    I remember learning this song the first time you posted it, a few years ago. Here I am to give a big shout to you. The man who helped to accomplish one of my top 10 bucket list items: learning to play guitar. Thank you very much, Justin! I wish you many years of guitar fun in good health! Cheers. Rui Miranda

    • @DCfreak44411
      @DCfreak44411 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Ronan Mahony sucks no one tried helping you... anyway a good tip is to not play a Fmaj7 and do a Fmaj9- It only makes you move you fingers down one *search the chord, im not listing it

    • @stepan_nuts
      @stepan_nuts 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Have the same problem. And this method doesn't work :). I play Fmaj7 like Justin shows in video. But different sound. I think Justin changes pattern when playing from Fmaj9 to G.
      Have no problem when playing C to G.
      Can someone please give an advice?

    • @MrFrampo56
      @MrFrampo56 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Степан Авласенков There is no major 9th chord in the song. It’s an F add9. Add the 9th (2nd same thing) note in the scale (G) which is 3rd fret top E string. It’s really very simple.

    Justin you are my God and I'm finally (after 10 years), slowly learing to play guitar thanks to you. BUT (there is a BUT) the strumming pattern at the beginning of this video is not the same as the one you teach at the 8th minute! I saw it like... 8000 times (let's say i watched it consistently!🤣🤣🤣) it's just not the same!

  • @michaelwood3099
    @michaelwood3099 10 ปีที่แล้ว +17

    I think you have missed the main point of this song, the key is not so much the strum pattern but the lifting on and off of the middle finger while on C, and again the same with the index finger while on Am, which you hinted at briefly but really is the whole essence of the song.

    Cant work out the c to g could you write it in here

    • @JustinGuitarSongs
      @JustinGuitarSongs  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      On the C chord, your little finger is holding down the 1st string at fret 3 (note G). It stays there for a quick change to a 2 finger G chord and / or a 3 finger G sus4 chord. On both G chords, the 3rd finger mutes the 5th string.

    • @JustinGuitarSongs
      @JustinGuitarSongs  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Watch when Justin strums simply and counts the 1, 2, 3, 4 from about 3 minutes. It goes Fadd9 for 1, 2 then G for 3, 4 then it goes C for 1, 2 then G for 3, 4. Both G chords start on the count of 3 and last for two beats. The chord lasts half a bar.
      Hope that helps
