David Gray - Sail Away - Guitar lesson by Joe Murphy

Learn how to play ‘sail away’ from the album White Ladder by David Gray. This is a personal favourite and to my mind well worth learning.. nice use of open string chords, and lots of scope for making it your own, try experimenting with your own right hand ideas, this is a good way to put your own mark on the song.

Great singer well done mate , you remind me of Richard Ashcroft

[@alanhowell3646]

E9 at 4.50 is actually just A major with top E open

[@lukecutting7801]

Is the capo not meant to go on the first?

[@chadwickgaines3600]

Sir. You and I are going to play rewind and play for about 2 to 3 weeks.

Standard tuning

Nice work but I think the E9 is actually a E6sus4
