoyed a better quality of life because you were able to help them become part of their favourite music. Respect.
Hey Marty. Thank you for this lesson. Ive been playing for about 11 years. Mostly noodling and learning bits and pieces with large gaps between study. Never complete songs. This is the first song I have learned from beginning to end in one sitting. A simple song yes, but simple complete instruction and I have the entire lesson down in 3 hours. Polishing needed, but inspired by this. Thank you. Ill join your channel and continue. Best regards my friend.
Always a big fan of your work. I especially love the way you use chord names to pronounce the timing of the changes. Great teaching point. That’s a big help for getting the timing in our minds. Thanks for everything you give to us. Take care brother.
Hey man... just want to tell you I love your tutorials... you break it down so it’s real easy and keep it fun... you’re my “go-to” when I want to learn a song... thanks bro
Marty. He's the man. Been watching and learning for years now. I think of a song I'd like to do, and sure enough Marty's done it, and can show me how to play it . What great joy and enjoyment Marty's lessons have brought to me, by making what I'd think impossible to play, easy enough for even me to do. Thank you Marty. Right on, ride on. And play on!!
Dude.. I'm Alex Skolnicks drummer in the trio. I'm learning guitar stuck at home in NYC and your vids are fecking awesome. You are an amazing teacher for learning how to play songs. Thank you.
This is the first song I ever learned to play the whole way through. Classic song. For me the key to this one is the strumming hand. The finger placement is easy, it’s all in the strumming hand.
Excellent. Just right amount of detail while keeping it simple and understandable. Other lessons on youtube get bogged down and separate left and right hands which makes it very hard to follow. Good job.
Hey Marti, after 25 year layoff I found your channel and have found it to be very very very helpful in getting me back to some of my original songs from the 70s and 80s and back in shape again
Yousician is wrong, Marty is the best way to learn and master the guitar. Luv u Marty. Keep rockin’.
Hail ya
No GuitarZeroToHero is
Marty is often wrong but whatever
Young song are gud to practice the f cord. Thro in a bar when just messin around or Play a Mustang Sally C7. to F bar. C7. G bar walk down F bar.

Same here. I think it's my guitar I am doing the hammer on but you can't hear it. I can do hammer ons on all the strings above the g string

You sound exactly like Jonah Hill
Edmond Keogh you think so? 😂😂
You've been so helpful in helping my teen daughter. Her suggestion is a
graphic in the corner of the tabs as you play them. Keep up the great work, Marty.
I only come here to hear Marty replace words with chords he lowkey goes off
I love this tutorial so so much . As I get older this song makes you feel so much . And the tutorial is so great even the mistake on the on take two teaches us to just play through it. Thank you for your honesty and brilliant way of teaching the old man ❤
im dum as a rock need to find a way to see the cords you are playing. slowed way down. please i so want to learn. 2016 was life changing for me had the biggest surgery anyone could ever go threw. im 1 of 3 people who ever had thier large artery replaced from 2 inches from my heart down both legs and the only surviver. have so much to be happy for but playing has always been a interest to me but not catching on dont understand why. but i have been watching you getting some of it but need to go in extra slow mode i cant see where my fingers should go. so sorry just excited to learn just need slow slow mode to see were my fingers should be
You can slow it down in the video settings.
If you're still struggling trying to figure this out, here's my honest opinion. You need to start by learning how to play/finger a few basics chords properly on the guitar before you try to tackle a tune like this. The chords used in this song are C, F, G, Am, Em, D and a variation of the D used further up the neck to play the cool intro. Start by looking up how to play a proper C, F (simple version, not Bar Chord), G and D. Then practice each chord until you can get it to sound out properly on the guitar and can move between them without too much difficulty. I know it's more fun to jump right in and think you can just memorize a new song and start playing it, but if you don't at least have those basic chords down you will continue to struggle. Take the time and do this first and then start trying out some songs. Once these chords are in your 'muscle memory' you will find learning a new song much easier. Good luck!
AK FOX good advice 👍
Michelle St . Laurent keep it going you will get it
Don't know if you're still at it but sounds like this tune is way above your skill level. Give yourself a chance to succeed by choosing something simpler or else you run the risk of your attempt to learn the instrument turning into a source of constant frustration. The key is finding simple enough tunes that you can play keeping the beat the whole way through, from start to finish, even if just "down strumming". You're not striving for perfection in execution here, you're laying the foundation you will build your house on. So, my advice to you? Try something like Bob Dylan's " Knockin' on heaven's door". 15 minutes a day will build up your fingertips and rythmic skills way better and faster than if you only play 1hr on Saturday's...After 6 months of this you won't be thinking you are dum...you'll have realized that you weren't giving yourself the proper framework to succeed and will be eating up new songs like the rest of us...Cheers!
Marty, thanks so much for making these lessons , not only fun, but concise and easy to follow. Your a great teacher!
It's a shame it's too high for most guys to sing.
@@MidwestFarmToys good plan, I'd be able to sing along to mariah carey 😂
Started to show my grandson your
Beginners lessons he really enjoys them you have an easy way with
Tutorials and a light hearted way
Of showing how to learn songs . Keep it up
what would we do without Marty S... he is a natural born teacher with such patience and clarity....thanks again Marty for all the great songs you have taught this YT community.... hope all is well and you have a joyous holiday season.... I know the world has gone to madness but you help to bring us back to our spirit .... Peace, Hope & Respect
Hey Marty I'm from Spain, only to say thank God there are people like you, I've understood everything, you're a crack.
Marty is the guitar teacher god ...
About 10 years ago , I bought an old guitar, watched some marty videos,, and here I am today, still watching his stuff , playing everything I hear
Marty breaks things down so well and I tell my friends how much I enjoy his lessons. well done Marty
I took guitar lessons 40 years ago and learned a few chords, then somehow I was made the drummer in our garage band. Years later my son played piano then guitar at a VERY high level and continues with music as he attends The University of Oregon. SO, my point is I missed the sound of his guitar in the house so I picked a couple up while thrifting. I was blown away by the fact I actually knew all of the chords I had learned (some better than others). BUT, I've gone through a few of your videos here and can't tell you how presentable and easy you've made it for folks like me. I know these are beginner songs, but I'm a rockstar in my house. LOL. Thanks, Marty! BTW - My son and I used to hang at Norm's and I'm friends with Nick! Okay, I'm just all excited, here. LOL
Man you’re just the best teacher on UA-cam.
These songs like needle and damage done. Wild horses old man. So many I've played for years and thanks for alto i didn't know. Great vids !!
in 6 months I went from not being able to play a single note to being able to sit down and jam out over 7 songs with confidence. all thanks to you Marty, your way of teaching is one of a kind. I've got a few other people learning from you now as well. congrats on the success. glad ya got your own channel!!
I really appreciate your support Jason! So much more NEW content coming right here to "MartyMusic" - Stay Tuned and thanks again!
Been playing 42 years just subscribed to learn what i can
i love Marty's content and have watched for years now, but i think its the non edited bloopers that make his tutorials the best.
My friend holds you in high reguard. This is the first time I've ever learned a song with you. The pace of progression is nice. Thanks mister!
i have watched a lot of 'How to" on guitar and i find that your lessons and direction is by far the best out there. Straight forward and easy to follow. Thanks for the lessons and i will be watching many more to come.
I have to say I’ve always wanted to learn the guitar especially Neil young songs.I now play almost every night for an hour or so. I have learned a lot this past year watching your videos . Thanks for taking the time.
Hi Marty thank you so much for all your great videos.. I've been playing since I was 13 stopped between age of 25 and 67 took it back up again at 68 and am now 69.. I write my own stuff mainly but am now starting to learn others songs for the first time and you are inspirational to this part of my journey which I thank you for.. I still hope to make a mark in the music industry.. never too late hopefully... I had a band at school with a guy called Henry Priestman.. he was a founding member of the Chiristians a pretty big band on Island Records in the late 80s.. biggest selling debut album at the time.. Henry left and now has a solo career.. he became the oldest person at age of 58 to get a new record contract and I'm aiming to take over his mantel at the age of 70.. anyway thank you for everything you do.. keep well and keep making great videos best David
Great job Marty! 20+ year guitar veteran and still come to your site when I need to learn a new tune or need a tune-up on a song I haven't played in a while. There's always more to learn!
You the man once again! Started playing about a month ago and learned my my hey hey, heart of gold, and now old man! Thanks Marty!
Marty's attitude is the absolute best in the world!
Not a song I look up or a solo, or scale, or a chord that you don't have for me, always my 1st go to for a lesson in between lessons, thank you, got my son learning from you in between lessons now too, your always spot on to what his teacher is teaching him
Hello Marty, I miss the younger Marty when you had your first channel and you would record your lessons completely baked and twisted. It was special times and absolutely awesome. Love this channel and all you do, by the way Marty.... 🙂👍
wow I just wanted to say I been watching for a month and Ive made so much progress. more than the forty yerars scince I first picked up my dads guitar and fell in love. thanks alot keep up the good work.
Your the best my friend. To give your time to people you don't know is something special.
Love the way you make all guitar lessons so easy Marty. Always look forward to your lessons for any song I’m thinking of trying to play.
Marty you are really doing a great job. Thankyou so much. Your lack of ego is so impressive and your explanations making seemingly difficult music less complicated, easier to understand. You deserve all the good luck in the world. Many people have enjoyed a better quality of life because you were able to help them become part of their favourite music. Respect.
Hey Marty. Thank you for this lesson. Ive been playing for about 11 years. Mostly noodling and learning bits and pieces with large gaps between study. Never complete songs. This is the first song I have learned from beginning to end in one sitting. A simple song yes, but simple complete instruction and I have the entire lesson down in 3 hours. Polishing needed, but inspired by this. Thank you. Ill join your channel and continue. Best regards my friend.
The best lesson on this song I've seen! Got the intro at last...
Whenever I have a question on how to play something Marty always simplifies it and darn it just sounds good.
Always a big fan of your work. I especially love the way you use chord names to pronounce the timing of the changes. Great teaching point. That’s a big help for getting the timing in our minds. Thanks for everything you give to us. Take care brother.
Hi! I'm from Germany. You are the best Teacher around the World.
Michael from Gera
Hey man... just want to tell you I love your tutorials... you break it down so it’s real easy and keep it fun... you’re my “go-to” when I want to learn a song... thanks bro
I'm trying to learn for my dad's birthday. Thanks, Marty. Rock on! This helped alot.
Lost my Father going on two years now and this song really resonates well, you really made my day Marty.
Thank you very much David. I'm glad to help. All my best!
God man i love this song so much. Speaks to me on another level. I'm really tryin to learn it THANK YOU MAN YOU ROCKKKKK!!!
Marty. He's the man. Been watching and learning for years now. I think of a song I'd like to do, and sure enough Marty's done it, and can show me how to play it . What great joy and enjoyment Marty's lessons have brought to me, by making what I'd think impossible to play, easy enough for even me to do. Thank you Marty. Right on, ride on. And play on!!
Dude.. I'm Alex Skolnicks drummer in the trio. I'm learning guitar stuck at home in NYC and your vids are fecking awesome. You are an amazing teacher for learning how to play songs. Thank you.
thats so fuckin sick
This is the first song I ever learned to play the whole way through. Classic song. For me the key to this one is the strumming hand. The finger placement is easy, it’s all in the strumming hand.
You are without a doubt the best teacher in your tutorials. Nice and slow and everything explained. Thank you so much.
Excellent. Just right amount of detail while keeping it simple and understandable. Other lessons on youtube get bogged down and separate left and right hands which makes it very hard to follow. Good job.
when I have a bad day, I sing along with this on my guitar, and it helps me get through difficult times.
I’m relatively new on guitar, but I just love Marty’s lessons! He has helped me out in many areas! Definitely one of my fave UA-camrs!
You rock! 🤟🏻🎸
Hey Marti, after 25 year layoff I found your channel and have found it to be very very very helpful in getting me back to some of my original songs from the 70s and 80s and back in shape again
