[@procyon.lotor4]

This will be the day I learn American Piieeeee

[@dennismcwhertersr.1768]

The best and easiest understanding tutorial of this song on the internet ever!!!! Thank you so very much.

[@GuitarZero2Hero]

Thank you Dennis! There’s so many chords it was tricky to present it in a friendly way!

[@taylahbarnsley4522]

Always wanted to learnt this song and play it around the campfire. So glad my favourite guitar teacher was able to teach it.

[@myasakura5344]

Search any song you want to play and this guy has a tutorial for it. Thank you very much!

[@beekbuster4544]

One of the best songs ever written. Great job breaking it down.

[@nixternal]

This is one of the songs I tend to jam to at the end of my nightly practice. The strumming is the easiest part of this song. The hardest part has been remembering all of the darn chords :) I need to spend more time on it as it is one of my all time favorite tunes. You rock as always!

[@chasekulacki5903]

I feel like Dave just reads our minds at this point

[@jetduongsworld]

Seriously not only you are the best guitar teacher you are also reading minds too? I was just playing this song yesterday from guitar tabs. Thank you!

[@imannonymous7707]

Its not that easy, but rewarding once you get it down

[@ladillalegos]

You got the best and clearer tutorials brother, thanks

[@nomoremusic3738]

Wicked i was just thinking of learning this tune recently. Thanks dave!

[@pedroalves9063]

Please do “Vincent” !!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@thomas-katy-lucapargiter1411]

I'm still very new to guitar and I'm learning this pretty easily, thanks!

[@mjmloot]

Best tutorials I've seen thus far by alot!

[@gtsipejr]

Great lesson Dave! An old favorite of mine for sure.

[@cat-man5522]

Thanks a lot Dave for making these amazing guitar tutorials for us .

[@ToneHelix97]

I love that you do a demonstration at the end! I learned Paint it Black through your tutorial and this will be the second one. Thanks for sharing!

[@iraa182_2]

Dude, the metronome thing it's awesome I hope you do it more often. I want to use it but it's pretty difficult to understand for some songs for me, but I want because I understand the point of it. Keep it going pls! Awesome job as always

[@imannonymous7707]

Glad to see you pick this one....ya its easy chords but alot of them in the progression.....cool

[@RUPSIEISMYNAME]

Of 5 months learning your tutorial: Someone like you from adele + toss a coin for your witcher + radioactive from imagine dragon, this is a nice challenge to raise the bar for beginners. That d7 is quite tricky but i'll practise. Keep up the good work! If i could donate i would certainly do.

[@RUPSIEISMYNAME]

Wait you have a donate link. NICE!

[@eduardo.9619]

Awesome!! Please do Castles in the Air!!

[@danielkim5945]

Good choice and best instruction

[@alfiesibbons6818]

Hi Dave I am 77 years young and of all the videos this is the most comprehensive thanks a lot if I don,t learn anything from these I give up Alfred Sibbons

[@LostMountainRestoration]

Another great job. Thanks, Dave.

[@patricksweeney8914]

Thank you! That was so fun to play along with. With so many guitar tutorials, you're forced to look at some handshapes so the teacher can flog the tabbed video on their patreon. Then again, I can't complain because Don Mclean would have just had a record player to vaguely what he wanted to play and I have a wealth of resources

[@allansmith7305]

Nicely done. thanks!

[@c0naNnn]

Picked up my guitar for this after years of not playing. Ooof my fingertips are hurting because of no callus. But I made it all through the tutorial! What an easy song!

[@egarcialopez]

Awesome. Thanks so much

[@afmmunshat4029]

[@Asiasushja]

Long long time ago, I can still remember How that music used to make me smile And I knew if I had my chance That I could make those people dance And maybe they'd be happy for a while But February made me shiver With every paper I'd deliver Bad news on the doorstep I couldn't take one more step I can't remember if I cried When I read about his widowed bride But something touched me deep inside The day the music died So bye-bye, Miss American Pie Drove my Chevy to the levee But the levee was dry Them good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye Singing, "This'll be the day that I die" This will be the day that I die Did you write the Book of Love? And do you have faith in God above? If the Bible tells you so Do you believe in rock 'n' roll? Can music save your mortal soul? And can you teach me how to dance real slow? Well I know that you're in love with him 'Cause I saw you dancing in the gym You both kicked off your shoes Then I dig those rhythm and blues I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck With a pink carnation and a pickup truck But I knew I was out of luck The day the music died I started singing bye-bye, Miss American Pie Drove my Chevy to the levee But the levee was dry Them good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye Singing, "This'll be the day that I die" This will be the day that I die Now for ten years we've been on our own And moss grows fat on a rolling stone But that's not how it used to be When the jester sang for the King and Queen In a coat he borrowed from James Dean And a voice that came from you and me Oh and while the King was looking down The jester stole his thorny crown The courtroom was adjourned No verdict was returned And while Lenin read a book of Marx The Quartet practiced in the park And we sang dirges in the dark The day the music died We were singing, bye-bye Miss American Pie Drove my Chevy to the levee But the levee was dry Them good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye Singing, "This'll be the day that I die" This will be the day that I die Helter skelter in the summer swelter The birds flew off with a fallout shelter Eight miles high and falling fast It landed foul on the grass, the players tried for a forward pass With the jester on the sidelines in a cast Now the halftime air was sweet perfume While the sergeants played a marching tune We all got up to dance Oh, but we never got the chance 'Cause the players tried to take the field The marching band refused to yield Do you recall what was revealed The day the music died? We started singing bye-bye, Miss American Pie Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry Them good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye And singing, "This'll be the day that I die" This will be the day that I die Oh, and there we were all in one place A generation lost in space With no time left to start again So come on, Jack be nimble, Jack be quick Jack Flash sat on a candlestick 'Cause fire is the devil's only friend Oh, and as I watched him on the stage My hands were clenched in fists of rage No angel born in Hell Could break that Satan's spell And as the flames climbed high into the night To light the sacrificial rite I saw Satan laughing with delight The day the music died He was singing bye-bye, Miss American Pie Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry Them good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye And singing, "This'll be the day that I die" This will be the day that I die I met a girl who sang the blues And I asked her for some happy news But she just smiled and turned away I went down to the sacred store Where I'd heard the music years before But the man there said the music wouldn't play And in the streets, the children screamed The lovers cried and the poets dreamed But not a word was spoken The church bells all were broken And the three men I admire most The Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost They caught the last train for the coast The day the music died And they were singing bye-bye, Miss American Pie Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry And them good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye Singing, "This'll be the day that I die" This will be the day that I die They were singing bye-bye, Miss American Pie Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry Them good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye Singing, "This'll be the day that I die"
