How to play "Simple Man" by Lynyrd Skynyrd

[@mistyclayton7806]

This is not actually how its played

[@dscags2428]

I wanna know the tutorial on the last strumming and picking pattern at the end of the video

[@rodnocker505]

Not trying to be an a**hole but you are playing the arpeggios wrong bud. But there are so many different variations of this song that it’s not totally wrong. It’s just an easier version. Much easier for a beginner. And no I’m not going to make my own video. If anyone wants to see the best version check out guitar jams with Marty Schwartz.

[@chrishale8343]

love your embelishments killer

[@KurtunaFeesh]

Nice enough guy probably, but its like a beginner teaching a lesson. “Arrrright?”

[@logannnluv4423]

I’m learning this for my pop that has passed away from cancer rip Popop 😓

[@sinatrav3731]

I’m in the same boat❤️ my dad passed in 2015, but I realized that he always sang this to me. So I got a guitar & am learning it!

[@marktaylor3809]

I'm learning this for my girlfriend who loves the song.

[@jamigregwalls9775]

you should teach the hammer ons etc you played at the end during the strumming

[@Minime-vf2yd]

Colby the way u break it down makes it easy for me to learn the songs u post keep it up man your doing really good thanks.

[@markdavis5970]

I've played this for years but you showed the picking pattern and thats rare for any teacher.Great job man

[@flatroc1]

Sorry dude... way too much talkin'

[@brettmilliman1432]

Like all the rest...'Thank you!'...you made this easy to understand and learn...much appreciated!

[@jaymclaren8230]

Just perfect .. as I'm a learner myself ivd just gone and got my guitar 👌..thank-you.

[@lannycox4931]

Awesome lesson!! Nice job breaking it down without dragging it out. Maybe should’ve done a quick lesson video on the little sweet hammer ons you added at the end

[@mikeboswell1723]

this was very helpful thanks.

[@johnford3553]

I've been looking for a simple way to play this. Thank you so much for such a down-to-earth approach. You're a great teacher!

[@theforeman8120]

There's no simple way. Visit Scott Raines tutorial and you will tell

[@kp3747]

The guy sounds like RVZ himself....lol!

[@terrycraft9527]

Dude - I watched 5 other videos and had a friend try to teach me this - you succeeded. Thanks.

[@marktaylor3809]

I thumbed up for ya mate.

[@the600cc]

Wow you did better than the last 10 people I saw on KZbin….I m very slow . I like the way you teach .👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻✌🏼

[@hambone11]

Colby, I say this with all due respect as a public speaking instructor. I know you are nervous, but be aware of your word whiskers, such as OKAY and Alright. It might be healful for you to count all of your okays and train yourself not to use them. If you have time, try and join a Toastmasters club. Another benefit to joining a TMC is your songwriting off the cuff will improve. I hope that helps you. Thanks for your video.

[@Austin.0712]

Your picking is wrong

[@soumen62]

picking pattern is wrong

[@sweetkittiez]

Thank you for the video I just recently picked up the guitar after 20 years and this helped tremendously

[@jonahkidwell702]

Thanks Colby! Great work. Love the way you teach

[@jaymclaren8230]

What a perfect video 👌 I was hooked the minute it started and as I'm learning myself I've just gone and got my 🎸. Thank-you.

[@markberoth3394]

Great video I’m trying to learn different songs what a great explanation for the song. Thanks

[@sagehatch7786]

This is good for super beginners but that’s not the correct picking pattern. No Hate❤️

[@mikeymcgovern6946]

1:49 i see what u did there

[@cookingwiththesmiths]

Awesome job.

[@nowlovelifeinc]

The last strumming unless the song how did you do that

[@lpstd13]

Great, thx a lot.

[@philoash6768]

Love this song, now think I can finally play it, great lesson

[@angeldiaz762]

A little bonus: When you're strumming the progression, the 2nd bar of Am can be Am7 by just lifting up the middle finger and letting the G string be open. Also the tuning is Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb if you're aiming to sound like the recording

[@danielvalencia9061]

Thanks teacher

[@chrishale8343]

Good teacher

[@midnightraiin4035]

[@marktaylor3809]

[@rickydlayaute5387]
