Life goal is to play this song with authority because it's so iconic. Great lesson.
Watched a half dozen of you’re videos so far and you’ve got to be one of the best guitar teachers on TH-cam or honestly anywhere..
Thank you so much and sorry I missed your message. Cheers! Shane
I've never seen anyone talk so fast, put out such a huge amount of detail...and still make it look do-able. That's quite a skill sir! Thanks.
This one will take me a lot of pause/rewinds lol.
Ha! Thanks for that - much appreciated and I hope you have fun with it. I’ve cut my caffeine intake in half. Cheers! Shane
Hi there, a huge thank you for taking time out to teach! A little background I am 68 and disabled from 2003 from a very rare nerve disease (Dr.s claim that it's one the most painful) I was bedridden for3 yrs. prior I had boxed for 8 yrs. and martial arts since I was a kid. I mentioned this because I am not a quitter. Taught myself to walk then it was time for my hands and arms. Pardon my terminology but I was also a rocker, stoner in attitude so I always wanted to learn the guitar, a nice lady gave me a "toy" guitar, that's what I call it. I found your site and what a ride it has been! I now can move all my fingers and arms, I play a little Zeppelin, and quite a few of your songs that you taught, you have been my teacher and friend thank you so very much! Sorry about the length of this note.
Loved reading that Pierre! Ain't it neat how a guitar can motivate and improve one's attitude! Play on brother!
Thank you for actually showing the chords BEHIND the solo -all the other TH-camrs duck out of this and it's not that obvious. Much appreciated,
Thanks Dale - very glad it helped you - happy to have you here! Happy New Year!
Shane
You're the best teacher on the internet hands down
A big thank you weednlogic - my best to you and glad to have you here with us. Cheers!
Shane
Do you mean hands down, up, up, down? J/K
You are a great teacher, it’s like I am in the room with you.
Thanks for that - fabulous comment. I appreciate! Shane
SHANE! First time I saw your bodhran! I've been playing for 25 years... When I was learning guitar, I got so frustrated with the DDUDU crap that I just went with my gut...and adopted tipper technique to strumming. In 5 minutes I was playing all the chords I had memorized!!
Bodhran. Great teacher! 😁
Thank you James - that drum helps a lot for sure. Same kind of action as strumming. My best to you and hope you're having fun with it all. Cheers, Shane
Much better quality then Marty ...music charts and details tips second to none.
Picking up were I left off 37yrz ago. Stumbled across your video, I had to subscribe! Just bought a used Ibanez electric, because at 57 starting all over again I don't want to die in a kitchen as a chef! I want to die in some old blues Club you are making learning all over again fun! Fantastic work! I don't care what anybody says I always called power chords!
this is one of those iconic classic rock songs. evryone guitarist should know this one. time to pull out my acoustic
Agreed - Cheers, Shane
By far the best version on TH-cam. Thank you sir!
Thanks Doug - greatly appreciated! Shane
THANK YOU, VERY MUCH!!!! FOR BREAKING THIS SONG DOWN, SO WE CAN BEGIN TO UNDERSTAND HOW TO PLAY THIS ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL SOUNDING TUNE!!!!!!!
Thank you! Cheers! Shane
I want to thank you very much she Ain I've been listening to you for some time now I play guitar I only play by ear but I've certainly learned a lot of stuff from you I'm learning all those diminished chords and sus chords I usually only played standard cords which I'm not a bad player lot of people told me I should even get out there before but you are really helping it along I make ityou you make it feel like wow I need to start all over again thanks again
That’s fabulous - thanks Marc! Shane
@Guitar At Work :
it's stuff of legend how long Tom Scholz took on his masterpiece but , just as impressive is the amount of time YOU must have taken translating it all into understandable logic for us less gifted mortals .
Thank You
Great presentation as always. Easy to grasp. Keep it the . Thanks!
Thanks Lewis - my best to you! Shane
17:16 Don't throw you back out trying that !!! LOL Great job Shane
I love how you show the fingers movement from one cord to another. I usually have to work these things out on my own. Thank you sir for an excellent video.
Very glad it works for you - enjoy! Shane
thanks- I like how you go fast for us that know the chords and guitar.
love your teaching
Thanks Dave - much appreciate the comment and very glad to have you here with us - Happy New Year!
Shane
Dude, you are so badass. I have been learning so much! You literally think of EVERYTHING in your lessons. Can you please do some Jewel videos? Hello from California!
Thank you Sunshine! Shane
How could you not love Boston?
Thank you!...always got tripped up on the picking!
As a fellow Canadian growing up in the 70’s there was a ton of great bands around and great songs filled the airwaves so naturally when I came across your TH-cam channel I was hooked! Love your teaching style, love the song selection and the Canadian content, from BTO to The Tragically Hip! A huge fan from The Dirty Shwa! 👍🎸🇨🇦
Thank you Gerald - really great to hear that. Happy to have you with us and greetings from the Nation's Capital. Cheers!
Shane

Thank you Sandi - really appreciate it and very glad it has helped you - glad to have you with us here!
Shane
I recommend fore this lesson ,try SHUT&PLAY site, you!ll be surprise for the lesson of this song.
I've always known this was an amazing song, ever since I first heard it way back in '76, but learning it has given me an even deeper appreciation for it's awesome structure! I just love what they did with it! It just **fits** if you know what I mean. Thanks for taking us through it. Definitely adding it to my list of songs I want to learn. 🙂
It's not easy , I'm doing it in manageable chunks , but the pleasure ( and smile ) you get from each mastered part really is immeasurable . Stick at it . Small steps . Nothing really worth having comes easy - If you bite off too big a chunk of steak and try to eat it , it will choke you .Small bites are waaaaay more enjoyable . More than a mouthful ... 😉
Awesome Tutorial!!!!
Great song ,so eloquently explained as always Shane...thanks again and stay well my friend.
Brilliant lesson, so easy to follow, you're really good, love your videos
Shane, you make things seem so easy. thanks for that.

Great song
Sure is Sam - hope you have fun with this one and glad to have you with us!
Shane
Thanks a lot for this lesson. Its always suprising to see how a common line as D - C9 - G can sound when played and emphasized perfectly.
Thank you Detlef - good to hear from you! 3 great chords for sure.
Cheers!
Shane
Subscribing now! You are a 'keeper' for sure. Best tutorial on this song that I have found. Clarified what others didn't. Brought my understanding to a new level, esp on that tricky rhythm. This definitely will improve my playing. I've been playing two and a half years. Namaste..
Thank you Elisabeth - a really great comment to receive - very glad to have you with us!
Shane
Very good. Thank You Sir.
Thank you Christopher - glad you enjoyed it and happy to have you with us - Happy New Year!

great choice!
Thank you Stonz - always good to hear from you. Hope it's all going well. Cheers!
Shane
Love your Taylor, hopefully I'll get mine soon👌
Thank you Dennis - you will love yours for sure.
Shane
Awesome. I bet you could do a great guitar arrangement on Same Old Lang Syne by Dan Fogelberg. That melody line is to die for. A terrific ballad probably everyone can relate to. It’s more of a piano song but you have a such a gift for emulating the piano pieces on guitar. Can’t believe Fogleberg was taken from us at only age 56 to prostate cancer. I survived it but I feel guilty-just imagine what other incredible songs he would have written if he was still around.
Thanks for that, Cheers, Shane
I just watched it on exercise bike (the “think” method). Now time to get the guitar and see what happens! This is a grail song for me = high school memories...
Thanks Shane! Excellent choice (kinda as usual)
Thank you Jake - always good to hear from you - hope all is well - Cheers!
Shane
Superb Shane, as ever
Thank you Tim - always great to hear from you - hope you are having fun with it!
Shane
DEADLY LESSON --- EVERYBODY LOVED IT ...
Thank you Jose - my very best to you
I subscribed to your site. Starting guitar at about 15 years old. Got married at 21 had kids and didn't continue until lately. So I am really at a beginner level. Thank you for your video. Now I am 59 my kids are not here anymore so I am so ready to learn how to play again. I know I can play this song with practice. Thank you very much.
Thank you Fernando - very happy to have you here with us. Hope you have fun with it!

Killer lesson, love this song and tutorial. I would like to request “San Fransico Bay Blues” by Eric Clapton if possible in the future
Thank you Louis - much appreciate your encouragement. Great song suggestion. Stay tuned!
Shane
Nice !!!

Guitar At Work
Missing our lessons ....I’m always open on guitar. 😎
Thanks for that one. Brilliant lesson as always. May I suggest " That'll be the day"? Thanks a bunch.
Thank you Jay - much appreciated. Great song suggestion. Cheers!
Shane
That Taylor is fantastic ! It's out of my price range for sure. I've got a 150 and a214ce koa deluxe but they don't sound like that. Thanks for the lesson also.
Thanks Steve - Taylor makes great stuff for sure. Cheers!
Shane
Thanks for this! I can't wait to impress my friend with this. He's a huge Boston fan and I hope i don't butcher it too badly...
Thanks Jason - glad to hear that! Hope you have fun with it. Cheers!
Shane
Thanks
Enjoy Eddy. Thank you! Shane
You should know that my Notification bell has come unticked I didn't do that. Before of youtubes shenanigans and remind your subbers to make sure their bells still clicked. I have heard this is acommon on channels. Awesome song to cover man. Ive been taking a break from guitar because of the carpal pain it flares up now and then.
Great tip ArmaGuyz - thank you for that. Hope all is well - Cheers!
Shane
If your looking for a song to do ive been trying id love to change the world by ten years after i just can get the picking and that b7 cord look forward to learning with some of these videos thanks
Thanks for that - great suggestion. Cheers, Shane
Excelente
Thank you Jose - much appreciated!
Shane
This guy is a cool cat! Gonna start on this song now!!
Thank you Justin - hope you are having fun with it and happy to have you here with us. Cheers!
Shane
Guitar At Work yes sir! Great lesson. Still on it! Very catchy opening! Thanks again!
You are the best guitar teacher on TH-cam by far!!! Thank you so much really. Is it possible to make a video on how to play Between the Bars by Elliot Smith (finger picking style)? That would be awesome! :-)
Thank you azadeh - I really appreciate your encouragement - glad to have you with us here and great song suggestion!
Shane
Try SHUTUP&PLAY site.
Great lesson, used to see Boston play in the bars on Cape Cod before they were famous. They would blow those small venues out!
Any suggestions on how to loosen the right hand strum up and build that fast, loose rhythm style. I’m tight and cannot seem to get it. Part of the problem is the pick slipping and therefore a death grip to keep it in place. I know quite a few people with the same problem. Any help would be great.
Whoa Nellie that’s a tough one
