For anyone who’s confused by the tuning, it’s basically everlong tuned down a half step. In guitar tuna it’s -30 -10 -10 -10 -10 -10. Or put capo on 1st fret and simply tune to drop d.

This is literally the first tutorial I've seen with this camera angle. Immediately subscribed! I love AIC.

Please do more tutorials like this, you’re YouTube presence would go through the roof. Tons of guys like me trying to learn AIC songs on acoustic. Your cover are out of this world. Please strongly consider more tutorials. 🤘

Camera Angle is great, to bring your right hand in too. So I can see the picking pattern. And on top, you put the tabs. ... Thank you, Nate!

[rakabadi]

You got me to to pull the guitar from its case, after about a year it was laying there.
Thank you.

[skeetlarson]

So much better than the tabs i was finding. You include the bass and it gives it so much more life. Thanks again for proving to be one of the best under-rated musicians on youtube.

what am i doing here???? I don't even have a guitar

[NeptunianDream]

Nate!!! I've been learning this for a few weeks but always found your version you posted the best. Thank you!!!!

[danesanders]

Actually the most authentic tutorial on YouTube. Thank you for putting the time and effort into translating the exact notes

[johnlaurinaitis]

Dude I was literally trying to learn this today without a good tutorial

[loudoge]

This is honestly the best tutorial I've seen on YouTube for this song. The camera angle + including the picking/strumming pattern earned you an instant subscriber 😎 Please make more like this!

I grew up watching your Alice in chains covers I just had the biggest crush on you good to see your still at it!:)

[jxbusic]

Outstanding. I've been subbed to your channel for years because of your terrific covers. Couldn't think of a better person to do a tutorial of this classic. Thank you.

[summerc]

So many diff ways to play this song! Great job on the teaching. Picked it up fairly quickly 👍

[matthewrylee]

You are the man! I love the version you play. This is a great tutorial by the way. Been watching your covers for a long time, glad to see you're still at it.

[mattdad]

Maaan, I love how you did the above-the-fretboard view. So many people do it classic "hey watch this" style, and it kinda gets hard to tell what they're really doing. Nicely done, sir.

Guitar tuning: Half A Step Down.
Alice In Chains predominantly use this tuning on the majority of their songs. Aka- E Flat.
They also alternate between Open C Tuning & Open D Tuning.

I tried a dozen tabs and finger charts for a month and couldn’t get it. The camera angle and breakdown was perfect and in 10 minutes I’m jamming it like I’ve played it my whole life. It has to be keyed down to correct tuning for it to work :) Brilliant! And your cover of it is awesome too! Thanks dude!

[villeruokonen]

Dumb me been watching you cover this many many times, trying to learn the song from that, since there is no good tabs anywhere.

Today I realised this is the same dude teaching how to play it lol xD

This was great and very helpful, thank you.
Now it's time to start jamming ;)
