Steve, I just want to tell you, there are people out here with no hope, and you take the time to do something that means so much to me. Thank you, sir. This means so much to me. The way you teach so that I can actually do it. You're genuine, thanks again

Great video.

[@vegnewb]

I kind of wish you would do one complete run through at the end so we can here what it should sound like. Or, better yet, make a separate video then you can get more clicks.

great job on this course Steve. This is the second one I've watched. The first was Hey Jude - which was right on target for me as a beginner. I have 2 questions, 1: can Rocket Man be played with 4 fingers, using the same "theory" you used on Hey Jude? 2: Can the chords be transposed? Looking forward to learning many other songs from you. Thanx.

[@stevesongs1]

Thanks for the comment Raymond! Yes, you can totally use the same exact idea to add a 4th note (4th finger) to all of these chords. The main difference that you will likely notice is that, because the A major and D major have a different chord "shape" (they both have a black key for that middle note), when you make those into 4 note chords it may be a little trickier to get your fingers into position. You can look at my tutorial for Stand By Me where in the middle of the video I play the D chord with 4 notes to see what I'm doing with my right hand (play the black key with your thumb and the white keys up higher on the key itself). 'Can it be transposed?' Yes, if you have a transpose feature on your keyboard you can transpose it up 3 half steps and that will allow you to play along with the original. The original key is Gminor (much harder to play those chords). does that answer your question?
