As the guy tabbing all your songs, I'd say he's definitely top 3 on your channel when it comes to picking. Great technique, nice riffs. Chords and lyrics below folks. Have fun trying to play what he does. Apart from the last 30 seconds or so, it isn't as complicated as it seems when you use Open D tuning like he does to get the general idea of the picking right. Open D tuning, no Capo These are obviously just the basic chords he uses. Tons of fingerpicking, hammer-ons and pull-offs involved. Just take these chords as a starting point G is played as full barree on 5th fret, A as full barree on 7th fret Intro D G D A / D G D A D Verses D / G D / D / A / D / G D / D / A G D Interlude D Chorus G / G / D / A G D Interlude 2 D Outro D / G D / G D / A G D / D [Intro] [Verse 1] Well I was born in the shipyards But I grew up on the plains The wind shook the trees making them speak to me So that I could remember their names My father he'd tell me to keep my head down And to never cause a sign Then he would tell me that if I saw the crown I'd better swing with all my might [Interlude] [Chorus] So go on kids, swing with all your might Love with all your heart and see with all your sight In this afternoon And yes, this universe away around our minds has brought us to the ground [Interlude] [Verse 1] Well I was born in the shipyards But I grew up on the plains The wind shook the trees making them speak to me So that I could remember their names My father he'd tell me to keep my head down And to never cause a sign Then he would tell me that if I saw the crown I'd better swing with all my might [Chorus] So go on kids, swing with all your might Love with all your heart and see with all your sight In this afternoon So go on kids, be with all your mind Live with all your heart and love with all your time In this afternoon And yes, this universe away around our minds has brought us to the ground [Outro]
@@bigjay8893 Ha damn, should have ranked in the first place. Wouldn't compare those songs, but Branson Andersons 'When I Roll" and Jason Dea Wests"Railroad Ghost" have some great picking. Jalan Crosslands latest, "Great Atomic Power", also has some lovely picking hand technique. But I'm sure I forgot some more
I screamed from the eargasm this man delivered me with the first line, also I'm a north Idaho native and this song kind of has the 307 calling my name tho
Woo-Hoo...307...where the snow drifts high or the wind blows it to the next county. Rob Weimann....Great song! I was dancing 'round the kitchen....waiting for spring!🤣
Easily one of my favorite uploads from this channel, really wish the audio quality was more consistent throughout. Regardless, would love to see more of him in the future
I wish I had more access to this song! Putting it on Spotify would be nice but I know that isn't the easiest for artists. Would be great for spreading his song and story though! Great voice regardless. Thanks @Western AF for the video
I both deeply love and love to hate this wonderful/terrifying/inspiring/infuriating/enigmatic place full of strange places and stranger folk, myself included. I like how you put it “no one lives here by accident”🤣 I don’t have to love it and I don’t have to leave it. Happy 307 Days Wyoming, you problematic unicorn.
blew my mind in high school. made guitar class inspirational.
never will forget you playing and singing pearl jam in class.
This song is giving me chills everytime.
Every Red head from USA to Ireland has a rhythm and gift of a story to tell.........Great story Rob!
Saw Rob and his band live in the Big Horn Mountains this weekend. Pure, Beautiful...Thank you
Thank you all very much for listening and for the wonderful comments, much love and more music on the way ❤thanks @westernasfuck I love you guys
Now I know what Nick Drake would have sounded like if he grew up pitching hay. Love this.
Nailed it.
i cant think of a single popular song that has and guitar this complex. can't even dream of being able to play like this.

[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Well I was born in the shipyards
But I grew up on the plains
The wind shook the trees making them speak to me
So that I could remember their names
My father he'd tell me to keep my head down
And to never cause a sign
Then he would tell me that if I saw the crown
I'd better swing with all my might
[Interlude]
[Chorus]
So go on kids, swing with all your might
Love with all your heart and see with all your sight
In this afternoon
And yes, this universe away around our minds has brought us to the ground

My first thought was “this guy has been in a metal band”
@@307jevans seems most these contemporary folk artists were either metalheads or punks in their teens
Who is top?

As a displaced Westerner this brings so much joy to my soul

He's not playing guitar, he's making love to her.
I can confirm that Rob makes love to all of his guitars.
Whew! What a great song!
Good stuff Robbie. Hope you're doing well dude.
I love the style he has! I’ve never heard anything like it on an acoustic
Damn his guitar skills are crazy
Awesome tune!
This is my favorite Scott Frost song

Hello from Shoshoni!
This Blind Man is pretty good.
Reminds me of chris Smithers. A lot of blue influences there
I love you!

First.
Great video and song.
Congratulations! Smh
Congratulations, good Sir!
@@that1guy899 thank you. In a year we can meet up for a beverage and celebrate the occasion.
You're the only one who cares if you're "first." Are you a first grader?
@@TheVeek192 that is such a typical response from someone who has failed kindergarten
Kanye West lives out that way
used to
Why would you bring Kanye up? Jesus.
Beautiful
Damn his guitar skills are crazy
