Staind - Outside Guitar Lesson

Sign up for my GL365 Academy to finally understand the guitar, develop a great ear for music, pro level technique and much more! Personalized support from me!

In this Outside guitar lesson video, I will show you how to play all of the chords to this hit song by Staind on acoustic guitar.

The tuning is Eb standard tuning. That is, starting from the 6th string, Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb. Or if your tuner displays sharps for the chromatic notes instead of flats, those notes will be D# G# C# F# A# D#.

The version I referenced to create this guitar lesson video for "Outside" is their 'Unplugged' performance. What I will be covering in the lesson is chords that Aaron Lewis is playing. I won't be covering the 2nd guitar part that plays that really cool melody. The reason I am not covering that second guitar part is because it requires a very unorthodox heavily detuned (perhaps a baritone?) guitar. At least to perform it like they do.

So we will be covering just the two chord progressions that make up the entire song. The intro/verse progression and the chorus.

I hope you guys enjoy learning this easy acoustic hit from Staind! Carl....

It's amazing how power chords can sound so lush when you let other strings ring along with them, thanks for the lesson Carl! Join the Academy and get the best teacher out there along with great courses and support!!

The best thing about YouTube is waking up on weekends to find new lessons from Carl. 🎶

[joshuajohnson]

Thanks man. I’ve seen 5 I’ve your videos and, all were great. I used to play 20 years ago and I quit. I bought a couple guitars a month ago and I learned I’ve forgotten almost all the songs I used to play easily. Thanks for helping me remember!

[christophernealey]

I was just playing "so far away" and was thinking I should learn other Staind songs and here you are.

[scottthebritt]

Staind is one of my favorite bands atm and has inspired me so much in improving as a musician. Would love to see see tackle more of their songs and maybe some of aaron lewis’ solo stuff! 🎸🤘

[Mr.Nabil.Belhaj]

this song brings back painful memories from my teen years; i used to play this song on loop and get lost in my tears in my room; seems like yesterday.

[isaah.g]

[darrenlambert]

[lukemccullough]

Great tune Carl, can you do soothsayer by buckethead? Please!

[FrozeMoments]

Watched Limp Bizkit, Stainded and System of a Down with Method Man and Redman in 99. Freak of show. I’ve been playing in C #. Very cool.

[TheKiidBizzy]

[tonymcnamara]

Haven't heard this for a long time now.
Why don't I listen to Stained more often, I always seem to overlook this band.

[MrDarkness]

I was wondering if you could teach us AC/DC The Jack also this was amazing thanks for doing this song

[amstel]
