I am going to sing this at my son's wedding. Thank you so much.

You know it’s a good song when Marty plays it for over a minute at the beginning

I promised dad I would learn this song for him and now that hes not here that just gives me more determination to finish learning it

[hutchklutch]

This song brings a tear to my eyes every time. My dad played this for me when I was a boy and through the years I listen to this song and reflect on my life. Great lesson!

This was one of my grandpas favorite songs I’ve been wanting to learn since I was young. He always played guitar but passed away before he could teach me I got a guitar a few months ago and I want to learn this song for him. I always wanted him to teach it to me but now I’m learning it for him

No joke, the first probably 35 times (I have a 6 year old son) I saw Guardians of the Galaxy vol 2, the funeral scene made me cry like a baby with this song.

Marty you psychic I was listening to this song yesterday and looked up the tab this morning and then you post this wow!

[RCSmiths]

A beautiful and simple song to play, what more could you ask for!

I've always loved this song, but imagine if Marty was your Father, all those free guitar lessons, I bet he'd let you borrow some of his cool shirts as well. ! Jammin in Paradise.

So long Thursday. I will playing this and trying not to tear up.

[xtrobitzmusic]

A hard song to play not because of the chords but when you are an old man and a Dad. It swells with emotion and the unspoken. Something to think about during Covid lockdowns while learning to play with the one and only - Marty.

Marty, I found your channel a couple of years ago, and I'm not the best guitar player, but whenever I need a lesson, you always have a video curated perfectly to my needs. My grandpa is currently in hospice care which drove me into trying to learn this beautiful song. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Thank you so much for this tutorial, it taught me from not knowing anything to a whole song. I got recommended your channel via a friend because I told them I wanted to learn this song for my dad. He's sacrificed so much for me, and I wanted to return the favor with his favourite song. ☺️

My Father Loves This Song, He always makes me listen to it, Im Gonna learn it to show him how much he means for me, wish me good luck

[caseylee]

Wow, man! I've been singing this song to my son since he was born (he's 24 now, and I still do it). Hearing the intro to your video almost made me cry! Thanks a ton!

[muminsimab]

[johnwashburn]

I was 16 when I first heard this song. Now I am on the other side at 65. I still love it and will have it down again by morning.
Much gratitude.
