2 1/2 years of practicing beginner here. For me, I avoid any songs using the true F chord. I guess it's time I learned it! Love this song. Nice lesson. Thanks
Thanks! And thanks for watching!
You might want to check out this lesson on that F chord :) ruclips.net/video/2zXXTWtkzOw/видео.html
You may need a set up on your guitar. I’ve been trying to play an F chord for a year. Received my guitar back from the shop today and waaalaaa I can play the F! 😊
@@kd5773 .. thanks. I've been using a cheap classic guitar since starting and the strings do sit kinda high. Maybe I'll treat myself to a better quality instrument.
@@kd5773 That's great and a good tip!
That’s looks pretty fun. Thanks
It is! Thanks for looking around!
Gracias profe muchas gracias

That’s ok if your not 40! Lol. You are welcome!
Awesome! I can do that.
Happy to help!
Absolutely great. Am is not my range for this song so I do it in Em. Can you do a Em lesson
Great 🎉🎉🎉
Thanks 🤗
I recently bought that same album. 👍.. And I have an awesome 8 track tape that is even better. so many great hits on the 8 track; I did have to refurbish the 8 track, but it was so worth my time.. now if I could only learn to play my guitar......... thanks for the videos.
Very cool! And you are most welcome. Thank you for watching!
When they make a major motion picture about this channel, Seth Rogen should play you! Great vid. Thanks for posting. Keep ‘em coming.
Best comment ever! Will do!
Nice
Good job
Thank you!
Verse 2 line 1 “in restless dreams I walked alone
When you sing with the song it really helps. I would have liked for you to play the entire song at the beginning or at the end of the lesson without stopping so we can hear it all put together and
see the transitions. Thank you
Thanks for suggestion!
Ma se non la sa fare manco lui!!! 😅😅😅
Buenas noches no mucho ingles pero buena explicación desde Venezuela lo sigo gracias excelente
Thanks for following!
since you did the "Sound of Silence" I would like to try "The Boxer" You made me believe that I really COULD PLAY GUITAR.
Great!! It’s on the list :)
😍
Your voice should be good for some Johnny Cash songs I think.
Thanks!
I'm only 31, father of three and already preparing to be guitar grandpa.
Great!
It is very good lessons, but I do miss the Wiseman dogs where are they?
Maggie Mae shows up in the videos starting about 2 years ago
👍🙏
Feeding the Al Gore Rhythm!😘
My biggest issue with this song is the capo on 6th, because it makes it difficult for me to do the barre F. My fingers are too squeezed together. So I upped the key in both my voice and the guitar :)
Perfect! Moving a capo to better match your voice is why I use one a lot. And i say - if it sounds good - it is good!
Respect for you sir ❤ I have some kind of emotional connection with this S o' S, we feel happy & gloomy feeling at the same time.. Kindly also teach Bryan Hay's Sealed with a Kiss.. New Subscriber 🙂✅💜
I will add this to the list! Thanks for the sun!
how about MICHELLE by the Beatles ?
Notes :)
Nice. Why do you suggest using just the thumb and the index finger for the beginner level though?
Thanks so much for watching! I suggest that to get started toward using all the fingers and to be able to move from finger picking to strumming without a pick
Great lesson! This song is so beautiful I will give it a whirl. Can you do a lesson on the song "Third Rate Romance" by the Amazing Rhythm Aces? with help on the weird strumming pattern?
Either way, I really enjoyed this lesson!
u4ea
Thanks. And I noted your request.
@@Relaxandlearnguitar Thank you Kevin!
;-)
What model Martin is that you're playing? Sound really balanced,
Thanks! It’s a 1999 D 1-R. It’s definitely my favorite guitar.
Can you use an Fmajor 7 instead of F barre chord to transition to C faster?
sure could
I'm here again sir watching your vedios i hope 1 day i can play guitar too 😀
Welcome and thanks for the support! Stick with it. You can learn.
Lean & understand a three chord 1-4-5 chord progression, it’s easy. Most songs are written this way. Lean it in the key of A. Three easy chords, A,D & E. You can play hundreds of songs with these chords. Lots of info on RUclips. It’s a good start. Then learn the G chord. Now you can play in the key of D too, D - G - A, ( you’ll already know the D & A chords). Hope this helps. You can do it!
@@DonnSeib great advice!
💘💘💘🎸🎸🎸
Thanks !
Correction: The Sounds of Silence.
Do I need sounds on for this one ?
Lol
Can I play fmaj7,don't know Barr chords?
You can. Won’t sound exactly the same though
You should do voice work!!!!!!
I get that alot :)
It looks so easy, but it is not. Thanks for the lesson.
You are most welcome. This is the easier version of the original song and a good place to start. Thank you for watching!
Can you use the fake F?
Yes that could work.
Love this, so good!
But very ftustrating for me as I dont understand half of it.. Watched it several times but still can't follow whats happening with the second picking pattern after the intro one...
Do you mean the strum pattern after the intro? Srarting on "Friend" and that G chord you strum a DU pattern. Strum down with your thumb and up with your index finger.
@@Relaxandlearnguitar thanks for replying. I meant the second picking section which was done on the lower notes than the intro.
Couldn't tell if it was the same pattern or not....
I'm pretty new and totally useless at this, it's completely foreign to me 🤷🏼♂️😁
@@actiondefence Got ya. That one is more involved with an alternating thumb pattern that changes based on the chord. You could try slowing down the video to get it, I see you also signed up for my email list and the 3 song bundle which is a great place to start as a beginner :). Thanks for the support! and stick with it.
@@Relaxandlearnguitar right now I'm tempted to go rock and roll and smash the place to with the guitar... 🤣🤣🤣
Very frustrating! 🤣
@@actiondefence well, that would solve the problem of being frustrated, but then no guitar.... Try starting with those songs in the song lesson bundle and come back to simon and garfunkel later.
Can it be done without a capo?i hate the capo.
Sure. You will have to transpose the key though.
Tt
I'm under 40, can I still subscribe?
Absolutely. Would love to have you
So this F chord…..🎉 isn’t that one of the hardest to learn? I need to use the cheat version
It does take sone time. But you can play it with 4 fingers instead of a barre chord if you need to.
silence is a sound you can never hear !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Your capo is up side down.
Video isn’t showing you okay. I can hear you can’t see you
