Your Dmaj7 is how I sometimes play an F#m without the bar chord. Any minor can be played with the high 3 strings in its root fret position.

[@adrianmcgachie]

Tony is still the most straight talking no-nonsense teacher on KZbin. I love it and can follow some tricks, although I am still very much a bedroom stadium rock n roller! (But the crowd still give me standing ovations in my head!)

[@GuitarME]

Wow, thanks a lot for the kind words! I'm glad you find my lessons helpful! Those imaginary standing ovations count too! 😄🎸

[@ghost_sc2]

@@GuitarMEwatching your lessons is bringing me WAY out of my comfort zone and just after about 5 hours of practice, I can already see a MASSIVE improvement in my overall control and it is so addicting!!! I watched the Sweet Home Alabama tutorial and I am struggling with the bit that leads into the G Major Barre chord but the level of control overall is insane

[@boothy201]

Nice progression, Tony. A progression that George Harrison RIP was quite fond of, Most noticeably in, the excellent, 'Something'

[@BrianBrandolino]

Yeah, I hear George Harrison all over that sequence he's showing.

[@David-wy9jl]

The acoustic guitar is such a beautiful instrument.

[@GuitarME]

Absolutely! It's a joy to play and listen to. 😃

[@robertwillett4122]

Yes acoustic guitar is sweet. I have a 12 string being delivered this week. Do you think I'm excited? Can't wait.

[@alabastersmidge4692]

​@robertwillett4122 Have Fun!!!

[@Garyhubbard007]

I've watched several videos now, This is wonderful stuff you are giving us Tony. Thanks very much Tony. Your a good Scottish man. Scotland is where my Hubbard clan started from.

[@GuitarME]

Cool! Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm feeling very happy. 🙌🏻

[@noelmorris1787]

It is a lovely progression that's in quite a few songs. I first came across it on Rod Stewart's " I was only joking my dear ", but have noticed it on quite a few others since.

[@RARenfield]

I first heard this progression in a jingle from the early 70's promoting the new fall lineup on T.V. Unmistakable. I used to riff on it with the band back in the day.

[@MrCeeAre]

That first opening progression you showed is the chorus to "Time In A Bottle".

[@stuartfox480]

Reminds me of sixpence none the richer called kiss me.

[@Cjohn31]

Same

[@Bokkie100k]

It's called a Line Cliché for a reason

[@danielndoan]

You are really close. It’s very similar except it’s played in C

[@summerboy1958]

Exactly

[@spacemonkey59]

If you lose the G and throw in an Em youv'e got "Everbodys Talkin" by Harry Nilsson. A very good song for a beginner to learn as it has simple rhythm that they can aim for, all downstrokes to start with then go for the challenge of sticking it like the song.

[@MoviesCB]

Gorgeous, simple, and elegant. Beautifully presented with the close-ups of the left hand. Friendly and not intimidating. Got right to the point. Thank you.

[@GuitarME]

Wonderful! Thank you so much for the kind words! 🙌🏻

[@MoviesCB]

@@GuitarME You're entirely welcome. Best wishes and rock on.

[@sunshinepickers7108]

Another one of my favorites, Tony. I also played the E string riff before the A chord and ended with the E string riff and then the D chord. Sounded cool. it sounded like a walk down. Thanks for all you do Tony, I've learned learned SO much and am learning so much from your lessons. Mike

[@GuitarME]

Very cool! Thanks a lot for your feedback, Mike! I'm very happy that you're learning a lot from my lessons, always happy to help. Cheers! 🙌🏻

[@captainhennahead2323]

Man!! I love these lessons!!!! I've been practicing scales and spiders for a year...and now...I'm actually playing!!!! Yes!!! Thank you!!

[@jizzymacg2440]

That's a great sound. It is very easy to learn. Had it nailed after a few minutes. Thanks, Tony. You the man🙌

[@GuitarME]

You're very welcome, man! I'm glad you found it easy to learn and nailed quickly. Keep up the great work! I appreciate your support! 🎸🙌

[@scottstennes6983]

Love the close up on the fret board! And what a pretty little ditty.

[@GuitarME]

Thanks so much! Glad you liked it, Scott! 🙌🏻

[@raimundlorenz]

You are awesome, Tony. Simple and effective. Many thanks from Austria 🙂👍

[@GuitarME]

Thank you so much! I really appreciate your kind words all the way from Austria! Thanks for watching, Cheers! 🤗

[@robertwillett4122]

It's so frustrating. I have been playing these cords all of my life. You'd think I would have stumbled on that melody. There are so many notes and the way you can arrange them. It's all most infanit. I love guitar. Never a boring moment. I consider myself blessed that I didn't quit some 40 years ago. I learn something new every week. Actually I could learn something new every day, if there was only more time. I love guitar. Besides family, it has been a cornerstone of my life. Thank you, good sir, for sharing..

[@GuitarME]

It's amazing how even after all these years, the guitar continues to surprise and inspire you. Your dedication is truly commendable, and it's wonderful to hear that it's been such a meaningful part of your life. Keep on strumming and discovering, there's always something new to learn and enjoy. Thank you for sharing your passion! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@robertsuszek2327]

Thank you Tony, Be well.

[@GuitarME]

You're very welcome! Take care and stay well too. 👍

[@dirtyharry292]

Like these lessons where you get straight into it - well explained and cool. Thanks

[@GuitarME]

Thanks for your feedback! I'm glad you're enjoying my lessons! I appreciate it! 🎸🙌

[@billy100797]

Raindrops keep falling on my head

[@DreidMusicalX]

Exactly what I was hearing.

[@LesPaulJeff]

"Sad Caper" by Hootie and the Blowfish is a great song to play along with this progression.

[@tonymarchant9083]

Good result for Scotland too Tony 👍👍🍻

[@GuitarME]

Thanks! Cheers! 👍

[@pgrutube]

Give Me Love (Give Me Peace On Earth)

[@robertbrusellenglishguitarist]

[@gregsterc5294]

Very nice! Thank you for the great lesson!

[@GuitarME]

Thanks man! Glad you liked it!

[@sarahbethcohen2864]

Sounds like David Gates' "If"

[@edmundverwey617]

Lovely. I accidently added a Gm and it seem to sound beautiful going back to the A chord. I'm no expert, i just play for the fun of it. Thanks for uploading Tony. I've learnt something great thanks.

[@GuitarME]

Wonderful! Sometimes those accidental discoveries lead to the most beautiful moments. 😄 Keep having fun, man! I appreciate your support! Glad I could contribute to your guitar journey! 🎸

[@davidbriggs7123]

Super little lesson, thank you, 👍

[@GuitarME]

Thanks you so much! Cheers!

[@al5baggie937]

Love that! Thanks Tony.

[@user-ky6vw5up9m]

Something similar occurs in. “Everybody’s Talkin’. “

[@3rdalbum]

2:10 Isnt this the chord progression from Kiss Me by Sixpence None The Richer? (Although transposed up one tone - they play it in C)

[@morganowen875]

Nice one Tony !! Very nice

[@GuitarME]

Thanks, man! Glad you enjoyed it! 🙌🏻

[@robertr8736]

love these short videos. sometimes watch them without my guitar and try to recreate your licks from memory later but end up coming up with something a bit different. but no problem because thats the point right? love your content. keep up the amazing work

[@GuitarME]

Thank you so much for your support and kind words! It's awesome that you enjoy my lessons enough to try recreating the licks later. 🙌🏻 Creativity often takes unexpected turns, and that's part of the fun! I appreciate your encouragement, man! Keep rocking on!

[@johnyblandofoz952]

[@tonymarchant9083]

[@3rdalbum]

Kiss Me by Sixpence None The Richer.

[@noproblemguitar7395]

Beatles, Something

[@topangus123]

Sounds like Alabama, “My Home is in Alabama”.

[@sharky6128]

Great video, thanks 🎉❤

[@GuitarME]

You are so welcome! Thanks too!

[@Hugh_Manitee]

Do this with an A chord and you have "I was Only Jokin" by Rod Stewart.

[@ToddLewis-gd2yu]

Karl Wallinger, World party, "Love Street"

Jazzy and snazzy

[@GuitarME]

Thanks so much, man!

[@ernestazdajic8890]

[@keithhatton7761]

Great chord transition....I learnt it from Glen Campbell. Gentle on my mind.

[@CRUNCHCOLE]

Then after the G go to Gmin

[@rjaquaponics9266]

Whether its Kiss Me or not, this version is doable and learnable for people like me. I had a stroke and not all works... tuning is a challenge for me!

[@GuitarME]

That's fantastic! It's great that you're finding this lesson manageable. Just keep at it, my friend, take it one step at a time and keep up the great work! 😊
