    Nice cover. And I hate to nitpick, but the line is "hope you have a lot of nice to wear"- not clothes.

    • @davemaclive
      @davemaclive 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Well spotted, You're paying attention, I like that! I think you mean "nice things to wear" However I'm sure that in the many songs that I sing I don't always use the written words. I see that the writers themselves often change the published lyrics. It's like singing different notes of a song. You don't have to be rigid, so I certainly try not to copy a song exactly, words, melody, the actual version of a song. Some famous versions of original songs leave out whole verses. But thanks for your thoughts and I hope you'll keep watching and listening.

    I already caught your knocken on heavens door the other day, loved it, but was frustrated because you wouldn't say what chords you were playing, talking most about strumming. Now again I seen this great Bee Gees hit I always wanted to learn, but you barely mentioned a couple of chords. The rest you teach is fantastic! Thanks, but I get to frustrated trying to learn a song without the chords to subscribe. 😢

      @josephcovino9697 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @davemaclive Thank you for responding. Sure a tab would be OK, but if you don't say the chord as you go , it should run along the top of the screen if it's not in the tab. Like, G, D, C add9, G, D, A m, G
