How to play 'Mrs Robinson' by Simon and Garfunkel

- Here's another absolute classic - this song is SO fun to play - we'll go through the chords and strumming patterns to this iconic song by two of the greatest singer/songwriters of all time. We'll tackle the main riff as well - and as always, we'll do a slow playalong and then a full speed playalong toward the end. I also throw in a bit of lead stuff at the very end if you are looking to improve in that area as well.
I'll be using the 'Oldie Song 4' pattern that comes with the Beatbuddy for those that want to play along with their drum machines at home. 180BPM
Songsheets are always available at / guitaratwork
And.....we'll be playing along with the fabulous BEATBUDDY drum machine pedal and we'll be using the amazing AEROS Loop Studio GOLD EDITION pedal from Singular Sound. Play along with me!

Great lesson to play a classic…My daughter is now Mrs Alex Robinson so I can now dedicate this to her and Casey….Thanks Shane
Im a solo player always on the hunt for new meat for the sets .....these videos are invaluable thank you sir!
Fantastic - glad you’re here lad. Cheers! Shane
When i watch you playing the guitar you just make me smile!
Thank you Alan - that’s so great! My best to you and I’m happy to have you here with us. Cheers! Shane
@@GuitarAtWork Thanks
I have say Shane, I got more out of just watching a couple of your lessons than I have trying to learn from books for a few years. Thankyou😊
That’s super - thank you! Shane
200,000 Subs are coming soon . That leaves 800,000 that have yet to discover the Best Guitar Teacher on TH-cam . But they will . Thank You Shane for all you do .
Greatly appreciated - hugely encouraging. Thank you - my best to you! Shane.
Congrats on 150k subscribers. You've helped me learn songs I never thought i'd be able to play and have made me a better player all around. You deserve a million subs! Best teacher on TH-cam hands down.
That’s so great - really makes my day. Thank you! Shane
Shane, Shane, Shane… you’ve given us an early Christmas present. Thank you sir!!!!!
Thank you Jana - I really appreciate you taking the time to write. My best to you and I hope you have a ton of fun with this one. Cheers! Shane
I do enjoy watching on how you play this song.🙂I love learning and playing guitar but till now I still in the process of learning.
Keep at it - go at your own speed. Have fun with it! Shane
Congrats on the 150k Shane! Really enjoy your work.👍
Hey thanks for that - much appreciated and very happy to have you here with us. Cheers! Shane
Wow, best lesson I've seen. Mrs Robinson heated up in the full speed play. A lot of picks will go flying. Pro tip, keep a short piece of 1/2 Dowell by your chair. A stamp size piece of double sided tape on the Dowell retrieves dropped picks.Saves my back every time.
Ha! That’s fabulous Ray - big thank you for that and very glad you enjoyed. Cheers! Shane
I'm much better at holding the pick. But I aim for a relaxed grip without tension creeping into my playing. Another killer strum song is The Eagle by John Denver. He's soaring like a bird in flight with that strum. Big workout.
Just watched your lesson on the song Mrs Robinson,and was blowin" away by the ease of how you presented it in a easy form to play it.Thank-you once again for your professional teaching
Thank you Ed - so great to hear you enjoyed it. Thanks for being here and for taking the time to comment. Very encouraging. Cheers! Shane
I’m so bad with rhythm. Been teaching myself for 5 years but when you don’t have anyone to play with or show you things you don’t get very far. I do enjoy watching your videos. 😊
Happy to hear you’re enjoying. Grab a metronome or BeatBuddy and dig into the rhythm thing. Well worth it! Shane
I appreciate how you play through it so we students can play along. Great lesson Thanks so much!
Thank you Corey. Very glad you enjoyed. My best to you! Shane
Boy...this is a fun workout....thanks for the Saturday morning cardio...lol....thanks my man....oh, BTW gratz on 150k...on to 200k....
Ha! Thanks Chris - appreciated! Shane
Absolutely love the enthusiasm you start this video with.
Great video, great lesson!
Thanks Wally - you da best - hope you’re well as can be! Shane
This guy is SO GREAT!!!
Thank you Curt - glad to have you here with us - Cheers!
Shane
Greetings from Germany and a big Thank You! I love your lessons.
Thank you! So great to hear from people all over the world who are enjoying. I'm very glad to have you here with us and I wish you the very best on your guitar journey! Shane
I could spend ALL DAY viewing this guy…
Thank you Curt - my best to you! Shane
A classic and fun one indeed. Thx, Shane.
Thanks Ed - hope you’re doing well. Best weekend to you!
You talkin' about Shane or the song?? 😅
My late Uncle Murray Hamilton loved this song considering he was Mr.Robinson!
Thanks a lot for sharing your skills. You make tricky songs easier to play. Love your enthusiasm. I learn a lot thanks to you. Best teacher ever. Greetings from France.
Marcel
You’re the man, Shane. Dig your style and energy. You’ve become my favorite instructor.
Thank you Peyton - greatly appreciated! Shane
Dude - stop with they eyes ! !
Scaring the dog ....
🤣
Just funning - Loved it ...
and the dog's howling along too
Excellent! Shane
Thanks for your hint about playing the low E string F# over a dm or D chord. It’s all those embellishments that you teach which make such a difference in your lessons. You’re a level up from the competition! Thx again
Thanks for that - my best to you! Shane
Congratulations, well deserved for sure. I'm an "older" player as well (lol) and have been playing for many years, just have never really advanced passed the average guitar player level but, you have taught me quite a few new songs and I greatly appreciate the work you put into this.
I mentioned this one before a while back but, Blind Faith's "Can't Find My Way Home" would be a good one, if you get the chance. I'm sure you get a lot of requests. Thanks Shane.
Thanks Roger - I appreciate you being here with us and commenting. Always happy to hear from people who are enjoying - great song request and it's definitely on the list. Cheers! Shane
Once again Shane, thank you. Great song to learn and add to the repertoire. Thanks for the advice.
Thanks for taking the time to comment. Happy to have you here with us. Cheers! Shane
This is so fun!!! Love it!!!😊😊😊😊
Crazy fun song to play! Shane
Great lesson Mate. ... Merry Christmas to you, yours and Jack. 🎉🎉. Another great year of Guitar at work. Wishing you all the best for 2024. Thank you for sharing your skills.. congratulation on 150k.... long way from the 10k video years ago. Well Done Shane. Cheers ☕️ 🍻 mate.
Russ! You're the best - sincere thanks for being here since day one. I've enjoyed our back and forth. Hearing from people is incredibly important to me - I'm used to teaching one on one and talking into a camera is different. But.....then I read comments such as yours and things make more sense. Merry Christmas to you over there - Cheers! Shane 😀
Very rigorous strumming. Lively. Cheers from Indonesia.
Wow - thank you. All the best from Canada - I appreciate you being here. Cheers! Shane

I just bought myself a new Taylor guitar -- I need a new song to play on it. This is perfect! Thanks!
Hey thanks for that! I was thrilled this morning when I saw that it had rolled 150K subscribers. This has been such an amazing journey - so fun. I hope you enjoy that new Taylor - fabulous guitars. Cheers! Shane
Shane, Thanks for saving me 10% on the Beat Buddy! Also, thanks for including the beat buddy setting. Still trying to navigate the pedal. The setting is very helpful.
Fabulous - thanks Bill - it’s such a great pedal. Best to you! Shane
Great video Shane! Congrats on the 150K subscribers. I was fortunate to learn from you a lifetime ago in person with GAW at Nortel. Proud to say I have joined your Patreon channel and look forward to learning again with you.
Wow! That’s amazing - a big thank you for that. Happy to have you here and in Patreon - I hope you’ll keep me posted as to progress. Cheers! Shane
What a great channel! I'm so glad to have stumbled across this! Fantastic instructions and so many great songs covered. I particularly love the Tom Petty stuff. Your advice on the lead play is amazing. I always held short of playing lead lines but this makes it so much fun. Got the Beat Buddy and the Aeros Loop Studio now - well worth the investment.Keep'em coming!
That’s SUPER! Thanks Matt and very glad you’re enjoying. You’re going to love the BeatBuddy and Aeros together. Amazing combo. Cheers! Shane
I just came up with a pretty darn cool arrangement because of you😂. My wife actually likes it and she's my toughest listener to impress 😂. You got me back to standard tuning I've been in dropped D for so long I forgot how cool standard tuning is 😅
That’s great Wayne - thanks for that. Shane
Always a pleasure mate keep up the good work. Merry Christmas to you and your beat buddy 👍
Thank you Neil - happy to hear from you - Cheers! Shane
This was awesome! Thanks so much!🙏🎸
Thanks for that - I appreciate you being here with us! Shane 😀
Thanks Shane!!
Thank you Ken - hope you have a ton of fun with this one. Cheers! Shane
That was very fun. I always liked the song but never played it. Now I do. If I could just do something about my voice. I used to sing very well but now I'm old and I pretty much can't sing anymore.
Congratulations on 150k well deserved 👏👏👏
Thanks Spider - very kind of you. This has been so fun. All the best! Shane

Thank you Frank - much appreciated. Shane
Amazinnnnnggggg!!!!!
Thank you!! Cheers! Shane
I used to busk to this classic with a friend of mine. It was always a hit!
You should get into some of the actual lead parts. Paul Simon pulls off some great riffs…check out the versions on The Graduate soundtrack. 👍🏻
Great vid, have a good Christmas Shane! I miss the jazz lessons, maybe we'll see a chord melody session some day!
Thanks for that - merry Christmas to you and hope you’re doing well. Cheers! Shane
The boy has rhythm I tell you
Got it! Thanks.
Ok great. Thanks Eric Cheers, Shane
LOVE IT !!!!!!
Fabulous - thanks! Shane
Thanks
Happy you enjoyed! Shane
Mrs. Robinson you're trying to seduce me...
Aren't you...?🤣
Great fun Shane😁👍

Right back atcha Shane😁
😎✌👍❤🖖
Hey Shane! What a coincidence! In MTL for two days business, went to the Old Dublin pub Thursday nite, the guy opened his first set with this song. Hope you're doing well and hope to connect soon.
Rob! Great to hear from you lad - I enjoyed our time together at Ciena and Nortel......you're a great player. My best to you and Tracey - Cheers! Shane
180 bpm is really clipping along. If you're not used to playing anything that fast, I'd work up to it in small chuncks over an extended time. Your wrist will thank you.
For sure Greg - thanks for that, Shane
He's talking at 200 bpm
Thank you
Glad you enjoyed - thanks Jean. Shane
Great lesson as always Shane! What model is your Taylor?
Thank you Jimmy - glad you enjoyed. I’m playing a Taylor 814CE (2019). It’s fabulous. Cheers,
Shane
Working hard on my faces!!!!
Ha! That’s awesome - thanks Mike! Shane
THANX
Thanks for being here - hope you enjoy! Shane
Brilliant! Also what guitar are you playing, I like the tone. Cheers
Thanks Jesse - very glad you enjoyed. I'm playing a Taylor 814CE (2019) - I really love it. You're hearing it plugged straight into the mixer/recorder with a bit of compression and reverb added at mixdown. Best to you! Shane
Which beat buddy beat are you using ? I play this one but I don’t have the right beat
Hi there - I’m using the ‘Oldie Song 4’ pattern at 180bpm. Cheers! Shane
What beat buddy beat are you using? that would be good to know..
I’m using the ‘Oldie Song 4’ pattern at 180bpm

Hi Shane, Mrs. Robinson doesn't seem to be in your song sheets folders. Am I missing something?
Hi Eric - you can get song sheets at patreon.com/guitaratwork - lots of stuff there! Shane
Shane, thank you! Which beat buddy beat are you using?
Thanks Walker - I hope you'll have fun with this one. I'm using the full version of the Beatbuddy - I've had it for years - Love it! Shane
You mention bpm but not the track to use. I have a beat buddy. Thanks Shane!!!
@@walkerhjones sorry - I wrote in the description this time - Old Timie Song 4 180bpm
Yay, from an old timer! ✌
Sir it would be nice if you show the figure position or cord diagram
Hot video!
Cat Stevens. How can I tell you. Alun Davies.
need the sheets to visually follow & learn...Sorry I can't afford $. Vietnam Vet and broke
wow you look like Tommy E
Really?
You have a clicky pick. Try celluloid fender 351. Or learn to play with your fingernail and thumbnail.
Merry Christmas Shane
A big thank you for that - Merry Christmas to you and yours and I hope you really enjoy playing this song. Cheers! Shane
