- Wichita Lineman is beautiful song written by Jimmy Webb, released in 1968 by Glen Campbell. This is a pretty advanced song with some unusual chords, but my favorite aspect is how much it lends itself to empty space! Check out the demo chapter and you'll see what I mean. There's a lot of content here, so definitely take advantage of skipping around to the chapters you need to review. Much to be enjoyed and learned from with this one.

You're welcome Nancy. Glad you enjoyed the video:)
Thanks Dan I have tried to play this in various ways and sing at the same time for 50 years yes I’m 70 now but your tutorial is as we Aussies say Grouse mate!!!!😊
That's great! So glad you like it! Thanks @AnthoBalto-pj9vl for checking out the video and I'm glad it helped!
Good lesson Glen
Whoa. You're the dude in all those flyers in bodegas and laundromats.
Good acoustic tutorial on this song. It's pretty complex.
Thanks🙏 @tomstulc9143 Hope it was helpful!
@@guitarwithdansmith yes. Never got around to tackling that song with the correct chords and progressions. God Bless
Maybe that 2nd chord is actually a C79sus4?
Hi moreislesslikeso, Unusual chords like that can often be labeled in many ways depending on the context. C79sus4 makes the most sense to me, so I'm with you. But for the record, it could also be called C11sus2, C9sus4, B♭69/C, Gm11, G m7add4/C and F 13sus4/C Yikes! That's a lotta chord names!😬What can I say🤷🏻♂sometimes, I'm a chord nerd.🤓
@@guitarwithdansmith "...sometimes, I'm a chord nerd.“ Well, though certainly being a lot less of a pro than you I guess I'm guilty of that, too. I'm totally aware that many chords can have multiple "interpretations" in regard of what you choose to be the central reference point (or note), but as that chord here appears - to my ears - to quite decidedly want to resolve to F as the supposed tonic I find it most natural to see it as some form of dominant V chord in relation to F. While C79 to me seems like the second most basic of these here I tend to see the F note on the D string as a sus4 to that chord.
Anyway, this is a very good and easy to follow tutorial on "Wichita Lineman", which has been a favorite song of mine for many years and I'm happy to have found this!

That Dm doesn’t match what I’m hearing. Sounds too assertively dark. Maybe an Dm7 played on frets 1-2? Or maybe I’m just hearing things. 😅
love this arrangement and your teaching style but I can't get my little finger anywhere near that B♭maj7 🙂 Are there any beginner workarounds ?
Thank you for checking out this video John. I'm so glad you like it. I just uploaded a video for some easier fingerings for B♭maj7. czcams.com/video/82DmC9TPnnw/video.html Hope that helps! Let me know how it goes:)
