*A few notes about the four chords:

1) Although all these songs use the four chords at one point or another, they may not be the four chords throughout the whole song.

2) The actual songs are all normally in different keys - I transposed them all to G, D, Em, and C for the purpose of this video.

3) The songs in this video do not all use the four chords in the same order:
-"The Call" through "Neopolitan Dreams" are G, D, Em, C
-"The Scientist" through "Maybe" are Em, C, G, D
-"As Long As You Love Me" is C, G, Em, D
-"Round Here" is C, D, Em, G
-"Monster Mash" through "Beautiful Girls" are G, Em, C, D
-"Drunk" is Em, D, G, C
-"We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" is C, G, D, Em
-"I Knew You Were Trouble" is G, D, Em, C (verses) and Em, C, D, G (chorus)

I use your videos to find new songs I like xD

[AaronVloggg]

So this was one of my favourite videos, it's just how the accents change, and just how it's made it fun and everything :')

[RipTard]

I'll put the strumming patterns next to the song names in the description. Thanks for the comment!

[KoiKatt]

Dude, I was on the fence about subbing until you did the adorable parody of 'As Long As You Love Me'. Now I have to subscribe.

[dogleybarker]

OMG! I was watching your other four chord videos and I'm like what about demons then I was watching this videos and I'm like OMG YAY DEMONS MY FAVOURITE SONG!!! EEK!!

[RipTard]

I'm glad you asked! I'm putting up a "Making of a 4 Chords Video" in 2 weeks, so stay tuned for behind the scenes action!

[RipTard]

Just wait - in two weeks I'm uploading a "Making of a 4 Chords Video" where I show every step of the process!

[jakenolan]

Loved how you included the monster mash!

[catrem]

WE THE KINGS OH MY GOD YES MY FAVE!!!!

[tylerhaines]

You speak and sing clearer than anybody I have ever seen in my entire life.

[rufamaecustoya]

i just got bought a guitar last week, really wanted to play guitar and here i am searching and found you, i thank you very much this really helps me a lot.

[lovisability]

The way you did the accent for Ed Sheeran lol

[siangreenwood]

Brilliant - my boys were (& husband) were captivated watching the basic cords you taught them turn into real songs they knew!

[Drnardinov]

i didn't think i had 7 spare minutes so i didn't ever think i'd watch the whole thing but it just kept getting better and better. Xclnt job on the multiscreen kick in.

[nickjohnson]

this is the first guitar learning tool to actually help in the process in learning, the only thing I have yet to get down is the strumming pattern for each song.

[MichaelARiggs]

As a pianist I look at piano videos and see constructive criticism any people expert or not trying to help each other out. Now I'm trying to learn guitar and seems like all the comments are "self proclaimed experts" trash talking everyone who tries to learn. Like what the crap guitar community. No one was born an expert, everyone has to learn, so get off your narcissistic throne and be nice for once.

[Trekkoazam]

Oh, I just love the 50's progression chord, a lot of songs in the 50's had these chords.

[JohnPaulMartinSBongo]

for a beginner like me, this is the most appropriate video to watch.

[marchisioclaudio]

Someone tell me why he is so damn adorable :)

[scnatce]

Just a little advice, for demons you may prefer to play it with capo on 3rd fret and is almost the same it would be C, G, Am and Fsus2 (if u want it to sound just like the song if not just ignore the comment it was just in case someone prefered it like this).
And in We are never ever getting back together better Cadd9, G, Dsus4 and Em7 (except one little part i will upload a tutorial if somebody wants). No mean comments just wanted to give an advice in case somebody wanted to make it more like the song...
