Nice Sean. If anyone has a problem making D shape with pinky, ring and middle finger for the D/F# they can try regular D shape and wrap the thumb onto the F#. Probably not the greatest for long term use since it strains the forearm muscles doing that, but just a thought I had.
It's not exactly the way how he plays it but I think the way you play it sounds the best for acoustic and it's fun because it challenged me to do that f over a or whatever that hard long chord is
Thanks for the reply, the goal was to blend both guitar parts into 1 and show it was possible to play both at the same time, and still maintain the integrity of the song. He doesn’t play it this way live, probably because it’s difficult, so I posted this to show that it was possible, and fun. Enjoy !
Choco Loco I know a place that has some killer guitars just like this called Brushstroke Music. I think I saw you there one or two times. I might be able to get them to give you a good deal!
Hey man I know this this old but do you think you could come back to it and teach the mini soft rift almost, in the middle of the song. So far no one has taught it so far.
i tried to learn this 6 months ago...broke my guitar string while tryna learn it, i just got it fixed (dont ask why it took so long for me to get it fixed) now im gomna try to learn it again
I don't really know any good tips for it but it's fairly simple, just practice a bit. You have to slide your finger fast enough but also not too fast so that it sounds rushed and different to the song. Just make sure you're pressing on the string right and slide your finger I guess. Sorry this isn't very helpful I just don't really know any tips for this, there might be a video on TH-cam to help you though. Goodluck
At about 35 seconds I state that it’s tuned down a half step and trying to get as close as possible to the album (aka studio/record) version. This is for your fun and benefit . On the studio version he plays different guitar tracks and mixes them together, I thought it might be fun to show people that you can play the different parts together at the same time👍🏼
You’re going a bit fast so it’s harder to learn. It you could make another version of this video and just dumb it down for us slow folks that’d be amazing
Good question, I’ve got that a lot.. in studio, he recorded two different guitar parts and then mixed them together to give it a fuller sound. My goal was to blend the two parts into a playable version. Yes it is challenging, but fun once you get it. He doesn’t do that live because he’s also singing ( so is the crowd) and probably wants to keep it simple.

Dave Davenport thank you 🙏 I’m debating that dark hour idea 💡
Your guitar sounds great. What brand of strings do you use? I just broke one yesterday.
hoochrocks its a brand new Washburn guitar, they come stock. with D’Addario “exp” coated phosphor bronze

GuitarBoredom good deal, thank You 🙏
The jaunting at the beginning made me chortle so thank you for that as well as the tutorial
I havent watched the video yet but I love how you are so happy in the beginning of it.😁😁😁
Thank you for understanding to play the song at the very beginning of the video.
I would also sell my soul to play guitar like you
Thank You for the kind words,”don’t ever sell your soul, especially because you just need to practice, play, practice and enjoy” - Sean hall
THANK YOU FOR MENTIONING THE TUNING. I WAS WONDERING WHY IT STILL SOUNDED OFF
Best tutorial out there so far!! Noted down every word u said and i played my very first song!!!!
Rania Thank you for watching!
Thank you! Best guitar tutorial yet for this song!
Thank you for watching 🙏
capo on second fret with CGEF works good for the verses instead of tuning the guitar differently btw
gray it doesn’t work as well as down tuning, but do what you think is good 😊, I just do this for everyone’s enjoyment! God bless
@@SeanHallGuitar thank you! I'm fairly new at guitar and just found that easier, but I'll try down tuner when I can god bless you too
Wow this is great! Best tutorial i found here for this song :)
Bails Bails thank you 🙏
@@SeanHallGuitar your welcome! Keep doing what your doing man because its great!
Love this tutorial! I'm finnaly able to play this song! Thank you so much 💛💛💛
You're welcome!!
Alternative way: bar 8th, then 3rd, then E, then F
And for the chorus: bar 8th, then E, then F, then bar 3rd fret
(Saves tuning down)

Love this! what chords would you play for the chorus and pre chorus?
I'll get on that and post a tutorial soon! pre-chorus is E7-G7 and the chorus goes D-F#-G-A(4x)
awesome!! thank you so much!
I just started the video right now like really right now he just started playing the song and I was like :
Waaaooow imperresing🤩
I'm going to try this, it's a bit difficult for me but I want to do a cover so :)
(sorry, my English is very poor)
Excellent, I hope it helps, have fun ! Thank you for watching 🙏🏼
ohh i love this
Thank you for watching, hope it helps!
Pls do a tutorial on the live at houston one with the electric guitar
his facial expressions are gold xd
Cavetown cover? I'm subscribing
Hey soo that f# over A#sharp isn’t making my fingers to happy any alternatives???
Unfortunately those inverted chords are a beast. Try it without the pinky and mute the fourth string with the underside of your index finger
Your great! Waiting on the fingerstyle though
It was a good tutorial, but I just can't figure out what you're doing on the 7th fret and then to the 3rd fret.
Theres a key change near the end of the song. How would you play it? Would you just put a capo on the 1st fret?
hey after the extreme chord and you slide to the 7th fret, whats the finger positioning?
Hey man I know this this old but do you think you could come back to it and teach the mini soft rift almost, in the middle of the song. So far no one has taught it so far.
if you can give me a time stamp like eg.1:45-2:02 , ill see what i can do ;.>

I just can't figure out the thing where you goes from 3rd to 7th string. Does anyone have tips?
hej there’s no 7th string lol there’s only 6
@@145AYWON fret I mean

Just practice sliding up and down the string. Strike the string on the 7, slide, strike on 3rd. Practice over and over again
Is it the record version or the live version ? Because on the live one he is normally tuned and doesn’t play like that

Ben Jenkins try slowing it down to 75% in your menu. Practice and practice again, you will get it !
Just curious why are his hands shaking is that a condition (I'm new here don't know the story).
Too much coffee🤣

cual es la afinación?
what is the tuning again?

How come when he performed it live he played differently

Wait but when he played it live the first 3 chords were bar chords
Still sounds good tho
