    Eric, thanks for what I consider a tribute to the man every country star wants to sound like. My Grandson, he's 9, is at this moment watching you and learning the play what we agree is the greatest country song ever written. Thanks for sharing your gift.

      You are so welcome Carl and so sweet that your little guy is learning to play the Possum's greatest hit! He was loved by all and here in Nashville considered a Legend and missed by all. There will never be another :(
      Be blessed my friend & stay in touch.

      Carl P. Mayfield agreed,he's been my favorite since I was a little boy,my youngest daughter is 7 now but when she was 4 she would always say George Jones is my favorite,and she missed him. Randy Travis would be my next top guy.

    I like that finger picking with the alternating base notes. Also like the idea of sliding that capo up a fret to change the key. Excellent lesson.

    Thank you very much. I'm very much intermediate/expert but I always look up songs I like. I almost can't deny that this may be one of the best if not the very best country song ever written. I enjoyed your teaching method and how you say "sorry george" while singing... You sound great, really but it aint George... Well played my man.

    @GaryBook 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    I agree, the best country song ever. In videos of George Jones playing it, I see he has a capo on the third fret. Does he do it in a different key or play the chords your playing but with different chords with it capoed but still plays G C D?

    @robbi1b1 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    hi, took note of what you said about george using the capo to change key, i have just watched a few videos of george, and in some he plays the whole song with the capo on 2nd fret, in key of d (playing c, f, and g shapes), in another he starts with capo on 1, plays the c shapes, and moves the capo up 1 as you showed, and in another video he has capo on 2, and plays g shapes, seems to change his key a lot, suppose it depended on his voice on the day, his band must have loved him !

    • @yourguitarsage
      @yourguitarsage  10 ปีที่แล้ว

    Nice reminder. Thank you. For an even easier version play the Johnny Cash version - just strum E/A/B open chords with no key change.

  • @icn2u2
    @icn2u2 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Love how this sounds but I cannot quite make out the picking pattern. You never actually said what strings and what order you are picking.

    • @jinglecat3678
      @jinglecat3678 ปีที่แล้ว

      The nice thing about finger picking is you can kind of use any pattern interchangeably

    @tatianazihindula8762 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    picking pattern confuses me as i can't see well by the fact that you didn't zoom in your hands while picking. sounds good but i am unable to do it. could you please help me with the number of strings you picked for each chord? thanks

    • @Gutslinger
      @Gutslinger 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      T. Z. I believe it's (6, 3, 2&1 at the same time, 3, 4, 3, 2&1, 3, then repeat) for the G chord. (5, 3, 2&1, 3, 6, 3, 2&1, 3, then repeat) for the C chord. (5, 3, 2&1, 3, 4, 3, 2&1, 3, then repeat) for the D chord.. Just recognize that you're repeating the (3, 2&1, 3) picking pattern and altering your base notes.

  • @DavidSmith-xh5ou
    @DavidSmith-xh5ou 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    What do you mean 5th string ? It looks like you are hitting 6th and 4th strings and do some extra picking on 1st through 3rd strings .Sounds great but either your very confused on your instructions or I am confused any way thanks really appreciate people like yourself that are willing to help others and for the lesson just wish it was more clearly done especially for beginners

    • @maddy_daddy5292
      @maddy_daddy5292 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      joe yancey I'm sure it's just going to be some of your basic guitar chords like either C G D, or a b and B&E. Not to mention I'm pretty positive you can go on f****** TH-cam and ask for the cords and get it sent right to your goddamn screen!

  • @bsquared61
    @bsquared61 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great song! Thanks for sharing this. However, when I watch George play this he's using different chords. Capo @ 2, E, A (A7), and B7 ??? He does do the capo switch to the third fret... In uTube vid CYQViYm92hg for instance...

    I almost agree. 2nd best country song, after "A Boy Named Sue". "As the yeaurhss went slowly by..." great set up for the heart break. I remember the day I realized what "First time I'd seen him smile in yeeeaaauurrhhhs" really meant. I thought the guy had finally grew a pair, then..."Why'd they place a wreath upon his door?...that must be some southern thing when they have a "Git over her" party. Then "And soon they'll carry him away..." BAM OHMIGOD....HE LOVED HER TIL HE DIED!!!
