How To Play The Seeker On Guitar | The Who Guitar Lesson + Tutorial + TABS
In this rock guitar lesson you'll learn how to play "The Seeker" as recorded by the Who on guitar. This song is in the key of A, and with traditional Pete Townshend guitar style he uses some quick 16th-note rhythms as he changes between standard open position guitar chords. I'll show you how to play the whole song from top to bottom and when you're done with this tutorial you'll have everything you need to play right along with the original recording!
Let's break it down!

🎤Lyrics:
I've looked under chairs
I've looked under tables
I've tried to find the key
To fifty million fables
They call me The Seeker
I've been searching low and high
I won't get to get what I'm after
Till the day I die
I asked Bobby Dylan
I asked The Beatles
I asked Timothy Leary
But he couldn't help me either
They call me The Seeker
I've been searching low and high
I won't get to get what I'm after
Till the day I die
People tend to hate me
'Cause I never smile
As I ransack their homes
They want to shake my hand
Focusing on nowhere
Investigating miles
I'm a seeker
I'm a really desperate man
I won't get to get what I'm after
Till the day I die
I learned how to raise my voice in anger
Yeah, but look at my face, ain't this a smile?
I'm happy when life's good
And when it's bad I cry
I've got values but I don't know how or why
I'm looking for me
You're looking for you
We're looking in at other
And we don't know what to do
They call me The Seeker
I've been searching low and high
I won't get to get what I'm after
Till the day I die
I won't get to get what I'm after
Till the day I die

Excellent tutorial - and killer tone like the original. What’s your setup?

ONE THING that I have learned, in trying to teach myself guitar, and trying to learn a song, note for note, through tabs, is >>>
THAT ONCE I have learned the song and get it down, note for note, according to the tabs, is >>>
I END up putting my own little twist to the song anyways, when I am in the groove and feeling my own VIBES kicking in.
THIS IS SUCH a great song.

Hey John
My name is Paul. I am a very late starting guitarist 57, who picks up little lessons on internet.
when I clicked on a "seeker" lesson , what did my Scottish , Paul John MacLennan , ears hear but you introducing yourself as John MacLennan !
My very first encounter with an exact spelling namesake !
Hello kinsman !
How about you ?
You can email me direct if you want to

[@sper61tube]

really great and accurate! thanks!

[@samuelfawley646]

I love this Who song! Since the opening intro of every CSI show uses a song by The Who, if they ever did like CSI San Francisco, CSI LA, CSI Seattle, or even a CSI Boston, they should use this Who song The Seeker because the CSI person is always seeking answers of whodunit. Therefore the CSI person is The Seeker.

Very cool less I may have to try. Teles can do it all. It sounds great with distortion.

[@stratocasterbob]

Hi Jon, great lesson! I'm looking for a high quality backing track. Do you have one for The Seeker?

Super et le solo svp?

[@matthewpuziss5347]

It looks like you’re playing Dsus to D in your intro but in the lesson you teach it as G to D. Please straighten me out if I’m wrong.

[@carolineperesdossantos8155]

hi what tuning did you use? it is possible to play with the standard tuning

[@jonmaclennan]

The tuning on this is EADGBE just standard. You can get my neat PDF handouts here: bit.ly/2XoPV74

[@carolineperesdossantos8155]

thanks

[@williamthompson9706]

For us beginners it would be nice to breakdown in detail the chords, the F and C

[@mojoloony1073]

Maybe you'll find the answer on internet ?
