Exactly what I was looking for. So happy there was no intro talking and no explanation only a perfectly played tune with tabs and chords. Brilliant. I am subscribing. Thank you.

That's a good way to teach this song.
People get so bogged down with chord progressions and TAB that they lose sight of the primary element: The Melody.

may I ask what type of AMP are you using to create that warm sound? and What is your Knobs setting on your hollow guitar? it sounds so beautiful

[chezk]

All this really needs is like a 5 second moment before starting, but otherwise its great! 😁

[soulstalgiarecords]

Greatness Sir!!! By the way, what guitar are you using... The Tone is divine.

[andellryan]

When playing the chords, do u pluck? It doesn't seem like your strumming them🤔im a beginner guitar player so all of this is new to me lol

[TractorMonkeywithJL]

What are the dashes in the chord? I'm not familiar with that notation. Is an A-7 just an A7? Or is it something else like a minor? As in Am7?

[ahkio]

It almost sounds like 'A Lovely Night' a soundtrack from the movie La La Land haha

I’m a little new to this sort of guitar playing and this song as a whole. Can anyone tell me which part of autumn leaves is the “chorus”. Please tell me which bar it starts and where it ends.
