This was the first song I learned to play, at the age of 11. To this day, 47 years later, every time I pick up my guitar, it's the first song I play. Thank you for putting this video out so others can learn this wonderful song!

For me it was otherside by red hot chilli Peppers. I was 19, I took the guitar for the first time and was practicing every day for 8 hours for next two weeks until I got it right. Now I am 29, barely have time to play guitar but when I do I always play my first song *dedicated* to the guitar. The old guitar that is too big for my hand (and on wich I taught myself to play) is a otherside dedicated My 2nd guitar, cheap plastic one bought online just so the old one could survive a bit longer, is a Delilah dedication. I learned Delilah in honor of my Grandfather, he loved that song

I really dig this musician's easy going style of teaching. I appreciate how he gets that we beginners want to learn guitar by playing real songs that people actually enjoy hearing. It's too bad that trolls and haters will give videos like this one a thumbs down. I think they're missing the point entirely.

Oh ! David sir, within last 8 to 10 months I watched your this Tutorial on Country roads song so many a time and tried to play it. You have taught it very perfectly and precisely how to strum the Chords for country songs. I like the way you teach and like your voice, too ! I went through other video tutorials on this song, but I liked yours one the most. Thanks for teaching us. God bless you and your family and your team.

Chords: G Em C D Chord Progression: G Em D C, G D C G (Pluck E string before all strums) P= pluck P D UDU x2 (2 times per chord) And for 2nd part and chorus 2nd part you switch in the middle of the strum. EX: G---- P D UDU x2 D---- P D UDU P (switch) C---- D UDU x2 G---- P D UDU x2 HOPE THIS HELPED!

I've loved this song for a while, and I'm so happy I found this video. I've learned 2 chords and a song from watching this video. I'm glad you decided to show how to do the chords because I didn't know an F or a D7 but I got the hang of them really quick. When you showed the chart of the chords for the verse, chorus, and bridge, and you showed the strumming patterns, I just picked it up and sang and played it. One of my favorite decisions I've ever made is clicking on this video.

Today again I watched your this Tutorial as I wished to play Country roads song again. In last nearly 18 months I have gone through your tutorial so many a time but couldn't play it well enough as I found difficulties in transitioning between the chords. But now I have developed it a little bit and therefore I played the song today and had fun. Thnx David sir.
@thomasfrey8561

Before you play a song - any song just learn to transition smoothly between all the „beginner chords“ meaning Am, E, Em, D, G and if you feel funny, even F, it’ll come to you way easier to learn any given beginner song :) startet with guitar like 4 months ago, but it’s the same as Piano, which I played for a long time :)
