There's a book called Guitar Codebreaker Unlocked, and it teaches everything about playing guitar, from essential skills to advanced techniques. It’s perfect for all levels
Why do people dislike? Very clear and easy tutorial and you keep it short which is good because you're not spending 15 mins on a vid tutorial of a few chords. Keep it up
I cant see your fingers and if I wasn't a beginner I would know what an e minor is , well got to got to another site to find out how to play it . Sry later due
@whaler The tabs for the chords are detailed top right of the video for people to see if you don’t know the fingering for the chord... i consider myself a clueless novice and noticed that 🤔

I come back to this after 7 years, this was one of the first songs I learned on the guitar, I remember watching this and trying to play this, and I was so proud of myself when I finally was able to play it, how time flys, it feels just like yesterday I was just starting playing guitar and watching this video.
Awh, I’m looking back at this, and this was the first full song I learnt to play on the guitar that got me interested and I kept playing. I love the instrument now and I really like just sitting down and being able to play what you feel. Thanks so much 🥺
When the night has come And the land is dark And the moon is the only light we'll see No I won't be afraid, no I won't be afraid Just as long as you stand, stand by me So darlin', darlin', stand by me, oh stand by me Oh stand by me, stand by me If the sky that we look upon Should tumble and fall Or the mountains should crumble to the sea I won't cry, I won't cry, no I won't shed a tear Just as long as you stand, stand by me And darlin', darlin', stand by me, oh stand by me Oh stand now by me, stand by me, stand by me-e, yeah And darlin', darlin', stand by me, oh stand by me Oh, stand now by me, stand by me, stand by me-e, yeah Whenever you're in trouble won't you stand by me, oh now now stand by me Oh stand by me, stand by me Oh stand by me, stand by me
Bim Bims there are some really good videos on TH-cam about learning to sing and play at the same time. I've watched a few but decided I need to work on my guitar skills a bit more before attempting it.
One way I learned to strum and sing (on ukulele because the guitars my father has are to large for me) was to sing the song a little then just strum and when I want to sing and strum I slow down my strumming and look at like lyrics with chords online and see when and what To play/sing certain things idk if this makes sense? But long story short just know the lyrics and know the chords and strumming and start of singing and playing slow and try to pick up the pace slowly and then try again slow and pick up the pace For ukulele I had to do this to play riptide because the strumming and rhythm was different than the vocal rhythm
This is so much easier and more in depth while at the same time simpler than I think any other “beginner” video out there. Seen so many that don’t or only briefly go over strum pattern and blow through sections really quick.
***** Awesome, congrats on the fast success. Many more lessons are on the way, and definitely subscribe to my blog, freephillyguitarlessons.com for more lessons and guidance. Thanks a ton. -Rob
swiftlessons your awsome and you should put up like a thing that represents the chords cause sometimes I get mixed up and I will be playing a completely different song because of I'm placing my fingers in wrong fret please reply 😃
This is the video that helped me actually start playing guitar. Made me believe that i can do it and i did. It was 3 years ago and now i am able to play guitar quite better than i used to. Great and simple beginnings leads to success. I can't thank this man enough for this!
@@gfuelsoccermom5307 You want to learn to finger both G majors...One way has index finger and middle,and other middle finger and ring finger Both are so important because most famous songs use both but one is better for versatility and pull off's..The forming with index finger and middle fing,your pinky and ring finger depress both bottom strings(G,E)Strings)while other form your middle finger does what your index finger did in other manner to form.What I mean,the other form your middle finger is on A string and middle on Low E top string next fret and pinky all down on bottom string.Type in "Both way's to form G Major"... The versatile way your middle finger drops down to pull off (pop)D string for so many awesome songs...MUST learn to form both from start..(Tequila Sunrise,Like a Rock,Take it easy,so many)
I've memorized each chord and practiced them one by one. Then i've practiced strumming alone. It's okay to pause during changing chords at first. Your fingers will get used to it due time. Then i've tried singing one sentence for the each chord slowly, like the song is in a slow motion. It really helps and it builds up your confidence when you achieve little things. Try working with your favourite songs too. I started learning just for the sake of learning to play a specific song haha. And there goes the saying, practice makes it better. (Not saying perfect since practice is eternal!)
Thank you!! I have tried to play guitar before but always gave up. After reading all the positive comments I decided to give this video a try. After about 45 minutes of practice I’d say I’m pretty decent! Learned 4 chords pretty fast. I’m going to keep practicing! Update: I’ve been practicing and now it sounds a lot smoother and I’m able to switch from chord to chord much quicker.
I have only found your videos now and I am kicking myself! I bought my guitar last year and have been trying to learn on my own, but some "beginners" songs and videos are just frustrating! I have been practicing this song for an hour and I can play it quite decently now, I am over the moon! Thank you so so much!!
wow this is simplified so well and explained to the point, anybody learning guitar would have no trouble with your lesson! wish you would've taught me when i was first learning! thanks man.
Thank you for doing beginner guitar lessons. This is the first song i played on the guitar after learning how to change chords watching this video two years back. it was a beautiful lesson and nice singing.
I've looked at quite a few different video lessons on how to play this song and I have to say yours is my favorite. No need to drag out any capos or strain to play some bar chord. Maybe some day I'll be ready to play the F#Maj7 or some other such thing but today is not that day.
i just wanna come back here and thank this man, 2 years ago i started learning and through this tutorial i was able to play my first ever song, and ever since i've been improving and can play almost any song i want now. Thank you.
петя крумс Haha, go get em brother! Thanks for watching glad you enjoyed the lesson. Something new will be up today, and then back to beginner friendly lessons next week. Be well. -Rob
Thank you man. I don't know what you did different but after a long time of trying I connected with this video and finally have been able to play a song for the first time on a guitar. I can now keep up with you on this video and have moved on to some of your other videos. You are a great instructor.
Thanks I just got my guitar earlier at 5 am and now I can play this. I'm impressed how I can do the g major, e minor thing by just looking at your fingers, I don't even know a thing about g majors and stuff. But here I am now, playing a guitar thanks to you!

Swift lessons are one of the channels that is worth to subscribe, as the teacher and the lessons are absolutely fantastic. With mr Rob's help from his lessons and also from my passion for music, i finally play the guitar. That you mr Rob for your help and your inspiration to keep on and trying. I wish you all the best. Greetings from Greece.
This actually saved my band grade because I put it off my project until the day it was due and I learned this in 15 minutes. Thank you so much swiftlessons!
@@2xzey I think the song needs a capo, and I dont have a capo because I just started learning guitar on may 8 2021. But I think I'll buy a capo if I get money somehow
Awesome! So quick and easy. Exactly what I was looking for. For right now I just want to focus on learning open chords to the point that they’re automatic under my fingers, and I’m definitely getting the hang of it, but I decided I should learn a new song every week instead of just doing drills. And you taught it so quick. I was able to play through it right away. I already knew these chords, and the song isn’t very complicated to play. Thanks so much for this.
Hey brother , I live your lessons and everything I know the last two years is made easier because of you . God bless you my friend keep up the great work my man. Jezz 🙏
I've just picked up the guitar and have been trying to learn an acoustic cover of my fiancé's favorite song and thought I'd see if I can manage to learn this to gain confidence. I'm happy to say with your help I learned this in less than 45 minutes. Thank you for helping me have a win. Youve started a lifelong guitar player.
I’ve been picking guitar on and off for years and typically struggle learning new songs as most tutorials aren’t as helpful as I’d like This was extremely beneficial for beginners! Thanks :)
Ur vids are brilliant m8 was flicking through you tube and saw a vid on how to play country roads by John Denver a song I’ve always wanted to learn to play but never found the time but I thought sod it after the way u showed me got it down perfectly coz of ur amazing teachings I’ve subscribed to your channel and will keep watching keep up the good work bud
This has been the song/tutorial that's got me going the best to start with. Thanks man. A few months ago I started with this song and got it after just a few hours. Now I've gave guitar learning a rest and just got started again, I gave this a watch. Found it really easy straight away, I'm just at where I left off. Going to get on to trickier songs now.
I went to many online lessons, and what is great is that he says the chords. and writes them down. I write it in my notebook. Other people will say "3 fret 2nd string then 4th fret 5th string blah blah confusion. Rob shows it in print. CLEARLY! I learned to read music in 3rd grade, as it was taught at my school, so his way is perfect for me to learn easily!thank you so much
thank you so much swiftlessons !!!! after 5 yrs finally removed pluto out of storage and out of all my fsiled attempts,,finally a lesson i can play...thank you so much! you are awesome! because of you i can sing and play at the same time.
I played guitar for 13 years straight 7 years old to 20. Now that I'm 30 I want to play again but I really want to sing this time around. I could never even talk and play so this is a huge struggle for me. Thank you for the video , it gives me a little bit of a direction to go with this.:)
Ive been following your lessons on and off and this was one of my first videos and loved the ooh now now reggae added in was my favorite.🦋🎸🙏you're doing awesome. I'm gonna stick with one teacher a while.thanks for all the lessons over a long time.
Prince Luie Thats great to hear, thanks for the feedback, so glad this video helped you to learn your first tune! Keep it going, tons of songs use this same chord progression!
Hey man! It’s been a while, but I remember how I learned it. I google searched a picture of all the basic guitar chords. I spent an hour learning every chord and memorizing them. Then, I just pieced the song together. Now, after 10 months, I can play at least 50 songs perfectly. Practice made perfect!!
Excellent Video! Excuse me for butting in, I would love your initial thoughts. Have you heard the talk about - Riddleagan Skillful Playing Remedy (erm, check it on google should be there)? It is a great exclusive guide for learning complex guitar chords and become a pro without the normal expense. Ive heard some great things about it and my best friend Jordan finally got astronomical results with it.
lI have been doing this guitar challenge but the tunes in between the exercises have been so difficult to get the head around. So, I needed this one, refreshing! I am so slow with the chord changes too so I loved this one especially with the singing as well - thanks Mr Love Songs.
@@swiftlessons You have really good grammar XD do you do grammar lessons?. Jk but fr I just got a guitar for Christmas trying to learn it so thanks if u have tips that would be lovely!
Useful! I would suggest however that in addition to the chord notation you displayed (like Cmaj- x32010) you also add an actual diagram to it. Why? Because morons like me end up Googling the "code" thinking it's some kind of special reference number for the chord. So yeah... I did that...
***** Sometimes I do feature diagrams that I have pre-photoshopped. It takes extra time, and can really slows down the upload speed from imovie. One thing I will point out, is that you took it as a learning opportunity and now you can use that skill in my future videos where I didn't have time for more polished annotations. Thanks for the advice, soon I hope to have better quality graphics on all my vids. -Rob
Scarabmex haha sometimes...I have my moments. Thanks so much for watching and offering some positive feedback. I'll be getting back to more videos in a few days. Check back again soon. -Rob
The only thing i did correctly is sing the lyrics..i really suck lol great video though! ;)..im definitely getting back to it once i seriously try to learn how to play
Those are the same chords for "last kiss-pearl jam" the strumming for it is: DDU UDU And Everytime you finished the pattern above you switch the chords in to same order as in the video and repeat the pattern.🤠👌

Ur vids are brilliant m8 was flicking through you tube and saw a vid on how to play country roads by John Denver a song I’ve always wanted to learn to play but never found the time but I thought sod it after the way u showed me got it down perfectly coz of ur amazing teachings I’ve subscribed to your channel and will keep watching keep up the good work bud
Hey Paul, thank you for all the positive feedback and the sub, I’m so glad that you are appreciating my teaching style!

Don't use their names in nonsense things
This has been the song/tutorial that's got me going the best to start with. Thanks man. A few months ago I started with this song and got it after just a few hours. Now I've gave guitar learning a rest and just got started again, I gave this a watch. Found it really easy straight away, I'm just at where I left off. Going to get on to trickier songs now.
I went to many online lessons, and what is great is that he says the chords. and writes them down. I write it in my notebook. Other people will say "3 fret 2nd string then 4th fret 5th string blah blah confusion. Rob shows it in print. CLEARLY! I learned to read music in 3rd grade, as it was taught at my school, so his way is perfect for me to learn easily!thank you so much
3rd grade lol.. i was still learning English in 3rd grade.
Do you have more of these easy (like really really easy)?:)
Anonieme TH-camr Hallelujah by jeff buckley is super easy
Thanks Hozier
thank you so much swiftlessons !!!! after 5 yrs finally removed pluto out of storage and out of all my fsiled attempts,,finally a lesson i can play...thank you so much! you are awesome! because of you i can sing and play at the same time.
Great video. I have have struggling to fine a beginner song that I like and was interested in learning and this has been perfect.
wow I actually completely learned the chords and tuning in under an hour! great video :)
this was the best tutorial i’ve seen for any song! i actually got it!
You Are Awesome Rob. I love that you sing along with he strumming to make it easier to learn
Very nice. Man, I wish I had my guitar at the office. Don't tell my boss that I'm surfing youtube at work :-)
deasttn It will go to my grave my friend. Thanks for watching, much more is on the way, in fact i'm breaking out the camera gear right at this moment!
Great lesson, very clear, and easy to follow. Thank you!
THIS IS MY FIRST SONG EVER, thank you so much!
I played guitar for 13 years straight 7 years old to 20. Now that I'm 30 I want to play again but I really want to sing this time around. I could never even talk and play so this is a huge struggle for me. Thank you for the video , it gives me a little bit of a direction to go with this.:)

WHY THEY NEVER SHOW TABS IN THE VIDEOS😭
Top Right corner dude
Dude you have to understand that this was 10 years ago...
@@Gloomy_Vibe04lmao
As well as having to understand it’s for beginners that might not know how to read those. It would be more editing for
No reason
Read the title. It's for beginners
This was like the first song I learned how to play a long time ago, thanks man!
That’s amazing, glad to be apart of your progress! -Rob
Ive been following your lessons on and off and this was one of my first videos and loved the ooh now now reggae added in was my favorite.🦋🎸🙏you're doing awesome. I'm gonna stick with one teacher a while.thanks for all the lessons over a long time.
Thank you Rob for the lesson all the way from Israel ❤️
I love this song and your lesson is greatly appreciated
thanks bro, that was easy. I have always loved this song, but never thought it would be my first song to play :)
Prince Luie Thats great to hear, thanks for the feedback, so glad this video helped you to learn your first tune! Keep it going, tons of songs use this same chord progression!
I’ve never played guitar before and this only took me 2 hours! Thanks bro
bro ive only ben playing guitar for a week but still cant figure this out, show me your ways lol.
Hey man! It’s been a while, but I remember how I learned it. I google searched a picture of all the basic guitar chords. I spent an hour learning every chord and memorizing them. Then, I just pieced the song together. Now, after 10 months, I can play at least 50 songs perfectly. Practice made perfect!!
Great lesson. Thank you
You had such a great voice 🥰
I’m learning guitar now and I follow a lot of your lessons :)
this is the only song ive been able to play on guitar. Im proud of myself
damn this was the best video i could find
So glad it did the trick! Many more lessons are on the way, both here and at patreon.com/swiftlessons. Keep picking! -Rob
Excellent Video! Excuse me for butting in, I would love your initial thoughts. Have you heard the talk about - Riddleagan Skillful Playing Remedy (erm, check it on google should be there)? It is a great exclusive guide for learning complex guitar chords and become a pro without the normal expense. Ive heard some great things about it and my best friend Jordan finally got astronomical results with it.
Dude ty! You made it so simple.
Holy Sh!t ... +9 million views since 2013. That's amazing!!
Yow you got a heart!!😍
Oh my god I love this, I feel like a fricking rockstar now hahaha thank yoooouuuu!
Gave me goosebumps when he started singing
lI have been doing this guitar challenge but the tunes in between the exercises have been so difficult to get the head around. So, I needed this one, refreshing! I am so slow with the chord changes too so I loved this one especially with the singing as well - thanks Mr Love Songs.
hey thanks for the video. It was really easy, your a good teacher. Have a great day!
+Crystol Bracey Thanks so much for taking the time to comment. Glad you are enjoying my work thus far. Much more to come!
Great to know, i'll be watching and waiting! Take care.
@@swiftlessons You have really good grammar XD do you do grammar lessons?. Jk but fr I just got a guitar for Christmas trying to learn it so thanks if u have tips that would be lovely!
Dude please do a cover of (I will follow you into the dark ) you are a great teacher man!!!
did anyone notice how good he sings!
yeah good, like wrong all the time. Damn thats was painful tu watch.
Ahh, how refreshing is going back to the basics. Simple to follow lesson, very well explained.
Me after playing this: “.......i did it...I FUCKING DID IT!”
*I HAVE THE POWWWWWEEEEEEEERRRRR!!*
Great lesson you made it really easy to learn thanks from England. Subscribed.
tezmt1 Glad to have you. Thanks for the support. -Rob
swiftlessons amazing works... keep them coming! :)
2:10 just leaving this here to practice
Excellent way to make learning chords fun by bringing in that chuck strum.
This guy looks like Jesus
Thank you
Are you?
Just another sinner...
Have you repented to thy lord?
Tried, nothing but static unfortunately... I'll keep working at it it though...on occasion I get a little reception haha
I had to spend an hour after watching this to remember how to actually play the guitar again...
Useful!
I would suggest however that in addition to the chord notation you displayed (like Cmaj- x32010) you also add an actual diagram to it. Why? Because morons like me end up Googling the "code" thinking it's some kind of special reference number for the chord. So yeah... I did that...
***** Sometimes I do feature diagrams that I have pre-photoshopped. It takes extra time, and can really slows down the upload speed from imovie. One thing I will point out, is that you took it as a learning opportunity and now you can use that skill in my future videos where I didn't have time for more polished annotations. Thanks for the advice, soon I hope to have better quality graphics on all my vids. -Rob
i love the way you explain everything, it was super simple and easy to learn, thank you again you just thought me my first song on a guitar
Damn, you sing really well
Scarabmex haha sometimes...I have my moments. Thanks so much for watching and offering some positive feedback. I'll be getting back to more videos in a few days. Check back again soon. -Rob
The only thing i did correctly is sing the lyrics..i really suck lol
great video though! ;)..im definitely getting back to it once i seriously try to learn how to play
Keep working *****, guitar requires a lot of commitment, and practice. But every second you devote to the instrument is progress. Best of luck. -Rob
swiftlessons Thank you! :) I'll keep at it!
I have the same problem :(
At least you guys can sing.. When I try I can see the neighbours across the street closing their windows
Now I can cry while playing and thinking of ffxv😢
such a great nAtural teacher thank you
Bendiciones 😚
Yeeah.. gracias por todo hermano 🤙🏽
En la jugada perrito
Chord transition from C to D always gets me ugh
Ikr!!
Those are the same chords for "last kiss-pearl jam" the strumming for it is:
DDU UDU
And Everytime you finished the pattern above you switch the chords in to same order as in the video and repeat the pattern.🤠👌
