How to Play My Hometown - Bruce Springsteen (cover) - Easy 4 Chord Tune

[@glelaw]

One of my favorite songs of all time. Like so many Springsteen songs, it evokes memories of my childhood growing up on the Jersey Shore. Can't believe you made it so easy for me to play. I will treasure this one always.💯

[@hground11]

Thank you Marty!!! for playing and teaching me the song "My Hometown" by Bruce Springsteen. Those fateful words "my hometown" drifted into my mind as I was re-orienting to my own little "hometown" following a week away. I had only heard the song a couple times so it was a kind of "spiritual" that I would even recall it. Anyway, I felt moved to try it out, so I went to my computer to print out the words and chords and that's when I stumbled upon your presentation. Now I have a great song to add to my song list. Greatly appreciated.

[@partymartyeasyguitartunes1711]

David Smith No problem David, I'm glad I could help. Yes, this song is one of my faves as well and really hits home for me too, thanx for tuning in and good luck.

[@spewtube-m1p]

You have a really nice singing voice. Thank you for sharing.

[@mikefloyd3928]

it seems like you have every song I like. my two favorite artist are bob seger and springsteen and you have tutorials for all of my favorite songs. Love to hear your covers. Your voice is great and sounds especially great on this one

[@waynechappell3263]

Marty,I LOVE all your songs and lessons…..I must say that I believe this one is my favorite amongst them all.So beautifully played and sung! You are truly gifted my brother…..Keep on Rocking and THANK YOU for all the lessons! 🤠🤟🎸

[@yrralyrral]

Nice tutorial and beautifully played and sung. Cheers for that!

[@indi1st517]

Thanks mate, I love this song. Great, easy to follow tutorial.

[@BiGKarkinos]

I'm such a noob that I'm playing this with G, Cadd9, D and Em. It helps me keep up since I don't have the dexterity yet to move so easily to C. I'm playing along with you over and over and I don't really notice much difference between C and Cadd9. I really appreciate this video!

[@partymartyeasyguitartunes1711]

Karkinos That's right Kark, There is little to no difference. In fact, I play what ever shape of C is comfortable depending on the song i'm playing at the time. But I treat Cadd9 as a regular C chord. Either one will work, thanx for tuning in and Happy Holidays

[@patricetriffault7430]

Vraiment beau cette reprise et cette chanson

[@MichaelStephenson51]

Don't think you are a particularly good teacher but I gave you a like cause I enjoyed your performance. Not quite The Boss but a pretty good job. Take care my friend.

[@jakobglassstories]

You have really explored a dynamic song selection in your posts. I just discovered your page recently. and am glad I did. Streets of Philidelphia is a great easy song to do on geetar. If you do cover it, would you be so kind as to say this is for Kelley. She's my squeeze and watches your channel every day, learning songs. Thanks man. You seem like a real class act.

[@joeh2533]

Dude, these videos are fantastic. Cracking version of My Hometown. I'm always looking for someone to put up some Boss songs. There ain't enough Springsteen lessons on here! If you could add some more, that would be grand. Good work! J.

[@partymartyeasyguitartunes1711]

+Joe Hannaway Thank you. He's one of my faves, I'll do my best, stay tuned. Thanx for tuning in

[@michaellong957]

Great cover. I love it transposed to G.

[@partymartyeasyguitartunes1711]

Thank you, I'm glad you like it. Yup, G fits my voice a little better and I find it easier to play which is the goal of my channel, to make the tunes easy for all levels to enjoy. Thanx for tuning in

Great song! Easy and fun to play! Appreciate it! I just started playing and your songs really help! It would be fun if you could do a easy version of "The River" by Bruce Springsteen if that´s possible. Thanks for the help any way!

[@partymartyeasyguitartunes1711]

[@piotrkubaszewski6351]

Very nice ! :)

[@partymartyeasyguitartunes1711]

Thank you. Hey, I am trying to reach 100k subscribers so tell your friends about me, it would be greatly appreciated, thanx for tuning in, good luck to you and take care

[@barrykelly2722]

Marty is playing one acoustic but there are two missing guitars off the peg hooks behind him. So therefore we can conclude......... Like the way he plays it. Steady and smooth. Like.

[@wynnwesley33]

Do you have a video for "Tougher than the rest"? I would love to hear your version.

[@partymartyeasyguitartunes1711]

I don't at the moment but that's a great tune. I have noted your request for a possible future project. Thanx for tuning in, good luck to you. Hey, I'm trying to reach 100k subscribers so please spread the word about my channel, it would be greatly appreciated

You are very welcome!!

[@meddlecho]

Nice 👌

[@partymartyeasyguitartunes1711]

Thanks 😊

[@kob3178]

What way do you mean play by G? And if I wanted to switch it for say em, how would I change the rest of the song?

[@GaryBook]

The song on the album is in the key of A. findsongtempo.com/artists/bruce-springsteen/songs/my-hometown-68ee2555-c6d4-4c9d-9d09-ff31ee6806fe Just capo on second fret. Great vocals.

[@theguyfromberlin]

thanks mate!

[@partymartyeasyguitartunes1711]

You are very welcome, thanx for tuning in. Hey, I'm trying to reach 100k subscribers so please spread the word about my channel, it would be greatly appreciated, thanx

[@kevin30705]

Very good. Help me out a lot. But it only goes to the Em twice and then it swaps to C in place of the Em twice. When he said "They're closing down"Not meaning to correct you but is guitar players have to stick together. Try it and you'll here the difference. Thanks again for the help.

[@partymartyeasyguitartunes1711]

+kevin lee No problem my friend thanx for your thoughts. I've always played it that way but I like your way too. That's tghe beauty of music, making it your own, is half the fun. Thanx for your comments and for tuning in, take care

[@ThoseWhoDare]

Nice, but in the bridge after 2 x Em, G the chords goes back C, G and C, G, D (or even C, G, C, D). Your version sounds fine, but I think there is a slight deviation here from the original song. Best regards.

[@partymartyeasyguitartunes1711]

there is, by design. This is merely my way of playing this song. I like to make it my own. Thanx for your comment. hey, I am trying to reach 100k subscribers so tell your friends about me, it would be greatly appreciated, thanx for tuning in, good luck to you and take care

[@deansullivan9775]

Thanks again. I played this in A. I like G alot better. Thanks Marty....

[@partymartyeasyguitartunes1711]

Dean Sullivan Yeah, I find it a little easier to play out of G, I'm glad you like the vid, good luck and thanx for watching

[@ian7005]

It's so difficult to keep the strumming patern the same while singing.... Great lesson though, thanks a lot!

[@partymartyeasyguitartunes1711]

It will come easier as long as you practice, I promise. Good luck

[@konradikomakozi3204]

i play along to improve

[@partymartyeasyguitartunes1711]

+konradi komakozi That`s great, keep doing just that and i know it will become easier for you. Good luck and take care

[@dougpowell8838]

he seems to only strum the 1,2,3 strings wonder how it sound with a full strum.

[@barrykelly2722]

Got me to pondering that also. That will catch everything on the D but maybe not so much on the G? Still he is better than I will ever be. He reminds me a bit of that other guitar guy - Marty Schwartz.

[@michaelhowardrosskrh74]

Bus stop not truck stop. Black n white not blackS n whiteS. N chorus is YOUR HOMETOWN. YOUR OWN TOWN. YOUR HOMETOWN. YOUR OWN TOWN. you played one too many chorus'. Ends with 1 your hometown.
