Never played a guitar in my 51 years on this planet...always thought it was beyond my ability. Decided to pick up an acoustic a few months back. Since then I have followed several other online instructors as well as taken one on one lessons locally before finding this man. After just a couple of his video lessons, I am convinced Marty Schwartz can teach a blind man to see. His detailed, methodical approach just makes learning the guitar easier and more enjoyable. The man is magic as far as I'm concerned...I shall call him "The Magic Man".
Amazing tutorial, this took me fifteen minutes to learn . Probably another couple hours to really master. I've only been playing for a couple weeks. You sir are a born teacher and a master of the instrument
I love RUclips. First started playing in the 70's. I'm not great, or a rockstar, but when practiced up do sound pretty decent I must say. Back in my day, we'd often have to catch songs when they aired our favorite stations and write down a few more of the lyrics and progressions' sometimes for years. I kept spiral notebooks full of "in process " songs. Always has been a progressive, meditative tool & and good friend most my life. Coolist thing is many of my renditions were "close" and now with the advent of the internet I have, and still do to this day, rework more accurately those old masterpieces. Wow! I never new until a year or so ago that Kashmire was so beautifully simple. Sounds great. These lessons have helped me tremendously, to keep my one true love alive. What a friend- at the beach, campfires, parties, biker events, parks, downtown sidewalk benches (Romeo, Mich), family events, the list goes on and on, and on and on (it's a highway song...) Guitar has always helped me to easily feel part of the scene, to fit in, rather than be just a spectator. Made raising my three kids more fun too! Come on! Daddy taking the kids to the park, yeah, the beach! Can easily watch babies all day if I got a guitar to jam on. And women? Has served me well. Better than a puppy, or even Jack Daniels! (Eventually turning to 12 steps, of course. Shhhhh.) Right on!! (I'm 60) Mentally. Spiritually. Socially. It's like working on your own personal, lifelong puzzle. It also taught me humility- to not try to be better than you, rather to continuously be better than "me". I assure you I've run into 16 year olds who after two years of playing blow me away with a natural God given talen,way beyond what I will ever achieve, much less possess... Jealous? Never. Respect. Appreciate! Happy for them. Guitar has been a challenge with endless growth opportunities for me. I feel it's made me a better person. My God! Just reading this makes ME want to learn guitar- but then I remembered I already do!
Marty, you are the bomb!! 69 yes old..been playing since I was 12..never got much of any where..was t good @ figuring songs out on my own..your tutorials work for me!! Many thanks
🎶just fro e minor,....then straight bac to g🎶🎶but dont forget abou d yeah d d d,and back to C🎶"thank you we are the Chords ans here every week,come an C,but not if ur a Minor,🎶😆😆😁😆😆
I just bought my first guitar 2 hours ago, decided it's time to give that a try. I've played piano a long time ago but never tried a guitar. I'm 34 by the way. Anyway, I was browsing RUclips for lessons and stumbled upon your channel. I can already play a piece of "Sweet home Alabama" and now I'm learning this intro. I can only say you are a legend! Your way of teaching makes things really easy (to understand, still need a lot of practice) but I finally know what I need to do! I think I'll stick with your lessons and let you know how I go after a while! Thank you for doing this, you are a legend!!
I hope you've stuck with it, next year is my 1 year mark and Marty has honestly changed my life by getting me through enough songs that I can enjoy what I play and thus... keep learning. I'm 33 yrs old, it's never too late, nobody I know has less musical ability than me and still, I can learn everything Marty teaches. Incredible. His explanations and the way he sings the chords has me singing it along by accident.
Weirdly enough, I'm also 34 and I just started learning the guitar. And thanks to Marty I've pretty much got this part of the song down, wasn't that hard. Then I decided to give Metallica's "nothing else matters" a try - wow, now that is just waaaay beyond my paygrade. But I'm gonna keep trying, with a bit of help from this channel.
35yo just started think its a right of passage now I'm slowing down enjoy just my own time. Part of it for me was just my kids are getting a bit bigger their starting music, and its good for them to see dad learning something, struggling with something stuff not coming easily, having to put the practice in etc.
Marty, I must say you are an excellent teacher without a doubt. I used to play guitar in a band when I was a teenager and very early 20s before life took over and I put the guitar down. I’m 60 now and just started playing again, and I must say it’s not like riding a bike. I have been frustrated with myself over it, but since I found your channel, it has breathed new life into my fingertips. Not to mention some blisters too. I have picked up a few songs from you that I never played before and I am enjoying rediscovering the happiness that guitar playing does for me. I wish you well and look forward to your next posting. Thank you so much!!!
Hands down the best. The way he makes his intros. the way he breaks down exactly what you're doing and go slow for the chimps like me. He makes it look fun. He is such a inspiration.
When ever I want to learn a song I go straight to you. Best I have found. No nonsense, very easy to understand, and nice and slow. Thanks for a Great job.
I have been watching your videos since I started learning to play in 2008. Thank you for being an amazing human being and sharing your knowledge of this art with me and everyone else.
Think everyone has 😂 every tune I think of he pops up. Hes great to be fair. Love how chilled he is and funny at times with his ad libbing over chords.
Marty, you inspired me to go buy a guitar. When I was about 19 years old I took a few guitar lessons then quit because I couldn't tune the guitar. Now that tuning is easy with digital guitar tuners and youtube videos like yours, I've decided at age 66 to give it another try and I'm glad I did. Thanks so much. Oh buy the way the guitar I got is a Yamaha electric acoustic FGX800C and I love it.
Bravo!! I'm 70 and my husband is 75 and we play in one of the best damn bands in Central Florida - age means NOTHING! I can't imagine we will ever stop - we have played in bands together since we met in 1973. I wish you the best Bill S. Hope you continue to enjoy Marty's lessons, and I hope we can all help to support him, at least at some point.
Marty, I just want to say thank you so very much for this. I lost my Father to cancer, and all I wanted to do was play this song for him, and now I can. With much love and respect, thank you Sir.
You're the best Marty. I hadn't played guitar since I was 12, 50 years ago!!!!!!! I took lessons and had the Mel Bay book. I played Blowin in the Wind. Was not good. My mother told me to play the guitar at some family function. One mean uncle told my mother "Charlotte the kid can't play, don't waste your money. I put the guitar down, picked it up now as a Covid player. I'm taking lessons but you have taught me more than anyone ever has and now I'm good. Thank you so much.
Marty, I am a 63 year old beginner, and I really appreciate your easy to follow lessons!!! Your tutorials are the best I have seen out there! Thank you! 😃🤙🎸
Marty Music Hey Marty! I've learned quite a bit from you over the last year or so. if I search how to play any song, I always look for your lessons first. I really appreciate all of your help and I want to make a request. Will you please teach me Mouthful of Cavities by Blind Melon? There are other tutorials out there, but I'm not feeling it. Thank you for everything, kind sir!
I just want to say thank you. I started playing an old acoustic guitar my dad had bought from some guy in college who wanted money for pot. That guitar sat with only three strings for my brothers and my entire childhood until not too long ago I remembered it’s existence. The freedom I feel when I can play a tune, especially like Floyd, is immeasurable. So thank you Marty. Every time I go home the guitar is right besides me and my parents couldn’t be happier. “The most music that thing has EVER seen” -my dad
My daughter wanted me to play this song for her - her husband is on deployment in the Navy and it is “their song.” I have only been playing guitar for about 6 months and now thanks to you I can play this song for her! Do you have a tutorial for the very last part - it was so cool how you ended it! Thank you!
It's definitely a special song. I'm a marine and I listed to this song, hey you, and comfortably numb on the way to my wedding that early morning. Lyrics may not scream wedding day for sure 😂 but every song conveys so much strong emotion
I know I’m 5 years late, but this is a song I learned the basic chords for over 20 years ago, and I finally get it. I can’t thank you enough for this amazing lesson.
Marty I picked up a guitar 6 months ago and was immediately drawn to your charisma and excitement of teaching. You make it easy when you breakdown songs. You have such a talent for instructing. I appreciate what you do to help others of all abilities enjoy the guitar to the fullest. Much love brother!
Hey man, I have been playing guitar pretty much my whole life and my mother taught me the intro to this when I was little. I just wanna appreciate your video, it's helping me learn the whole song so I can play it for her. She had surgery on her hand and cannot bend her fingers certain ways, leaving her unable to play anymore. Hopefully it will bring some joy and good memories to hear the song that she taught me. Much love man, thank you🤘🏻♥️
My 4th month with Marty one hour a day! I think I did the most difficult part. I have started to think I can actually be a mid level guitar player if I continue this rhythm for a year! This song looked so difficult month ago but now after 4 months training it looks much easier!
I started playing at 16 (LONG TIME AGO). I played a lot for years and was self taught. So, I learned how to play songs...not guitar per se. I started with the seven beginner acoustic lessons and now onto this. I'm having a blast playing again! Marty is awesome! Wish I would have had teacher like in back in the day. I might have never put it down.
Sir you are a master, I have literally been playing one day, I watched all your beginner videos and now I am able play the intro. Thank you Sir, I have been wanting to learn guitar for a long while and now I have found an amazing channel to do so with.
I’ve struggled to play an entire song through until this tutorial! I just played my first complete song, and it happens to be one of my all time favorites! On a guitar high 😍 Thank you so much Marty!
Marty I know you probably don't really look at old comments but I just wanna say thank you my grandma loved pink Floyd and she really liked this song, and I wanted to learn it cause she recently passed away and I feel like I should atleast learn this song for her thank you Marty you are it not the greatest guitar teacher ever
I am 69 years old and always wanted to play guitar and learn this (and other) Pink Floyd songs. Marty is fantastic and I can't thank him enough for the really clear (and patient) approach to teaching. Makes lessons easy and fun! Keep on doing what you are doing .....
you mean the chords? they are just simple "open" chords, it's pretty easy to learn them, their names are just letters, in my opinion drums seem impossible haha
I started playing guitar around 9 years old, sadly by 13 or 14 I gave up and sold all my equipment. Being 24 years old now, I regret that decision terribly. I recently purchased an amp and my friends fender squier strat. This is the first song I’m learning since I last played in 2013. These videos have been a blessing, I feel like my old self playing again. I’m at the solo part now!
Every time I watch a marty video I cant stop practicing my guitar. He makes it fun to learn and it's so satisfying hitting the right notes and chords. About 2 weeks of practice and I can already play most of the open chords! Thanks Marty!
This is fantastic.. I’m a beginner one month but this tune is my goal to play.. thank you so much.. I’ll be on this daily.. you explain it simply and I’ll probably watch it 1000 times..lol
Man, thank you. Seriously I’ve been wanting to get into guitar for so long. My grandpa even gifted me his guitar before he passed away and it’s always collected dust. I’m finally playing it, and truly appreciating the gift I was given, thanks for being a great teacher.
Thanks for this video Marty.This is the best tutorial for this song.I like this song on guitar now more than ever,and I am 55 now.I didn't care for Pink Floyd so much when I first heard them.The Wall,I didn't really care for,but this song is a masterpiece.Such an emotional song,really got you thinking about sad events.Everyone has heard this song,a song for all ages.Thanks brother.
Out of all the other guitar teachers online that I have seen, Marty you are my favorite by far. You seem to have a great understanding of what beginners like me need to know and treat us like friends. Thanks. You might not like me if we were in a room together because I would keep telling you to repeat yourself over and over and I would try to slow you down to '0.25' a lot, but due to the magic of youtube, I can do it all and still get the Magic Marty lessons at my speed. Love ya, man.
@@applecideriscool9455 she’s still alive. She just chose drugs and bad life decisions over me and is never around. I really miss having a mom sometimes. Before she gave up custody of me she always listened to this song.
Thank you so much man. I have a rough break up behind me and this song comforts me so much in my pain in grief. And thanks to you i can now also learn it to play it myself
Marty - I really appreciate your incredibly user-friendly approach. Whenever I'm looking to learn a new tune, I always look to see if you've done it - so thanks!
Having really shitty guitar lessons in my youth. I was forced 3 instruments and did learn to read music well. I love your lessons. I have my late dads guitar and I am really playing after 2 months. I followed your advice, my mom gave me a stand. I play at least 30 minutes a day. The progress is unbelievable. I still think I suck but my husband is in disbelief (he always calls me when I suck). He keeps recording my progress. I appreciate your lessons. I feel the progress, it is leaps and bounds. I have so many chord shapes, I memorized so many notes, I can tune and follow by ear. Thank you for the short cuts, confidence, and allowing all those old shitty lessons to make sense. Im still sometimes confused, but i can work it out with your lessons.
Marty has been teaching me guitar since 2009 in Iraq. He’s the best. People ask me to teach them how to play and I just tell them to look up Marty. I bought his rock solo videos a few years ago and although I haven’t completed them I felt like even if I never opened the package I had still gotten my money’s worth out of Marty. Thanks for keeping it simple for us man!!
Marty, you are the man. Been watching your videos since i was a teenager, I just turned 30! Not going anywhere, you're my favourite source for tunes to learn. Keep it up dude Absolute don 👌
So cool, Marty! The art of making these great songs reachable for this big bunch of clumsy "guitar players"! I close my eyes and I can feel the 50'000 viewers in my concert vibrating with my intro! So thankful...
I’ve fought with major depression my entire life and now embarking a career within the military I found your videos so helpful to pursue something I’ve always dreamed of doing to fill that void, thanks
Yo Marty! I haven’t played guitar in a good 3 years now but my girlfriends dad really likes Pink Floyd so I’ve bought a cheap acoustic and I’m gonna learn this so I can play it for him. Thank you so so so much for making this!
This guy breaks things down and explains the guitar really well! I've learned more from him than I did paying for expensive lessons. Thankfully I'm not paying for those anymore!
Retired last year and had more time to break out the old Martin. Thanks so much for inspiring me to play every day. Enjoy your videos so much, easy to follow, and nice selection of songs. Are their any videos of you on stage, and personal request, r. Cash Tennessee Flat top. Always love that lick. Anyway thanks for all you do. New subscriber TIM
I have recently picked up guitar again as well, in my mid 60's and much more motivated now. Sometimes I wonder if I'm too old, but have always been told, "never too old". I absolutely love Marty and his wonderful teaching abilities.
I'm an absolute beginner with a guitar and this is the best video I've seen to teach myself one of my absolute favourites. Thanks, Marty! Wish the newer "Shallow" video was catered to noobs like me a bit more :-)
Wish you were here - Marty to see the progress I've made with your lessons. You're a GREAT teacher. All your videos are awesome country, rock, rhythm and blues. I'm constantly amazed with your natural talents as a teacher. Thank you Marty.
i’ve been practicing and it’s so nice to see the advancement in skill!! my fingers do be bruising tho from how much i’ve been practicing 😂 when i first watched this video i was so annoyed because i thought i couldn’t do it and i kept putting it off but now i’m almost halfway through the song!
Just Before I heard one of those 'RUclips Is Bad, Use Fender-play or whatever to learn guitar' ads. Before I use to go searching for videos. I thought trying to learn guitar song on RUclips is useless. But when I found one of your videos it turned all around. I found this and learn all the rock songs and stuff that I now know and can play. You are the best guitar teacher on youtube. I learnt all these songs just from watching your videos. Thanks Marty...
No matter who I watch to learn something on guitar I always come back to Marty! I just gotta see how Marty does it! I always look at others just to see how they do it and come back here to learn it!
Marty Music Rocks...Your Videos Changed my Whole Life. I am a percussionist turned guitar player as of March 2017..Thanks Man..You Rock, Thanks for Sharing! Scotty B.
This guy is a good teacher. I have seen other videos that are really hard to follow for a beginner like me that knows absolutely nothing about guitar. Thaks
I think it's safe to say anyone who has taught anything to themselves on a guitar knows this guy
Jacob Shaw without a doubt. i learned Come As You Are by Nirvana for my first song on guitar and learned it from Marty. he's the best
@@chrisaustin3510 same! literally the exact same song
It's completely safe to say that
my first song was highway to hell from this guy

You're like the Bob Ross of guitar lessons.

Keep it up!
Amazing tutorial, this took me fifteen minutes to learn . Probably another couple hours to really master. I've only been playing for a couple weeks. You sir are a born teacher and a master of the instrument

Marty singing the chord progression always cracks me up. Good stuff my man
Oh god, it is too funny. I was laughing too much after I had heard "Then we goooo baaack to C, don't forget the G"
“Do you think you can G” had me 😂
Yeah thats what a lot of teachers reccomend trying,sing the chords just like that,

This song is the whole reason I bought a guitar. May not be difficult, or even inspiring, but it soothes my soul whenever I listen to this song.
I just want to say thank you. I started playing an old acoustic guitar my dad had bought from some guy in college who wanted money for pot. That guitar sat with only three strings for my brothers and my entire childhood until not too long ago I remembered it’s existence. The freedom I feel when I can play a tune, especially like Floyd, is immeasurable. So thank you Marty. Every time I go home the guitar is right besides me and my parents couldn’t be happier.
“The most music that thing has EVER seen” -my dad
I cannot overstate how much I love when you sing the chord changes. It is both educational and hilarious.
My daughter wanted me to play this song for her - her husband is on deployment in the Navy and it is “their song.” I have only been playing guitar for about 6 months and now thanks to you I can play this song for her! Do you have a tutorial for the very last part - it was so cool how you ended it! Thank you!
Probably has something to do with the solo on his other wish your were here video
All you need to do is look up the chords for the rest of the song 😃
@@jdubb5394 You look em up wise guy.
@@coolhand8504 I did
It's definitely a special song. I'm a marine and I listed to this song, hey you, and comfortably numb on the way to my wedding that early morning. Lyrics may not scream wedding day for sure 😂 but every song conveys so much strong emotion
One of my favourite pink floyd songs. Being a beginner, I was almost able to replicate this, achievement unlocked. Thanks Marty!
I know I’m 5 years late, but this is a song I learned the basic chords for over 20 years ago, and I finally get it. I can’t thank you enough for this amazing lesson.
Marty I picked up a guitar 6 months ago and was immediately drawn to your charisma and excitement of teaching. You make it easy when you breakdown songs. You have such a talent for instructing. I appreciate what you do to help others of all abilities enjoy the guitar to the fullest. Much love brother!
Hey man, I have been playing guitar pretty much my whole life and my mother taught me the intro to this when I was little. I just wanna appreciate your video, it's helping me learn the whole song so I can play it for her. She had surgery on her hand and cannot bend her fingers certain ways, leaving her unable to play anymore. Hopefully it will bring some joy and good memories to hear the song that she taught me. Much love man, thank you🤘🏻♥️
My dad used to always play this for me and it’s the reason I wanted to play guitar. Thanks Marty!
My 4th month with Marty one hour a day! I think I did the most difficult part. I have started to think I can actually be a mid level guitar player if I continue this rhythm for a year! This song looked so difficult month ago but now after 4 months training it looks much easier!
I started playing at 16 (LONG TIME AGO). I played a lot for years and was self taught. So, I learned how to play songs...not guitar per se.
I started with the seven beginner acoustic lessons and now onto this. I'm having a blast playing again! Marty is awesome! Wish I would have had teacher like in back in the day. I might have never put it down.
10:50 is when chords start
copperbonker I love you
Thank you 🙏
Cheers
Careful he’s a hero
Thank you
Sir you are a master, I have literally been playing one day, I watched all your beginner videos and now I am able play the intro.
Thank you Sir, I have been wanting to learn guitar for a long while and now I have found an amazing channel to do so with.
i loved the way u explained the chords by singing out their names on the tune..... i could relate faster.... nice work man
My favorite part of Marty tutorials is when he sings to the tune of the song but explaining the chord/note to play 😂 love it
Do you think you can g
I like that you are singing the chords :D
Hippy Shake that was the best part of the whole video
I’ve struggled to play an entire song through until this tutorial! I just played my first complete song, and it happens to be one of my all time favorites! On a guitar high 😍 Thank you so much Marty!

“You can’t learn guitar from RUclips” shut the fuck up martys cool
Livvy BackupAccount hahahahhaha
Marty I know you probably don't really look at old comments but I just wanna say thank you my grandma loved pink Floyd and she really liked this song, and I wanted to learn it cause she recently passed away and I feel like I should atleast learn this song for her thank you Marty you are it not the greatest guitar teacher ever
I am 69 years old and always wanted to play guitar and learn this (and other) Pink Floyd songs. Marty is fantastic and I can't thank him enough for the really clear (and patient) approach to teaching. Makes lessons easy and fun! Keep on doing what you are doing .....
The sequence for the cords is: C D Am G D C Am G
You generous soul
Thank you very much
Thank you very much
Strumming pattern?
Thanks
I play the drums and just watching this makes so confused. How do guitar players know all these notes? It’s truly amazing.
you mean the chords? they are just simple "open" chords, it's pretty easy to learn them, their names are just letters, in my opinion drums seem impossible haha
You just kinda do it idk it's not that hard it just looks hard
Connor Jardine haha I feel appreciated😂
It just takes a little time. Doesn't take long to learn simple chords at all. Just learn those and you can make a simple little song.
a7sus4: Am I a joke to you?
I started playing guitar around 9 years old, sadly by 13 or 14 I gave up and sold all my equipment. Being 24 years old now, I regret that decision terribly. I recently purchased an amp and my friends fender squier strat. This is the first song I’m learning since I last played in 2013. These videos have been a blessing, I feel like my old self playing again. I’m at the solo part now!
Every time I watch a marty video I cant stop practicing my guitar. He makes it fun to learn and it's so satisfying hitting the right notes and chords. About 2 weeks of practice and I can already play most of the open chords! Thanks Marty!
This is fantastic.. I’m a beginner one month but this tune is my goal to play.. thank you so much.. I’ll be on this daily.. you explain it simply and I’ll probably watch it 1000 times..lol
Man, thank you. Seriously I’ve been wanting to get into guitar for so long. My grandpa even gifted me his guitar before he passed away and it’s always collected dust. I’m finally playing it, and truly appreciating the gift I was given, thanks for being a great teacher.
Plays whole intro through
8:50
Any song I want to learn, I add Marty music after the title. Dude, you’re the best.
Thanks for this video Marty.This is the best tutorial for this song.I like this song on guitar now more than ever,and I am 55 now.I didn't care for Pink Floyd so much when I first heard them.The Wall,I didn't really care for,but this song is a masterpiece.Such an emotional song,really got you thinking about sad events.Everyone has heard this song,a song for all ages.Thanks brother.
It's my first song ... Can't express my happiness playing Pink Floyd 😭 ... Thanks for this brother 🙏🏼
I'm a total beginner and he is one of my favorites on youtube...less frustration and more fun :)
Out of all the other guitar teachers online that I have seen, Marty you are my favorite by far. You seem to have a great understanding of what beginners like me need to know and treat us like friends. Thanks. You might not like me if we were in a room together because I would keep telling you to repeat yourself over and over and I would try to slow you down to '0.25' a lot, but due to the magic of youtube, I can do it all and still get the Magic Marty lessons at my speed. Love ya, man.
I’m learning this bc my mom loves this song. I wish she was here:(
I'm sorry for your loss :( Make sure to play this to always remember her :)
@@applecideriscool9455 she’s still alive. She just chose drugs and bad life decisions over me and is never around. I really miss having a mom sometimes. Before she gave up custody of me she always listened to this song.
Thats a mood :(
Hope things get better.
@@andresperez8658 thank you. Hope everything is good for you as well
Thank you so much man. I have a rough break up behind me and this song comforts me so much in my pain in grief. And thanks to you i can now also learn it to play it myself
I love you. I am a TOTAL beginner, never played on guitar ... but with this video I could finally play my beloved song
Marty - I really appreciate your incredibly user-friendly approach. Whenever I'm looking to learn a new tune, I always look to see if you've done it - so thanks!
Most beautiful cords in music history I can’t wait to learn this thank you so much 😊 time to get myself a guitar!
Do it!! Don't wait. Life is sooooo short. I have a feeling you'll be terrific.
Having really shitty guitar lessons in my youth. I was forced 3 instruments and did learn to read music well. I love your lessons. I have my late dads guitar and I am really playing after 2 months. I followed your advice, my mom gave me a stand. I play at least 30 minutes a day. The progress is unbelievable. I still think I suck but my husband is in disbelief (he always calls me when I suck). He keeps recording my progress. I appreciate your lessons. I feel the progress, it is leaps and bounds. I have so many chord shapes, I memorized so many notes, I can tune and follow by ear. Thank you for the short cuts, confidence, and allowing all those old shitty lessons to make sense. Im still sometimes confused, but i can work it out with your lessons.
This was one of my Nona's favourite songs. She passed away recently, and this song hits so different now. Rest in Peace ;(
Rest In Peace
Want to say thanks u opened up a new level of my guitar playing by showing slow detailed lessons much appreciated keep on rocking
Marty has been teaching me guitar since 2009 in Iraq. He’s the best. People ask me to teach them how to play and I just tell them to look up Marty. I bought his rock solo videos a few years ago and although I haven’t completed them I felt like even if I never opened the package I had still gotten my money’s worth out of Marty. Thanks for keeping it simple for us man!!
Marty, you are the man. Been watching your videos since i was a teenager, I just turned 30!
Not going anywhere, you're my favourite source for tunes to learn. Keep it up dude
Absolute don 👌
You are a legend. I love your style and attitude Mr. Marty. Way too cool for this world.
very kind of you to say. Also, thanks for supporting my new project "MartyMusic" www.RUclips.com/MartyMusicOfficial
So cool, Marty! The art of making these great songs reachable for this big bunch of clumsy "guitar players"! I close my eyes and I can feel the 50'000 viewers in my concert vibrating with my intro! So thankful...
I’ve fought with major depression my entire life and now embarking a career within the military I found your videos so helpful to pursue something I’ve always dreamed of doing to fill that void, thanks
I wish you the best of luck!
my son has learnt this as his first song on the guitar during lockdown its a great song.
I don't know how people can learn without you. You are the man!!👍👊👊
I really appreciate that Ian! Thanks for following me here at "MartyMusic"
I haven't seen you in years! Time is kind to you, Marty.
Yo Marty! I haven’t played guitar in a good 3 years now but my girlfriends dad really likes Pink Floyd so I’ve bought a cheap acoustic and I’m gonna learn this so I can play it for him. Thank you so so so much for making this!
Do you think you can G?
blue skyes from G
Heaven A minor
How i see the D!
I was looking for such comment :D
Actually laughed pretty hard at this
This guy breaks things down and explains the guitar really well! I've learned more from him than I did paying for expensive lessons. Thankfully I'm not paying for those anymore!
Retired last year and had more time to break out the old Martin. Thanks so much for inspiring me to play every day. Enjoy your videos so much, easy to follow, and nice selection of songs. Are their any videos of you on stage, and personal request, r. Cash Tennessee Flat top. Always love that lick. Anyway thanks for all you do. New subscriber TIM
Tim Howell Bet you're glad now that you held onto that old Martin 😀
yo dad
one of the best from Johnny cash/june "bug" carter😀
REALLY!!
I have recently picked up guitar again as well, in my mid 60's and much more motivated now. Sometimes I wonder if I'm too old, but have always been told, "never too old". I absolutely love Marty and his wonderful teaching abilities.
I'm an absolute beginner with a guitar and this is the best video I've seen to teach myself one of my absolute favourites. Thanks, Marty! Wish the newer "Shallow" video was catered to noobs like me a bit more :-)
Wish you were here - Marty to see the progress I've made with your lessons. You're a GREAT teacher. All your videos are awesome country, rock, rhythm and blues. I'm constantly amazed with your natural talents as a teacher. Thank you Marty.
Could we get some more Floyd? Astronomy Domine or Time would be cool
I agree lol
Jacob Pekrul me too!! Anything else by Floyd please!!
Nicolas Vargas what about another brick in the wall
how about bike, that's my fav
Lucifer Sam
i’ve been practicing and it’s so nice to see the advancement in skill!! my fingers do be bruising tho from how much i’ve been practicing 😂
when i first watched this video i was so annoyed because i thought i couldn’t do it and i kept putting it off but now i’m almost halfway through the song!
Just Before I heard one of those 'RUclips Is Bad, Use Fender-play or whatever to learn guitar' ads. Before I use to go searching for videos. I thought trying to learn guitar song on RUclips is useless. But when I found one of your videos it turned all around. I found this and learn all the rock songs and stuff that I now know and can play. You are the best guitar teacher on youtube. I learnt all these songs just from watching your videos. Thanks Marty...
This is great... I love this. i have been playing for couple months now and if it wasn't for you I would be frustrated from not being able to play...
Isaac Newton I totally agree
I just started playing today for the first time and i almost know the entire song already! Amazing tutorial, really makes you understand. Good job :)
you have the best teaching site Marty,...hope you made a ton of dinero with this site...

No matter who I watch to learn something on guitar I always come back to Marty! I just gotta see how Marty does it! I always look at others just to see how they do it and come back here to learn it!
This is one of the 1st songs I am learning for Guitar Journey V2.0. It's really not to hard and really satisfying to play. THANKS MARTY!!!
Marty Music Rocks...Your Videos Changed my Whole Life. I am a percussionist turned guitar player as of March 2017..Thanks Man..You Rock, Thanks for Sharing! Scotty B.
Thank you so much!
2 beers, 4 am, acoustic on the balcony in a medicinal mj state. This instructional is the vibe for sure. Love the licks in between chords
"So you think you can G" on a T-shirt please.
woah man, I just learned to play one of my all-time favorite songs in less than three hours
This guy is a good teacher. I have seen other videos that are really hard to follow for a beginner like me that knows absolutely nothing about guitar. Thaks
