I love this method to learn a song with chord diagrams over lyrics ...thanks

[@MrDoffuttd]

I've been lookin for the perfect "common-man" acoustic version of this for a "long-long" time - this is it. Thank you!

[@hitsonacousticguitar]

:-), "common-man acoustic version" is a nice term, never heard this, but I dig it

[@bryanjames6520]

Hits On Acoustic Guitar Dude- how did you get Elton’s vocals soloed?

[@kevincanter2575]

I agree!! Drummer for years!! Been learning campfire songs on my acoustic. 👌

[@mboehm04]

4 years ago this was posted. Can’t imagine how many people this has helped. People could be playing this at parties or with friends all because you took the time to make it. Thank you.

[@hitsonacousticguitar]

:-) Thank you so much, I like the idea.

[@ancientsouloutdoors4088]

I've got to say, I'm a seasoned guitarist of 47 years, and I absolutely love your approach to this tutorial. Clear, concise, and very user friendly. Good on you brother! Subbed 😊

[@PaulAkers]

Again, your teaching method is so good. You literally learn a song four or five times faster than anyone else. You are a superstar.

[@mugginsdot]

Man!!! YES!!! Perfect lessons execution for players whom just need to follow along see crystal clear display of the chords and how and when to strum!!!! The very best I've seen on KZbin! Way to go! 👍🏻 & subscribed!!!

[@5t66t5]

What a really great way of showing how to play a song.

[@gglendinningok]

lovely, can't tire of this song, it has a timeless magic to as some do

[@J101191514]

Great method - a karaoke for guitarists! And the original vocals isolated - nice.

[@Joe-vy5qw]

Friend: so how long do you think it will take you to learn this basic song? Me: and I think its gonna be a long long time...

[@ryanfischer2889]

Dude this was awesome! Thanks for posting such a great video. Now I can finally play this song accurately

[@dereksamson4798]

This is Perfect! love the way you laid out the chords in the form you did so clean and simple to follow! Genius!!! SUBS all day here! Thank you!!

[@subversion6066]

This is the way to teach a song and do a tutorial. The only right way. Just play the song. Perfecto. Thanks.

[@vincentgriffin9202]

Saved my butt trying to piece together a talent show act. Thank you so much! Keep up the great work!! It's fantastic how well made your videos are. :D

[@PCPInvestigations]

I play an arrangement similar to this as an instrumental space filler sometimes. Cool when the crowd recognizes it and subconsciously start singing along on chorus. Going to try sprucing it up with some of these touches! Very nice

[@louchsquad]

Them hamerr on's! Beautiful tutorial with having the background vocals. Great job!

[@BoewidDavy]

I just love jamming along with this. Wonderful work.

[@KennyKnoxify]

Best KZbin lesson I've ever seen. Thank you

[@garyr1522]

great job, nicely played, chord windows perfectly helpful, and just enough extra licks and tricks to make it pop (I believe that is the saying these days). Thanks for taking the time to post this, really appreciated (from Bristol, England!).

[@hitsonacousticguitar]

Thanks, I was in Bristol last year with my family. What a nice town, you are lucky :-).

Love your playing style and how you broke this song down for camp fire playing with classical edge. I’m looking to upgrade to Taylor guitar, what model is yours. Amazing sound!!

[@johnbaglio3471]

The capo 3rd fret changing key on me I think, I'm playing in E flat on piano and despite a little acoustic tuning issue i think its right,,,,,good video, its little back in the day following the bouncing ball on tv

[@fehandig4863]

perfect with lyrics on top

[@KynatNL]

PERFECT! With these easy chords I can play it am maybe play around with melody to transition between chords like Elton does on the piano.

[@cafecomguitarra9114]

O som desse violão é divino

[@coyotezinho]

Capotraste é um traste. Mas vou curtir o vídeo pela generosidade. Capotrast is a fret. But I will enjoy the video for its generosity. Thank you.

[@FishermanClay8108]

This is how everybody should learn. Very good job buddy

[@nils_1865]

So, whats the strumming pattern 1:00 ?

[@CameronDamn]

Been playing this without a capo ...this is way better. Thanks. What program do you use to insert the chords?

[@debbiebullock-y2q]

[@hitsonacousticguitar]

Thanks, but this is actually Elton singing.

[@realasadoughnut]

@Hits On Acoustic Guitar oh...I was wondering how you were crushing it. My bad

[@Darragh1]

That's hilarious, I literally wanted to learn that song next... and there it is! haha :) Keep them coming!

[@ricardomazza1026]

Wonderful lindo! !!!!!!!!!

[@PaulAkers]

The last thing is, I think it would be really cool if you had an intro video so I could see who you were and you kinda introduced your concept and why you're doing what you're doing and a little bit of your background. It be cool to have a little brief bio 60 seconds.

[@Duke_Raoul]

This is what I was looking for ;)

[@zionweaver]

This is fantastic!!

[@imannonymous7707]

Yup another great track , nice

[@paulmurphy7028]

[@marktaylor3809]

I think it's going to be a long long time till i sort this song out. Thumbs up from me.

[@jojonorris8047]

Best lesson on youtube ...wish I could get the strumming pattern.

JoJo Norris The strumming patten comes from your heart. Feel it first, then play it.
