I recently discovered the National, I saw them in support of their last two albums . Sadly they did not play this song either time .
Great job of explaining ! you even covered the second guitar laying behind the beat . Thank you so much .

Thanks so much! Really great to hear how you talk about the notes themselves, pointing out what bits make the song so strong. Nice one.

Love it! I can finally play and sing a song at the same time.

[snailhoose]

Great explanation; I'll be coming back to your channel! Thank you!

Thanks for the guide, I wholeheartedly agree with your sentiments on this song. Such a thoughtful arrangement, deceptively simple.

I'm just learning the guitar from scratch. But it motivates me alot to have my favourite songs explained in such a great way! Thank you :)

[niagarara]

Really really great tutorial. Easy to follow and informative. Thank you.

[Eurobailey]

It’s funny, every other lesson I have seen of this made it a lot more complicated and added a lot of extra notes! I never thought they sounded quite right! I had Kinda worked it out myself but this lesson had made it a lot clearer! Now I have to retrain my brain to re-learn it :)

[anthonysmith-yqvt]

love this song thanks for the info ps didn't you do slim slow slider can't find it

[allthatjjess]

hi, this is amazing! love how you kept it simple, it's a really beautiful arrangement. could you write down the chords you used, please? i'm not from usa and english is not my first language, so i can't understand too much from the audio. thank you so much in advance! :)

[achint.]

Great video man. Could you suggest me a guitar?

[nohandsnoproblem]

Nice job, man!
Would you consider making a tutorial for 'This is the Last Time'. I cannot find anything decent online

[susenwis]

Great lesson. I alwyas used to play the two top string of the chords, but it sounds a lot better when you use the D-string .

[rjharis]

Can we have tabs for this? Cannot quite follow how you're shifting from chords to individual strings
