A fabulous song. Learn the chords and strumming patterns to this song as well as the lead fills that really bring it all together. - เพลง
The Bob Ross of guitar teaching. Worth watching even if you don't intend to learn to play. Just relax and enjoy the soothing sounds.
Thank you lane99 - really appreciate that!

I like when y'all put the chords on the screen.
Thank you Scott - glad it’s working for you. Cheers, Shane
First time viewer! Thanks for exactly getting how I approach songs as a basic player. Skipping hard chords, slowly building. Love the reassurance. As I’m sure you’ve told the everyone, it’s all about playing and singing a song. Don’t let lack of skill keep you from enjoying it … and before you know it, the skill will start to build. Just sing louder in the meantime.
Thanks for doing this song. I always loved it. Recently I heard Cat doing it with Chris Cornell and they really had the fills turned up. I went back and listened to the original and also another version from about 15 years ago. Those fills really make the song special.
For sure Susan. Thanks for that. Cheers! Shane
Just the best at explaining and demonstrating on all your videos and your passion for teaching shines through.
Thanks so much!!!
A big thank you Gary - what a great comment to receive first thing in the morning - really makes my day - Cheers!

Really love your teaching method. Thanks Shane. 😍
Gracias. Me la estoy aprendiendo me gusta esa cancion lindo sonido.
Esa cancion yo la escuchana a los 10 años en el bus de la escuela 🎉🎉😅😅
Brilliantly done (as is each one of your videos). It's such a delight to watch and learn. Your instruction format and style is probably the best I have seen on TH-cam. Thank you.
A big thank you for the encouraging words - much appreciated!
Shane
Thank you for the great tutorial. Always played this campfire, fully strumming, no noodles. Your "How to" is great, comprehensive and at arms reach for intermediate, albeit beginners. Now I can flourish the song with the fills. Again thanks.
Thanks ARP - great comment and much appreciated. Hope you really have fun bringing it up to the next level. Glad to have you here with us!

@@GuitarAtWork No, thank YOU. Albert
I've been working on playing this song for 5 months. It never sounded quite right to me. I obsessed over it many times. Your verse strumming suggestion is genius. Thank you. It sounds beautiful.
Just wanted to say I am learning a great deal and am very comfortable with your teaching and have excelled to a very cool level in my playing and confidence. Thank you for your time sir !
Thank you FJ - really happy to hear that - happy to have you here with us - Happy New Year!
Shane

Thank you Erdogan - all the best with it and happy to have you with us!

When I learned that song many years ago, like you I was taught to use a D7 as the 2nd chord. Recently, I was watching tutorials, and the teachers always used a D chord, and I also saw Cat Stevens himself do the same in a vintage video. It sounds good too, but I still prefer the D7. And I was glad to see you think the same as me. Same thing with the use of the Cmaj7.
In another TH-cam tutorial, the teacher use a Dm as the 2nd chord, it doesn't sound good at all. I will not name the guy...
On the issue of a D7 in that recording: With the layering of instruments on multitracks, there were plenty of guitars playing MULTIPLE chord inversions. I am pretty sure a seventh chord was ONE of them. After 4 years of music theory, my last professor drops the ultimate pearl of wisdom. Play what sounds good to YOU. :)
Great video love your teaching style
Thank you Randy - I really appreciate the comment - glad you are with us and hope you continue to enjoy the videos!
Shane
Ecellent tutorial thanks, I actually jumped here from your latest video about playing this song along as I want to learn to play it properly
That's so great - thank you Erika - you've got the right approach. Use this video to learn it and the new one to play along with once you know the song. Have fun with it! Shane
I really like your energy sir...#respect

Ty Shane ❤️ love Cat stevens your a awesome teacher ❤ Can you please do never been to spain...3 dog night thx
Thanks Robyn - always good to hear from you and much appreciated. All the best to you and great suggestions. Thanks! Shane
I love to play it many times. I also want you to play another song is "That's why you go away" singing by Michael learn to rock. Added by Patrum and Fingerstyle.
Love this .. very well laid out. I didn’t see the tabs and chords you are mentioning nor a link? Maybe missing something. However I am pretty sure there is a 3rd .. also during the chorus ..between the 2 passes .. after the C .. there is a bass type run on low E and A .. 3rd on E and open A or something?? Cheers
Desperately looking for a lesson on “99 Miles from LA” by Johnny Mathis. Too tough for me to work out!
👍👍👍
2:43 Start
Thanks Juan!
Shane
You'd be a good radio voice.
Just wondering if this song is key of A or key of C?
Awesome instruction ..Shane T you
Thank you Claude - happy to have you with us!

@@GuitarAtWork Thanks!
I really struggle to play a F chord. I play it like the c chord.
Thanks for the video. One question: why did you leave out the other fill?
Thanks Jacob - you're right - there is another fill - maybe I will update the video at some point - cheers!
Shane
@@GuitarAtWork Please do!!
Awesome job but you are missing a fill..lol It's done after he says you can't always get by just on a smile girl.(fill) (Also a different one).
Are you Canadian? I hear the accent when you say “out”.
Canuck all the way my friend! But….it’s actually YOU who has the accent. We still speak The Queen’s English up here.
