Thank you so much for such wonderful lessons. I live in Russia, but I have loved country music since childhood. And now, at the age of 42, I'm finally playing Country Roads! You are great at explaining and teaching with heart! I wish you all the best, God bless you!
Favorite part: Chord sing-along. It never fails to make my laugh but I love it! I'm always impressed with your sophisticated teaching style. Many people can play, but few can play AND teach. Thanks so much for posting this video! Bought a package of your learning materials - book, DVD, etc - and they were fantastic!
Visit ur channel after 5 years... How u doin' justin ? I Used to learn from ur channel n now I'm the lead guitarist of my band n all credit goes to u.. U've been a guide through my whole musical journey.. Thanks a lot 🙏🙏
Thank you Justin! The way you start by demonstrating the simplest version and then later on showing a more advanced version is such a great way to learn
John Denver was one of my favorite guitarist and music performers of the time. Still play his music to this day, and I remember exactly where I was and what I was doing the day it was announced over the radio that his plane had gone down and he had died. Would love to see you cover more of John Denver's songs. Cool video, thanks. Cheers,
This song came out when I was 3 yrs old and by the time I was 5, it was my favorite. I used to sing it with my mom and had close family friends with teenagers who played this on guitar. It actually led me to get my first guitar. It will always have a special place in my heart.
Ooh, this is very exciting! I’ve only been playin for 5 months, so most of the songs I’ve learned have been from RUclips tutorials. Country Roads is one of the few I’ve taught myself by ear, and I’ve been playing it for about 6 weeks now. After playing it myself for a while, I’m interested to see how you recommend I improve my technique in his video!
This is absolutely PERFECT for me because I play piano, but I'm trying to branch out. So I've taken up singing lessons, and I'm learning guitar from you! But for singing I'm learning this song! So I could learn this, and sing along!
Ok, Justin hits it out-of-the-park again. Great song and way to play it. Nice way to spice up strumming with base note-strumming plus hammer-on picking.
Glad you enjoyed it. There are now 700+ song lessons plus a song request board here: www.justinguitar.com/songs Cheers 😊 | Richard_close2u | JustinGuitar Official Guide & Approved Teacher www.justinguitar.com/donate
We can't be thankful enough for what you are doing here and teaching us how to play songs on guitar. I just started learning from you and Marty Schwartz! You guys are awsome!
Justin- very nice and great tribute to John Denver. Was fortunate to see him live three times. He is sorely missed. Great video- cheers from Austin Tx- live music capital of the world.
Very nice… my wife and I got to see John Denver perform 3 times in the 80s - once at Red Rocks and at park in Denver Colorado…got to say hello at the park concert as leaving… to his staff he was most worried that someone had grabbed his guitar for ride home! Thanks for the great lesson.
I've already learned this and play it with old faithful, but the little extras at the end of the lesson is what I needed to take it to the next level. Thank you for another fantastic lesson Justin. If you can't feel it you'll never play it good. Thank you for all you do for us. Take care of yourself and your family Justin. From Charlie in the States.
I Am a shower singer and I never was able to learn more Than the typicall chords (in Spain we call them something like the "Scout boys songs chords") , but... I Love it. Thanks for Your lessons, they make me very happy. Kisses from Barcelona.
Loving this, thank you, Justin! The hammer technique on verses and then mixing it up during chorus and bridge with old faithful makes it really fun. Beautiful song!
Oooh, I really need to revisit this. This was my 1st F chord song in 2019 :) I've been doing some Bluegrass studies and I love this song. Great lesson as usual!
I like your lessons Justin. Can you also make a finger picking lesson of this song cause I haven't found a proper lessons on RUclips. Much appreciated 👍👍👍
i love it man! the guitar part is easy for me, but im just now trying to learn to sing and play at the same time, and this seems like a good song to start. It's great to be able to start out really simply and slowly make the guitar part harder. Keep rockin Justin!
Hi Jason, I watch your lessons when I've learned a song because although I'm a very experienced player there just might be some little additional trick you do which I could steal. :) So thanks for the hammer on bit which I will incorporate. Regarding strumming patterns - this is something I've never actually analyzed. As a self taught player I think differently. I don't consciously go ''down up, down down, '' etc My approach is singing in my head such as '' jing jingajing jing ''which translates to ''down - down up down''. I'm not criticizing your practical terms just noting the kind of habits self taught players can get into. This example is neither negative or positive but there are many negatives and over the years I've had to consciously erase such things. However I have never managed to stop playing an open A chord with only 2 fingers instead of 3. Such programmes as yours are a boon to players. In the past I spent hours working out every lick and chord from records because sheet music just didn't tell you the full arrangement. I hope all the young players appreciate just how handy this is as I'm 79.
Is it just me... or is anybody else getting Stewie from family guy vibes when he is singing out the chords?? 😆 but good lesson tho. Thank you for taking the time to break it down. First time I actually bothered learning to play this song. I never knew it was this easy. I really enjoyed learning it.
@@markbowerman7554 I honestly didnt think it would be that helpful trying to learn a song but it is a funny way of realizing it and relating it to learning.
If you are a beginner like me and haven't yet learned the F chord, you can try replacing the only F chord in the bridge with an Aminor. Sounds almost similar to me.
Thank you Justin, even though it is extremely American oriented I like this song. Almost every song that ever wanted to learn included the 'F' chord, an incentive to learn it! I was once accused of looking like John Denver (nerdy, shoulder length hair and glasses) by a guy who was trying to form an ad-hoc band. As a fellow aviator I was particularly saddened by his death aged 53 in a careless, totally avoidable, possibly survivable ditching. BTW, Whilst your guitar and singing is nicely reproduced, for some time now your speech semms 'clipped', like you are a long way from the microphone.

Love this! Just learned this song off of tabs but watching this lesson just makes it that much better
Tech has me stumped
Thank you so much for such wonderful lessons. I live in Russia, but I have loved country music since childhood. And now, at the age of 42, I'm finally playing Country Roads!
You are great at explaining and teaching with heart!
I wish you all the best, God bless you!
Country G take me D.
That is my favourite part.
Great lesson btw - as usual :) Thanks Justin!
The Alternating Bass really makes this song mesmerising, I could sit and play this one for hours - it's like therapy.
Favorite part: Chord sing-along. It never fails to make my laugh but I love it! I'm always impressed with your sophisticated teaching style. Many people can play, but few can play AND teach. Thanks so much for posting this video!
Bought a package of your learning materials - book, DVD, etc - and they were fantastic!
Yes, the chord singing is something incredible! How cleverly it helps to memorise everything in the lesson.
My favorite part of Justin's awesome tutorials is when he uses the chords for lyrics. It's very practical, yet it always draws a laugh out of me.
Life is G there ... Em than the Em
Hit C like a G, baby. 😂 Love it. If he doesn’t have a video, I don’t learn the song on RUclips.
Visit ur channel after 5 years... How u doin' justin ? I Used to learn from ur channel n now I'm the lead guitarist of my band n all credit goes to u.. U've been a guide through my whole musical journey.. Thanks a lot 🙏🙏
I just realised I love this man twice, I can play songs I gave up years ago and he looks like the late and very great Norm Macdonald.
Thank you Justin! The way you start by demonstrating the simplest version and then later on showing a more advanced version is such a great way to learn
Mad respect for keeping it up all these years.
What an astounding teacher you are, Justin. You make this stuff so very approachable.
I've been watching you for something like 17 years now. Time flies. You're great Justin, an amazing guitar player and a good human.

Justin is the best. I’ve learned a lot over the yrs

Thanks for being a total legend, Justin! I've just popped this one into my repertoire. X
Always nice to see a new lesson, especially when it’s a John Denver song! ‘This Old Guitar’ would be a nice song to have a lesson on next ;)
Great song Justin, i play with my fingers but i guess i really should practice with a pick...thankyou for the lesson.
Ive been listening to this song just for a few days and all of a sudden i see this video like a blessing ❤️

For the last “yesterday” in the bridge I think it sounds great to play a Dsus4.
Awesome as always, Justin. Your singing has really come on loads, as well!
You are the best 👍
Very nice!
Thanks for the visit :)
I bet Justin can make a kick-ass video lesson on Hard Luck Woman by Kiss arranged for one acoustic guitar 😉
I like your lessons Justin. Can you also make a finger picking lesson of this song cause I haven't found a proper lessons on RUclips. Much appreciated 👍👍👍
Well done mate respect from the 🇺🇸
❤fantastic master
I’ve been subscribed since you were recording videos sitting in the floor. Your voice has gotten so good!!!
I love it
Thanks 🙏
i love it man! the guitar part is easy for me, but im just now trying to learn to sing and play at the same time, and this seems like a good song to start. It's great to be able to start out really simply and slowly make the guitar part harder. Keep rockin Justin!
Hi Jason, I watch your lessons when I've learned a song because although I'm a very experienced player there just might be some little additional trick you do which I could steal. :) So thanks for the hammer on bit which I will incorporate.

@@redrubyelvis My abject apologies.
I think it's fine, it's easy, I'll do it, regards
very cool video, thanks alot :D
Dang Justin! Have you been talking vocal lessons? Sounds great man!
fantastic
Is that A Major? I play it picking strings with these chords. A, F, em, D,
❤ fantastic
Is it just me... or is anybody else getting Stewie from family guy vibes when he is singing out the chords?? 😆 but good lesson tho. Thank you for taking the time to break it down. First time I actually bothered learning to play this song. I never knew it was this easy. I really enjoyed learning it.
Ah totally get the stewie thing when singing chords!
@@markbowerman7554 I honestly didnt think it would be that helpful trying to learn a song but it is a funny way of realizing it and relating it to learning.
Please make a video on Hank Williams Jr. Family Tradition!!!
The dandruff on your jumper makes it look as if it has pilling😮
JKs
Awesome video as always!
If you are a beginner like me and haven't yet learned the F chord, you can try replacing the only F chord in the bridge with an Aminor. Sounds almost similar to me.
Try playing an F major 7 or an F over C - these are great work arounds. ✌🏽
GGX GANG GANG
Wish the app included links to the relevant RUclips videos.
Thank you Justin, even though it is extremely American oriented I like this song. Almost every song that ever wanted to learn included the 'F' chord, an incentive to learn it!
I was once accused of looking like John Denver (nerdy, shoulder length hair and glasses) by a guy who was trying to form an ad-hoc band. As a fellow aviator I was particularly saddened by his death aged 53 in a careless, totally avoidable, possibly survivable ditching.
BTW, Whilst your guitar and singing is nicely reproduced, for some time now your speech semms 'clipped', like you are a long way from the microphone.
