This is the first song I ever worked on, and to this day I work on it nearly every time I pick up my guitar. There’s so much variation in how you can play it, it’s always fun and interesting. Can be quite a challenge depending on what you wanna do with it.
loved this lesson Kevin! I really like the relaxed version you played - sounds real nice. Question: what picks does Maggie like the best? I'd go with the medium myself lol! Thanks for another great lesson - you made this song sound so flowing and it is actually relaxing .. nice job
It didn't even take me 30 seconds to like it. Some people have this endearing vibe about them & with the family's involvement - truly, a Simple Man. Loved the lesson!
I don't understand it some days I can barely get anything to come out the guitar and then some days I sit down and play the song flawlessly within a couple hours
I watched this a while back, and regret not leaving a comment. This is a fantastic lesson, and you have a great teaching style. I'm glad it popped back up on my YT feed. Thank you. GT
This was the very best lesson I found! I love the way you teach this song. Especially calling out the string for the last riff. Thank you so much. I am only a beginner but I was able to follow. Thank you!!
Wonderful lesson Kevin. I’m not that familiar with their songs but the intermediate picking pattern looks like a fun challenge, or even a warm up exercise. Thanks!
I’m no expert but at around 3:50 after explaining the strum missing beat two you’re playing DDDDU or that’s what it looks n sounds like .. sorry to be pedantic as it sounds good anyway
I love this lesson Kevin but I was having the same problem. I just could not hear that missing second strum ; so I finally went to the comments to see if anybody had the same issue. Glad to find the answer. And it sounds great with DDDU.
😂stressing me out too. But how do you tune down? Do you have to re-tune guitar strings to diff notes? Mmm probably but how do you know what to change them too, guess by ear maybe or is there a quick fix 😅 tkx u all xx
I'm just about to tackle this song. I'm fairly new at guitar, but I love your breakdown. And your patience. You have a good singing voice for this song. I subscribed 😊
Thank you! I live my life on this song! I lost my house! In a house fire! I lost everything! I did save my pets and my life! It's been a struggle ! I've had to give up my playing due to the out come! But to hear you! U have reminded me on how to play again! May God bless you and your family! Please keep in touch! U r my friend! Please keep in touch!!!
Brilliant way of teaching a relatively complex picking pattern that requires hand and eye coordination. I would offer the best tutorial for beginners and intermediate players on TH-cam for this song. I am the the latter, and learned the song in 20 minutes following your clear easy to understand explanations. Just became a subscriber. 👍👍
It's a great song to learn and if you listen to the Scorpions "Always Somewhere ",you'll find them almost identical. I start playing one and end up playing the other. 😊

Put your capo on the first fret, then tune it standard. Take the capo off your tuned in.
Thanks for the tip!

Thanks so much! Such kind words and I am happy to help. Maggie prefers thin- easier to chew…

Wow thanks! Your comment has made my day! Thanks for your support!

That happens. It’s important to play a little a day because it all stacks up and then it clicks and it’s great!

Hi Kevin, I really appreciate your lessons and specifically how you offer 3 progressive ways to play them. I really like that!

You are welcome
You sound great playing and do a great job sharing your lessons! Thank you!!!
Thank you kindly!
Video idea for you: how to tune your guitar down a half step, lol
I’m no expert but at around 3:50 after explaining the strum missing beat two you’re playing DDDDU or that’s what it looks n sounds like .. sorry to be pedantic as it sounds good anyway
Nice catch :)
Sorry Kevin I was just struggling to get my strumming to sound like yours lol
I love this lesson Kevin but I was having the same problem. I just could not hear that missing second strum ; so I finally went to the comments to see if anybody had the same issue. Glad to find the answer. And it sounds great with DDDU.

Lol. You will need to use a tuner and tune all the strings down 1/2 step. So Eb Ab Db and so on.
