How to play 'I Can't Tell You Why' by The Eagles

A gorgeous ballad by an amazing band - let's build our chord vocabulary with a couple of new ma7 shapes that you're sure to come across in other situations. We'll break this one down slowly together - left hand and right hand patterns - and a full playalong toward the end. Also a bit of lead stuff at the very end as well. Fun!
And.....we'll be playing along with the fabulous BEATBUDDY drum machine pedal and we'll be using the amazing AEROS Loop Studio GOLD EDITION pedal from Singular Sound. Play along with me!

Hi Shane, thk for being you!
In this crazy topsy turvy world we are in lately, you have restored my faith in the human race again, it is people like you that put a huge smile in my face every time you put out a new vid. You are a genuine Canadian Gem. Sorry I got off topic abit there😊

[keithwolk]

Outstanding instruction. Not all of us are accomplished as some so your lessons are perfect to understand and we need the slow version to grasp it. Thank you for being online.

[waynetozer]

OMG! Still picking my jaw up from the floor. This sounds incredible. Hands down the best tutorial of this song I have ever seen. Phenomenal work Shane. Your tutorial and play-along format is outstanding. This is like sitting in a room with your best friend and having fun learning a song. Thank You.

[ligonlaw]

Love it. It's is not one of the Eagles songs I immediately think about, but have always loved it. The high pitch of the lead vocal has probably discouraged me from trying this out. Thank you. The jazz groove is wonderful.

[rodger]

Shane you never disappoint any of us. This is one of my all time favorite songs. I grew up listening to the Eagles. Thank you, thank you, thank you…

You are the best teacher I have ever encountered....wish I had you available 35 years ago. Instant subscribe.

I'm 35 yo, so this song came up 10 years before I was born. But man, what a song! Eagles is one of my fav bands. Great tutorial and arrangement! Greetings from Brazil! Subscribed!

[randallsmith]

Possibly one of the most beautiful songs ever written. I have been working on the guitar solo (as a beginner - pretty challenging) and now I want to put the rest of the song together. And I am interested in learning how to loop and a Beat Buddy. Thanks so much for this tutorial.

What a prolific time of great guitar music😎👍
😎✌👍❤🖖

[TheRrsierra]

half a minute watching and I just give my "Like", this is a loglife master song, as a teenager use to heard and now older Is the same feeling, Thanks for sharing, and I will try to play it. Best regards and blassings!👌👏🙏

[Raymond-rriv]

The way you do this song was so attracted to me I just have to learn it!! In fact, it's more attractive to me now than when the Eagles did it. The way you play it sounds fantastic with only one guitar ... with no other instruments or voices accompanying you... but I found myself singing along❤🧠😎👍🇺🇸!!!

[dukeofearl]

Wow!!!! This is great!!! Love those jazz chords.

[frankaq]

Awesome, Thanks for another great lesson, Shane! Great tune. My wife's favourite Eagles song.

[bruceewing]

Amazing how you just talk the lyrics with the chord changes on specific words.
Great teacher!

[markcorliss]

Hey Mr. I had this album myself and this song is my fav Eagles tune. Nobody requested it because nobody can tackle it. Good Job man thanx. It's been a huge help. Keep em coming.

[frankmelendez]

[Cisco]

I have to say that you are an awesome player and teacher. I love your enthusiasm. Keep 'em coming. Thank you, Shane!

[davidradley]
