I've tried to learn so many songs now with not a lot of success. but this just clicked for me somehow! it's easy and not hard to ramp up once your comfortable with it and I can tell I'll have a lot of fun with this song. Thanks!
For all of you guys who struggle with lyrics I want to share something: I've learned a lot of songs and poems and frankly, for me, so far, it is one of hardest songs to memorize. But it is totally doable. I took up a challenge and it took me about 5 days to memorize all names of the cities. And it is quite universal method for literally any song for me. 1. Start from easiest parts like intro and refrain to feel the song. 2. Read lyrics in the begining a lot. Make it easily accessible: print it, make a screenshot and put it on your phone wallpaper or whatever that helps you to reach it when needed. 3. Let the song you learn get stuck in your head like some unwanted radio hits 😂. 4. Use the learning curve method to "unforgeting" and refreshing your memory in time. 5. Use visualization to create some anchor points in text e.g. Springfield- i see Homer Simpson, Cadillac-i see a car etc. It can be even a nonsense, doesn't matter for your brain. 6. Learn it with small portions, for example: master one verse before moving on. 7. Try to sing it from the begining til the end but also try to pick some random verses to sing. 8. Give yourself a time and patience. Forgeting lyrics especially in the begining is a part of learning process. 9. Try to learn other songs also, the more you memorize in time, the easier it goes. Your brain literally learn... How to learn. 10. Sleeping helps a lot. One day you think you can barely remember a single verse, the other day you magically remind yourself everything. 11! Don't frustrate and don' t give up. You're gonna make it, believe me. (Sorry for my english. Not my first language 😉)
There is no cure for that but to keep playing. It will be painful at first, but eventually your fingers will develop calluses and it won't hurt at all. Just make sure you keep playing regularly. If you only play 20 minutes, once a week, your fingers won't toughen.

It means, move the B7 shape (x21202) and move that shape up the fretboard 1 fret - but only play the bassiest 2-3 strings (x323xx). Then, slide it back down to a B7. Hope that helps! It was difficult to approach how to write this out in the lesson - hence the parenthesis. Good luck!
Thank you ur teaching methods are extremely thorough and amazing
Thanks Jay!

You should do the original by Geoff Mack, using the original Australian lyrics.
Great video for the teaching! I finally understand how to do this song!
But do you have any videos on help with fingers hurting while playing guitar?

Practice has chords 10 15 minutes A-day and I'll bet in about a month you'll have callouses and no pain
nice !!! will try it in a few months :) . Can please make a lesson for Sam Hall , Johnny Cash version ?
lesson well done..i wish you would play the song at the end of the lesson
Written and originally performed by a true Nova Scotian... Hank Snow!
No, it was originally Australian. Geoff Mack.
@@ErrolChugg Noted.

Great and gelpful lessons!
Could you do Redemptionday by Jonny Cash. That would be really fun!!!!
12 bar blues arrangement
Three chords
Great lesson. One question, I noticed that on the fifth line of the first verse there is a C7 and a B7 in parenthesis, what does that mean?
It means, move the B7 shape (x21202) and move that shape up the fretboard 1 fret - but only play the bassiest 2-3 strings (x323xx). Then, slide it back down to a B7. Hope that helps! It was difficult to approach how to write this out in the lesson - hence the parenthesis. Good luck!
Anyone know the beats of this song for a metronome to help keep the chord progression
Great song, but for me to memorize those lyrics ; forget it. LoL Great lesson though.
Ha, agree! I was most definitely reading off a sheet when I recorded. 🙈
