Let’s face it…. How many times have the majority of us relied upon Marty to teach us a song. Maybe he’s been your go to guy for years….. or possibly this is your first time here… Either way, I’ve been visiting Marty’s channel for well over a decade and see his channel as one of those too good to be true kind of thing… The content he offers for free and the personal friendly way it’s presented has been a huge part of my guitar playing experience… I’ve always loved the sound of a guitar,and when I finally stopped attempting to play as if I were someone other than myself, I fell in love with it.. Marty definitely inspired me and help guide me through the years…. I feel as if I haven’t and could never repay Marty for the help and support. Show some Love out there.. The world needs it..
This is weirdly nostalgic. This was the first video (outside of his acoustic guitar lessons) that I watched. Been playing guitar for a year now and I'm way better than I used to be, I remember struggling so hard to get those beginner chords down, now I can play them no problem. Shows you how practice really does make perfect.
Every guitarist I’ve met rolls their eyes when I play zombie because apparently it’s an overplayed noob song but as a decent guitarist I couldn’t give a shit it’s lit 🔥
I feel ya, hate guitar players that try to flex their skills. Riffs don't have to be hard to play to be good. Rammstein is a perfect example, some of the easiest riffs you'll ever play but they hit like a truck.
Hey Marty, Life is too short so my girlfriend and I decided to take early retirement from work, bought a campervan and started to travel around the UK and Europe. As a project I recently started to learn to play acoustic guitar as something to do on rainy days in the Campervan and I am having lessons from someone I know who is in a band. I found your channel on RUclips which really compliments the way that I am being taught. I really like the way that you break down songs in to simple chords and strumming. It is perfect for me and I just wanted to say thanks for sharing this and after looking at tons of different RUclips channels, your's is the best that I have found for me as a beginner.
I lost the feeling for playing 4 years ago, because of the frustration over difficult songs and it didn't seem that i was ever going to learn anything. But then, i saw yours, Marty, videos in here and started to play again. And now i can play Metallica, Deep Purple, The Cranberries thanks to you! You, sir, deserve all the credit and respect for the wonderful thing you are doing! Greetings from Finland!
We are from warrington where the bombs that killed the two boys encouraged Delores to write this song. It was such a horrible time. Peace, love and light xx
This is such a great lesson, I have already learned the chords in under and hour I just need to muster up the courage to play since my parents are home and they like to embarrass me. I also just need to learn the pattern and I think i'll be golden!
Love playing theis song!! As an alternative to the "D" chord, I just drop from the "G" chord, to a "G/F#". From the "G" drop go to first finger on the second fret of the low "E" string, with second finger on the second of the "A". You can still play the high notes, but emphasize the low notes for those two bars, so you really really hear that step down!! But either way, it is a great song to play, and sing!!
Marty you are a legend! I honestly never thought I'd actually be able to play a song other people may be able to recognise...even if they were trying to be very favourable to me! So a huge thank you
Thanks a lot for this tutorial! I had my guitar (folk) Epiphone 1 week ago and I’m starting my journey to learn this beautiful art. I’ll start to learn this song right now ❤
This was actually my first song I learned how to play and from that I have grown so much thanks to your videos I can play a lot from slipknot to the Beatles to sublime and I really am grateful
i used to play guitar for a couple years when i was younger. i stopped for a few years after i went to secondary school. i started playing again today and i acc managed to play the whole songs thanks to you. you’re tutorials are LIFE savers
Loving your tutorials. The lockdown has made me pick up the acoustic that was just sitting on the stand for a year looking pretty and I`m now playing along. Thanks Marty!
Wow, just wow. Just when I was about to give up on the guitar, telling myself that it just needs a huge amount of skill. I found this and learned it within a day. Thanks for the motivation and easy instruction Marty!
Sup marty, to be honest you have helped me learn many songs. I thank you for your helpful videos. Oh yeah my niece says thank you for teaching me her favorite songs! Good job on the vids and please keep making them
As a proud Irish man just starting out on my guitar adventure I subscribed to Marty after watching his first acoustic guitar tutorial... your top class Marty ... and cranberries "zombie" is a tune iv always wanted to play so thanks for this video in a few weeks when I'm better at changing cords il dive right in to this. Thanks agen
I just started playing guitar about 3 weeks ago. Literally everything i know i have learned from you marty. Thank you for doing these videos. You are helping me to fulfill a life long dream of learning 🎸
I’ve been playing guitar for a year and a half I played everyday so I sound like a played for longer y’all beginners can do it I thought I couldn’t but I can now Hardwork you
omg , you made me smile today... first guitar... best lesson ever... just relaxing to be able to play ... I so needed that because my grandmom and I are going trough some difficult stages of life and this is the first time watching , subalert :) , c u next time and thank you soooo much!
I've just my son his first guitar and shown him a few chords. Then, I shared a link to this as the chords are the same as I've shown him and told him to subscribe to Marty as he is, in my humble opinion, the best guitar teacher for beginners on here hands down 😎
Thanks Marty, never thought I'd be one to pick up a guitar and try to learn to play but here I am! This is the first video I decided to watch and you made it so easy to learn how to play... Going to subscribe and hopefully learn many more along the way!
as always, Marty, thank you for being a wonderful and nice guy teaching us, the noobs (and helll maybe even some pros), out here how to play some amazing hits from all ages.
It’s been 3 years since I first watched this tutorial and it just popped up recently as my most recommended video since I started to learn guitar again thanks so much for all the great tutorials you made.
I was learned to play D chord with my thumb pressing 6th string on second fret and muting 5th string. So it's like F#/D chord. Not sure if it's right, but here's tab for this chord: 2x0323
hey marty!! i dont know if you'll ever see this but i was wondering if you could do a tutorial on a song called chalk outlines by ren. it's one of my favourite songs and its so meaningful and i would kill to be able to play it. thank you for being the guitar teacher i never had😭🙏
Good Easy lesson, but I think the one thing most people get wrong is that after you go from the "G" chord the next chord isn't a "D".. Instead pick up the "F#" base note. What you really have as a walking baseline that needs to drop to that F#,
I thought my guitar was busted out of the box for a year until I found Marty thanks to his lessons I actually make music hahaha it's crazy thank you Marty you the man!!!!
As a beginner guitarist, I really resent that you call this "easy acoustic" because I find these chord changes hard AF! I fear I may never get out of the suck phase and just have to quit this stupid guitar and go back to doing what I already know how to do well which is playing drums.
I started playing guitar three days ago and I just learned this in a few minutes I think you should practice these chords one by one and then try again don't give up!
Heyyyy morty! How about Yellow Ledbetter by Pearl Jam??? I’d like it to also have the guitar solo. I’d think that’d be a great video especially for lead guitar. Give it some thought plz. Great vid btw!
@martymusic thanks man you're the best my go to when I need to learn a song doing a bunch of covers of stuff I don't know and I can always count on you to nail it.
Used your tutorials when i first started guitar 10 years ago and now whenever i pick up the guitar again, still finding them useful! Really appreciate the content :) thanks!
I love that you have so so much for beginners i recommend you to anyone just started out. I feel though as i have far outgrown your lessons, lets see some more advanced stuff.
Watch the strings closely and keep pausing and research the string names. There are just 4 chords. The trick is pause and remind what you don't understand and learning it one chord at a time
I just found your site, I'm so excited!! I'm teaching myself guitar finally after all these years !I'm 38 and ready to do it I've watched three of your videos so far and already jamming some stuff out and definitely sticking with you!! you make it simple and fun you rock thank you!!

As a beginner both times I’ve tried to learn a song it’s been from him
Guitar broke watching one of his vids, took 2 years to get a new one somehow but im glad to revisit his channel for surw
Wow thanks so much for the kind words - really appreciate it!!!
Marty’s the goat

@@Trifixion22 I wish you good luck!
@@layne05 thanks brother, much appreciated!
absolutely! i’ve played since 2016 and practice takes you a long way! takes you to the finish line one day. 🤍 dont stop playing! ever!!!!
And here I start my journey one week in and starting onto this song excited as heck for the future with guitar
Every guitarist I’ve met rolls their eyes when I play zombie because apparently it’s an overplayed noob song but as a decent guitarist I couldn’t give a shit it’s lit 🔥

And he doesn't even play it right.
as someone who enjoys music a lot, i dont care if the song is easy to play. if its pleasant to the ears, i will appreciate it
I play the Guitar since I was 6 years old, and I'd never roll my eyes to such a great masterpiece
Other guitarists arent your audience, just because something is more complicated doesn't make it better

I was looking for how to play “Zombie” by the Cranberries bc I have a guitar project for class. This helped a lot, your so talented! ;))
xOtakuSenpaix • how did it go?

You can still play the high notes, but emphasize the low notes for those two bars, so you really really hear that step down!! But either way, it is a great song to play, and sing!!
Yeah I think that's the correct way and it sounds better
I have 0 musical talent, and your tutorials are the only thing I can actually follow to learn!. You make it so easy :)
Marty you are a legend! I honestly never thought I'd actually be able to play a song other people may be able to recognise...even if they were trying to be very favourable to me! So a huge thank you

You just taught me how to play my very first song EVER !!! Thanks a million Marty 🙂
Sure boooy !!
Aye man u r teaching me better than people in person do u rock bruh
How do you switch the chords smoothly? I can't figure it out 😕
it definitely helps if you practice, just work on changing the chords quicker and memorising the chord shapes :)
Just practice what I did was played E A D over and over then it kinds clicked
the fact that you use so much time and energy to learn peopme guitar is amazing and its really goo quality. as a beginner i truely apreciate you.
The whole song is basically
EM, C, G, D
All goods
Strumming ?
Wait, is the DDD DU DDD DU for only one chord or DDD for first DU for second etc?
@@jovanobradovic9103 for only one chord DDD DU DDD DU
Just beginning. With a new acoustic, great start on A Horse With No Name. Loving it
I was learned to play D chord with my thumb pressing 6th string on second fret and muting 5th string. So it's like F#/D chord. Not sure if it's right, but here's tab for this chord: 2x0323
yes that is definitely an option here. Thanks
you're welcome, sir :)
Then I slide from 2 fret to 10th fret and then just continue on em
Marty is the best! Been learning from him forever. Thanks for the tremendous amount of effort and content over the years.
hey marty!!
i dont know if you'll ever see this but i was wondering if you could do a tutorial on a song called chalk outlines by ren. it's one of my favourite songs and its so meaningful and i would kill to be able to play it. thank you for being the guitar teacher i never had😭🙏
This is where quarantine led me into😂❤️ finally decided to play the guitar that i was given as a gift from 3 years ago
Hey marty, whay do you think about ritchie blackmore?
Good Easy lesson, but I think the one thing most people get wrong is that after you go from the "G" chord the next chord isn't a "D".. Instead pick up the "F#" base note. What you really have as a walking baseline that needs to drop to that F#,
Hey Marty, you should do some of the new foo fighter stuff if possible - keep up the good work!
I thought my guitar was busted out of the box for a year until I found Marty thanks to his lessons I actually make music hahaha it's crazy thank you Marty you the man!!!!
I love all your tutorials marty! You've helped me out a lot especially with the scale ones and I love this song! Can you do Sober by Tool?
Love this one. Awesome song and perfect for helping me keep my strumming, timing, and simple chord changes down.
Strumming is so ducking hard
@@frez5282 I couldn't agree more lol. Nothing I do keeps my pick in my fingers :(
Hey, Morrrtyyyyy
Another quick and amazing lesson from Marty, love to see it!
Man there is so many songs played with this same chords in the same order.. awesome lesson
There's me starting to play this at 4 and now it's 7 and I still have to make myself dinner! Man I love this, Marty, you are the best
As a beginner guitarist, I really resent that you call this "easy acoustic" because I find these chord changes hard AF! I fear I may never get out of the suck phase and just have to quit this stupid guitar and go back to doing what I already know how to do well which is playing drums.
I started playing guitar three days ago and I just learned this in a few minutes I think you should practice these chords one by one and then try again don't give up!
It's just a matter of time buddy, soon you'll change chords without even thinking about it
Small consistent effort. Don't give up! One day you will surprise yourself!
you are the hands down the best guitar teacher ever
Heyyyy morty! How about Yellow Ledbetter by Pearl Jam??? I’d like it to also have the guitar solo. I’d think that’d be a great video especially for lead guitar. Give it some thought plz. Great vid btw!
Blonde Toast I agree
Thank you. I love this song now i can play it all the time!!!!
Hey Marty, do you think you can do some cage the elephant songs?
@martymusic thanks man you're the best my go to when I need to learn a song doing a bunch of covers of stuff I don't know and I can always count on you to nail it.
Love your Music Marty! Thanks for the help!

Amongst the most worth it time I’ve spent on RUclips lol thanks 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 seriously
Some guy named Ritchie called said, "tell Marty to teach the solo from Smoke on the Water".
Just learning some Cranberries songs to pay my respects. Much love for these lessons Marty.
my guitar sounds like horseshit WHAT KIND OF STRINGS YOU USED I AM USING LIGHT ONES and WHAT DID YOU TUNE EACH CHORD TO
I love that you have so so much for beginners i recommend you to anyone just started out. I feel though as i have far outgrown your lessons, lets see some more advanced stuff.
Marty. You read my mind again😂👍
This is one of my favorite songs and I am hopefully going to get a guitar soon so this is really helpful!
Please do a vid on black dog by Led Zeppelin
he already did this one I think
This is one of my favorite songs to jam out too and it’s one of the first songs I learned. It’s pretty cool!
Play first 25 seconds at 1.75 speed
The guitar world wouldn't be the same without Marty man.
As a beginner, i couldnt follow any of this.
Watch the strings closely and keep pausing and research the string names. There are just 4 chords. The trick is pause and remind what you don't understand and learning it one chord at a time
I think this will be my 2nd song thank you 💜
Great lesson Marty, love how you play it slow. And give the up down parts of the song. As always thanks
Best of tutorials and very clear.
Tha best one for rhis song.
Great lesson marty! I am watching you for only 2 years now because im only 12. But I learned everithing I know on a guitar from you.
