Hi Lauren! I'm a member and am enjoying myself completely! One suggestion. I may be alone on this but when you're teaching these beginner songs and their related strumming patterns, I would find it helpful if, before you begin singing, you would demonstrate the strumming pattern a time or two without the vocals. Once you begin singing I find it difficult to "listen through you" to pick up the strumming pattern. Maybe it's a "me problem" but I'd find that change very helpful. Thanks for listening!

I saw John Denver in concert in Roanoke, VA, in the 80s. He was a talented artist and song writer. I like your rendition of this song. Thanks for another great lesson!

Im 41 and started learning last year, really like how you break this down and make it simple to learn! Thanks

Lauren, I’m a 62 year young man who has played the drums and percussion instruments since the age of 16. I decided to pick up the guitar and try my hand at it. I have found that I am absolutely terrible at it! I have short stubby fingers and really have no clue how to play this awesome instrument! I’m hoping you will be able to help me break through and master this thing. we go! 😎

I listened to this twice and I like your voice, you said you had a cold well can't wait till you cold goes away.really loved it Lauren.really loved the fact that John was born again came into christ changed his life had a key to every door.born again Christian.i which he tells the story just beautiful.

Ah this is such a beautiful song ..takes me back to my trip across the states in 1980, when I stopped in Denver Colorado and took a spin up into the Rockies.
So I m definitely off to learn this classic song ASAP.
Im not sure I will be able to hit high notes with capo 2nd, so maybe I should just do it with out the capo.
Don't suppose you have a copy of the lyrics and chords handy?
Ps when you coming over to visit our Rockies in the world famous Connemara national park, just an hours drive from my house here on Galway.

You’re such a badass I love these videos you make it so easy ❤

[MikeVinsel]

do you know if there is a way to play the intro to this song without the 'drop d' tuning?

[FreddytheDoberman]

Great lesson, but your 'older people' comment referring to people 50 and older was like a kick to the face. I'm 58.
