    The video script introduces five songs that can be played on acoustic guitar in open E tuning. It provides instructions on how to tune the guitar and play each song, along with strumming patterns and chord shapes. The songs include "Something in the Air" by Thunderclap Newman, "Big Yellow Taxi" by Joni Mitchell, "Don't it Always Seem to Go" by Joni Mitchell, "Can't Always Get What You Want" by The Rolling Stones, and "Jumpin' Jack Flash" by The Rolling Stones.
    00:00 - Video overview
    00:54 - Tune to Open E tuning from standard
    02:12 - Something in the Air
    05:06 - Big Yellow Taxi
    09:50 - Can’t Always Get What You Want
    13:29 - Jumpin Jack Flash
    18:47 - Gimme Shelter
    21:49 - Where to go from here
    Looking into how to tune the guitar to Open E and how the tuning offers advantages for playing the guitar, such as making bar chords easier & providing unique chord shapes.
    "Something in the Air" by Thunderclap Newman is a great song for beginners in open E tuning, with simple chords and a catchy strumming pattern.
    "Big Yellow Taxi" by Joni Mitchell introduces barre chords in open E tuning, allowing beginners to practice this technique as it just uses 1 finger!
    "Can't Always Get What You Want" by The Rolling Stones uses capo, giving players the opportunity to experiment with different sounds but the shapes are all the same
    "Jumpin' Jack Flash" by The Rolling Stones is a great intermediate challenge as the barring still uses just 1 finger for the chords but the other fingers are needed for quite big stretches
    "Gimme Shelter" by The Rolling Stones is an awesome way to end this video as it really showcases open E tuning & it's distinct sound!

    Very cool lesson ,on the jumping Jack flash The first two cords should have the B string always being open use the index and middle finger for 345 and 6 keep the B 0:01 open and ring finger on the E string keep the ring finger on the Estring for the first strum of the second cord, then bring everything down one step (no disrespect I seen this on another video from another gentleman a long time ago) rock on
