[@georgemyers7980]

Hey I appreciate you not getting upset with that like so many people do and certainly appreciate your time to try to help the guitar players of the world. It's just that I kind of like hearing it through and then going back and dissecting it ... Hey it's all good buddy that's just an opinion I'm sure it's perfect for others out there. Just continue doing what makes you happy and brings a smile to your face my friend. That's all that matters in life we have to find something that makes us smile 👍

[@jwglass2547]

I like the way you teach l like to hear you are my sunshine

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Thank you! And here is that song lesson- Johnny cash version kzbin.info/www/bejne/n6HbZq2FlKuXfbc

[@edc6774]

What always bothered me about this song is as it is a straight copy of Etta James with I’d rather go bland!

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

I have learned that since posting this

[@CoffinSupply]

Amazing teacher , makes me wanna get an acoustic

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Highly recommend! Thanks for watching!

[@RomayPM]

Hi Kev. Thank you for showing another way to play Bm. I can not, in any way, do bar cords, so this, for me, is great

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Great! You are welcome!

[@nightjar9754]

Youre such a good teacher!…great pace and detail. I actually feel like I can get somewhere after watching this. Thanks 😊

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Thanks! Your comment made my day! Happy to help and stick with it.

[@doreenandron2143]

Great lesson

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Thank you. Happy to help!

[@allenwilson9656]

Tennessee whiskey is not by Chris Stapleton , this version is. Originally written by Dean Dillon and Linda Hargrove first pitched to George Strait first released by David Alan Coe, then released by George Jones later blused up and released by Chris Stapleton .

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Thanks for the info

[@OccupyMelody]

Also is the same chord exact chord progression as “I’d Rather Go Blind” by Etta James.

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

@@OccupyMelody Cool! I learned that after doing the lesson. Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@jjforeal2]

Chris Stapleton has the best version, and big thanks to Justin Timberlake for changing Chris’s life that night in 2015 with that song. The crowd went nuts at the CMA’s that year when Justin’s part came up.

[@Spyder-jb2xl]

Thanks Karen

[@pvtts05]

Excellent lesson!

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Thanks! Glad you liked it

[@JD_Spencer]

you can play it also one step down with G and A minor too and it's easier if ya can't manage the B minor. Many peeps find the lower G key better too.

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Agreed. Have a lesson on that version here kzbin.info/www/bejne/oHe3qIaih7ual5o

[@09ironman1]

Very good video

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Thank you!

[@dennyhines4458]

Thank you for being there for so Manny people that are over 40 and like me want to play the guitar.

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Hey Denny. You are most welcome. Thanks for watching and stick with it! Enjoy and thanks for signing up for the lessons!!

[@rickyelvis3215]

a bit of winding wheel by ryan adams in this tune… cheers chris.

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Nice! Good ear!

[@gregmartin1757]

cool but isn't this song just blatant plagiarism of the old etta james song rather be blind . Same exact song just different lyrics.

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

That is what I have learned since posting the lesson :)

[@Tom-jn6ci]

Nice lessons , you can communicate so we'll ! 🖖

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Thanks! Happy to help!

[@johnnybgood2887]

My wife just melts with both; the song n the drink lol. "Tennessee Whiskey" for sure is a banger.

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Lol. Love me sone Tennessee whiskey too!

[@RomayPM]

Lol 😅😂😅

[@amdbtmedp2011]

Yeah I have a big problem with bar chords still, I just can't play them for some reason, I think I have arthritis in my hand

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Warm ups are important and this lesson may help kzbin.info/www/bejne/qJipeXSEi9KbptUsi=4OyddRtAI5OGPfqu

[@oldboatguy]

The original is the best version.

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

👍

[@daleturner3507]

It’s also the same tune as Etta James’ I’d Rather Go Blind

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Wow! Very cool. Did not know that. Will definitely have to go back and listen to these together. Thanks for the tip!

[@Coopdog1911]

Love the lesson! I never really understood why teachers teach bar chords like they have to bar all the strings. You only have to bar the ones that other fingers are not covering, and that makes it a lot easier for beginners or folks with gorilla hands like me to play them. :)

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Glad you like the lessons! More to come! Thanks for watching !

[@hellion3485]

NOT. CLASSIC COUNTRY . BUT THIS IS AMERICA... NOTHINS REAL.

[@paddyirish7102]

Thanks! Beatles are one of my many favorite bands.

[@artb1902]

Just ran across this, awesome approach. Something I've wanted to do, but I am afraid that I would not be able to as I have tremors in my hand that varies. Suggestions?

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Thank you for watching Art! Hmmmm. Not sure about the tremors though. Medication?

[@no_regerts5176]

Sounds like the same chords as “What’s Up” by the Four Non-Blondes

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Close

[@kathrynbrandt4014]

I want to see your 🐕. Your voice has so much resonance...similar to James Earl Jones. Thank you for your lesson.

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Thanks for the compliment and for watching!

[@jimdent351]

'm 50 and learning for the first time. I inherited my dad's 1991 Gibson J-45. Your channel really helps, thanks.

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

You are welcome. And great guitar!

[@tmakinthehouse]

am I crazy or did I see 3? Good video though. I don't know

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

No not crazy. The 3rd one is optional :) thanks for watching!

[@lepermessiah9309]

Amazing user name!! I will check that one out.

[@clubberlang110]

"I'd Rather Go Blind" by Etta James

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Yep

[@StingraySativaCo]

Tender whiskey by David Allan Coe***

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

listening to this version now - thanks!

[@StingraySativaCo]

@@Relaxandlearnguitar lol I like them both, I was just being an ass because a lot of people don’t know David Allan coe did it first because Chris Stapleton is the one who blew it up recently

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

@@StingraySativaCo no problem. I like learning about music!

[@StingraySativaCo]

@@Relaxandlearnguitar for sure. Me too. Love it when I find out that song I love is actually already an old classic

Sure can - check out a lesson here:kzbin.info/www/bejne/h2acoYmoabVsrZI

[@kevinbrautigam8491]

Loved it man thank you for taking time to show how to play this !

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

You are welcome!

[@TheJasoncash83]

It's actually 4 chords. E, a Bm, D.

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Yep. This is more of the starter version to have somewhere to jump off from. Thanks for watching!

[@JohnstownJohnny]

New for 22! great lesson tks! Which Martin is that? Tks 🤠

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

It is a Martin D1R. They don’t make them anymore but I’ve owned it for about 20 years. My favorite guitar!

[@JohnstownJohnny]

@@Relaxandlearnguitar nice! Tks! What is that equivalent to today? 🤔🤠

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

@@JohnstownJohnny maybe road series. Mine is solid spruce too and rosewood back and sides.

[@georgemyers7980]

Would have rather seen you actually play the song a Little More in its entirety and then go back and explain some of the Dynamics. A hair too much of explanation in the beginning instead of just playing it ... Certainly appreciate your time though and video. It's just some people learn more by watching then listening to talk. Of course you're going to have to explain a little in the back end of the video. Thank you though once again. Just my thoughts

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Hey George, thanks for the suggestion

[@gearhead4005]

awesome, thanks

Mint

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Thanks!

[@JB-rw9xt]

Fun lesson! Gave me a good start. Except I think it’s 4 chords and the little intermittent riffs can be played in the F minor pentatonic scale. But simple is good. I’ve simplified songs I thought were too complex so my band could learn them quicker.

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Thanks! You are right. This is a good start to build from. Thanks for watching!

[@TheJasoncash83]

it's def 4 chords E, a, Bm, D

[@kevinlindgrenmusic]

@@TheJasoncash83 it’s only A and Bm

[@TheJasoncash83]

@@kevinlindgrenmusic no its not.

[@kevinlindgrenmusic]

@@TheJasoncash83 been playing in bar bands for years my guy.

[@6figureincomesecrets175]

If Maggie is your dog's name you need to do the Chris Stapleton song "Maggie's Song." But you can't cry when you sing it. BTW, great lesson.

[@Relaxandlearnguitar]

Thanks so much! And that is a great suggestion. But I don’t think I could make it through it :)
