I really like the way you present the lesson, with clear shots of the chords you are playing and the nice graphics. Shooting in black and white/sepia is a nice touch. Thank you!

Sunny Yesterday my life was filled with rain
Sunny You smiled at me and really eased the pain
Now the dark days are gone, and the bright days are here
My sunny one shines so sincere Sunny one so true, I love you

Sunny Thank you for the sunshine bouquet
Sunny Thank you for the love you brought my way
You gave to me your all and all And now I feel ten feet tall
Sunny one so true, I love you

Sunny Thank you for the truth you let me see
Sunny Thank you for the facts from A to Z
My life was torn like wind-blown sand
And a rock was formed when you held my hand (oh, sunny)
Sunny one so true, I love you.

Sunny Thank you for the smile upon your face
Hmm, sunny Thank you, thank you for the gleam that shows its grace
You're my spark of nature's fire You're my sweet complete desire
Sunny one so true, yes, I love you

Sunny Yesterday, all my life was filled with rain
Sunny You smiled at me and really-really eased the pain
Now the dark days are gone, and the bright days are here (oh, sunny)
My sunny one shines so sincere Sunny one so true, I love you
I love you (sunny) I love you (sunny)
Signin' I love you (sunny) Yes, I love you (sunny)

Bonsoir! J’ai vu cette vidéo il y a quelques jours et ce morceau semblait très difficile à jouer. Finalement c’est l’arrangement qui tout simplement génial et la chanson est en effet faisable. Merci beaucoup pour ce tutoriel !

[VonnStrummer]

Thanks for an awesome lesson of a lovely timeless song!

[minime]

As always pure joy to hear you play mate. Love the “ding” at the start of every video 😅 cracks me up every time.

[directorbob]

that was tasty guitar playing and very helpful🙏

In the third line of chords : Bb7 instead of Bm7 (in your chords progression at 1m04)

[azzuro]

Very simple, very elegant very nice. I enjoyed listening to you a lot. SUNNY has a zillion versions with chords ranging from 4 chord amateur playing (Am-Gm-F-E) to pro jazz comping with Bb7/13 etc.. I tend to play it more jazzy but your version is also very satisfying-love the melodic playing and nylon strings.

One important comment tho: Being a wannabe fingerstyle player too, I also wrap thumb wherever I can even on 5th string sometimes like Bresh Atkins and company.. BUT that is wrong In case of that Amin7 and than Gmin7. Jazz players would cut you the thumb :) Correct way is to finger bass with middle and barre triad with index finger.Try, and your effort will be rewarded (example Am7 and than D9, very common cadence with minimal effort).
Keep up the good work buddy and stay safe.

That was awesome, man! Music is placed in the center where it belongs, not the person who plays it.

[paulstan]

Nice arrangement, very pretty! Would be helpful if the chord voicing diagram was displayed for more than one beat.

Thanks!

Hello, beautifull sound! What guitar do you use in this video ? Mark and model?

[estebanhurtado]

Exvelent bro.... What guitar brand is it ?? Tell me please

[SHTIHMAS]

I really liked it.But it's a pity that the tablature is not complete (there are no transitions-fillings).I was stuck for 2 min. 38 sec.

[christopherrq]

I get the chords, but what's the string playing order? I'm confused :(

[oldbladderhorn]

that guitar is very boomy and loud and (a little fried out )
with the wrong depth and type of reverb thrown in
left my ears ringing had to take off my phones to save my ears


you don't show the key change step up's and turnarounds either. a great pity
also would have made the lesson less mind numbing if you had attempted
to cover mr Hebb's intro or some of his inversions as an aside to the main lesson
or some ideas on his improvisations would really have helped.
save me having to stopin an starting willy nilly on that 1972 tv show
the one with Ron Carter on bass

don't mean to be a critic just checking out some of the lessons
here on the youtube and had a little listen
no ones really trying to get close it seems their all
very weak and stroppy so far
i guess it's bit to much for a video tutorial
as there's a hell of a lot going on in the song
and Bobby is a damn genius after all
i wonder if there's a transcript somewhere
on Bobby's guitar from that show
