I wish we had YouTube back in the 60’s and 70’s when I sat in front of my record player and wore out albums learning this song. I learned this back in 1968. This is a great lesson!!!!

Another Paul Simon song along this same pattern and manipulation of chords is Kathy’s Song. Beautiful lyrics in both songs.

Magnificent. It will take me a while to get it all down but your lesson is perfect. Thank you for posting this.

Thanks Chris to do this Simon and Garfunkel song...such memories 👌🎶🎶🎶

[SACS-rmbo]

I’m slowly working through this one piece by piece, great tutorial! I’m playing it on a spruce top classical and it sounds just as good, but a little different. Thank you!

Одна из любимых песен когда-либо разучивыемых на гитаре и какой же гениальный ход между аккордами G и С ❤❤

[finnroou]

what are the notes for tuning up a half semi tone... can't figure it out. Love your instruction!

[assass]

What does "d with an 11 in" mean? Very new to guitar

[earlsammesios]

Hi Chris
, i've been waiting for this tutorial for ages! taught by you it's an icing on the cake, one of the best teachers online, keep up the good work

[nathaliedextor]

Might not be the smartest thing to learn this as my first song ever on the guitar, but this song has my heart so challenge accepted

[rzh]

Thanks so much. Hadn't heard this lovely song in decades. I see Garfunkel performed this on his rooftop during the pandemic. Have to listen to the recording and work on my timing.

[appa]

one of my favourite songs, thank you!! this was performed at my grandpas funeral as it was one of his favorites too

[ssa]

Great lesson. Lovely song. Glad you chose standard tuning. I like alternate tunings but not if it requires tuning strings up in tone, always afraid a string might snap.

[thebellbrothers]

On the last verse Paul plays something different on "the autumn winds blow chilly and cold". It's not the same as in the first two verses like you showed.

[charlgold]

Great tutorial as always. But I am really missing the "performance" you used to have at the beginning. As you have always advocated it is good to use as a check on timing, etc. Any chance of these being included in time going forward?

[mrozric]

Thank you for that. I've nearly learnt to play it in 2 hours! just waiting for my vocalist friend so we can coordinate the picky guitar and vocals for a future open mic.

[willherondale]

Amazing lesson, so happy to see you released if so recently as well, so there's hopefully lots more lessons of this quality to come :)

[Manuel-nlkd]

Excellent piece and congrats for the channel. I got this and Homeward bound's tabs, best ones I could find out there. As a request it would be extremely helpful for a better understanding to get the lyrics progression along the tab and a video of full playing the song. I just get lost after a few bars trying to sing the song 😑. Carry on with the pieces please 👏👏👏!!

Thank you so much Chris. I am seriously considering buying your lessons bundle. I wish I could access your lessons 40 years ago.
