I have to say this is really the best tutorial on KZbin! With this tutorial I finally understood it xD😂

[@LaurenBateman]

Aww, thanks so much!

[@lucaskyprian4723]

I couldn't find anyone else who teaches this slow thank you so much

[@LaurenBateman]

Thanks for watching!

[@alv1174]

Man, this was awesome. I have been focusing on other things and have not been playing a lot of music lately but you really got me in the mood to pick up my guitar.

[@LaurenBateman]

Awesome!!!

[@danagehman7455]

Lauren I had to chuckle when you said he did have a gun because I always say that myself when I hear this song on the radio.

[@LaurenBateman]

😬😬😬

[@hristomitkov]

Thank you, Lauren! Right now I am making my first steps in the gutar playing. Your leasons are great! "Come as you are" is one of my favorite songs. It is so exiting!

[@LaurenBateman]

Rock on!

[@jerseyred9554]

Lauren, I have 2 paid KZbin sites, and they have been great, but it's like you know me personally and understand how to hold me by the hand and walk me through the lesson. I'm a retired trucker, fireman, & biker, but learning has ALWAYS been up hill both ways in the snow for me. Cowboy Tuff, but dumb as a post. Thank you. As soon as I can I will let the other sites expire and take up with y'all.

[@LaurenBateman]

Thank you so much Rusty. That makes me so happy.

[@mite3133]

This is a really good lesson. Thank you. You should do a video on how to down tune a guitar a whole step! That's definitely the hardest part of this song :,)

[@LaurenBateman]

Oooo yes.

Need to practice some more Difficult but lot's of Fun 👍 Like

[@Sanlynnben]

You are more clear than most guitar teachers that I have found on YT. ❤But I still think you could be more clear by going slowly; be clear about each section and don’t backtrack- with all guitar teachers- I find the backtracking causes confusion- just start from beginning to end.. we can replay the video until we get it.

[@TYB439]

Lauren, I would love to see a video of you palm muting your electrics while seated. Also, will you play Dust In the Wind on your electrics. Thanks.

[@LaurenBateman]

Well lucky for you I have one. kzbin.info/www/bejne/goWopmN6abqngck I think I start on the acoustic but switch to electric a few minutes in.

[@TYB439]

@@LaurenBateman Thank you!

[@floydbarber7528]

right now i am unable to hold the 3 stringts with my 3rd finger and play the 2nd string and reach with my first finger the fist string.. my fingers are very small... but i mute them with my 2nd finger for now. hope to get better soon thanks for the video

Aftenoon,thank you for doing this,when you got time,can you list all the chords you used in this song.thanx

[@LaurenBateman]

Hi Shawna, I would watch the video through and write them down. There's only 3 or 4 total

[@FlugHerr]

Use the Gretsch Lauren

[@LaurenBateman]

Ha ha. I did use it on some of my recent pentatonic scale lessons. Go check those out.

[@crazygamer241]

On the F power chord, u should try to hit the two highest strings on that first upstroke.

[@LaurenBateman]

Thanks for the tip!

[@crazygamer241]

@@LaurenBateman Yeah it's a tricky one. You need to curl your fingers up so that they aren't muting those higher strings and they can still ring out.

Hello Francis

[@jimbishop8667]

Why are f# b and d designated as 5th cords... aren't those the same notes as the major cord would be?

[@LaurenBateman]

Because I'm using power chords not the full chord

[@nadarTelevision]

Sweet

[@LaurenBateman]

Sure is!

[@lara2cooll]

how do i tune down my guitar?

[@LaurenBateman]

Using a tuner. It will look like a little b.

[@someguy5035]

Doesn't sound so bad on acoustic for the main loop. Bridge and chorus lack punch though.

[@LaurenBateman]

Yeah, if you had a distortion pedal you could kick on it would help.
