I wanted to learn this song so bad when I first started playing guitar. but the chord shape was way too challenging for a beginner like me. I ended up giving up after struggling for a few days. Iâve practiced a lot ever since. Now I feel more comfortable with the guitar. Then I remembered this song. So I came back to this video and somehow I didnât find it difficult any more. I seriously couldnât describe the joy I felt.
I just wanna tell anyone whoâs feeling frustrated or want to give up. Just keep practicing! You might not make progress instantly but your hard work will pay off in the end.
I don't think I have the right hand placement/technique even for just barring the second and third strings with my index finger in the very beginning :( his finger is so straight and mine just doesn't bend that way lmao
@@chrisl3193 if you don't play it exactly this way its perfectly fine. Just use whatever free finger you have or change your angle of attack. Just twisting your left wrist makes a world of difference. You can do it
@@freedomgunsandliberty Thank you :) I know having skinny fingers isn't an excuse haha but the more fleshy parts just don't go down far enough. The wrist moving down makes a world of difference though, I'm sure I'll get the hang of it with enough practice
@@chrisl3193 the best guitarist have skeleton hands haha. Once you get your callouses you will be golden. Play til it hurts and eventually the guitar will cry when you play. Dominate that bastard!
Everyone who sticks with guitar for a while can relate to this. Happened to me with Blackbird by the Beatles. It seemed impossible, and I didn't try again for about a year. No better feeling than being able to finally play that tough song
Iâm with someone working on a project for their suicidal friend. This is their favorite song so Iâm learning it to play it for them.
Very kind of you - I hope it helps them on their journey in life
How did it go
@@johnlastname9661 great!
@@ButterWentDark so glad to hear that
They donât wanna do it
I literally just learned this 6 hrs ago, cursing why there's wasnt a tutorial by you.
This video released 4 hrs ago.
Same with me!! I was learning it by watching a tutorial on Justin guitar and although he's great, this particular cover from him felt off. So glad this video is here now
But there is an old video on this channel with the same tutorial
@@pamevidalok Yeah I learnt it off of that, but it doesn't have the entire song in it so I had to learn the rest by ear, and now that i've learnt it by ear this releases lmao oh well
This is the first time in a while where my legitimate guitar experience took over, after he explained the first chord, i just started playing the song, and progressed to the next part without even watching the tutorial on it, and i played the whole song by memory, and by ear. Im genuinely impressed with myself.
lucky
Thatâs good man that means youâre starting to get good. Sooner or later youâll be able to do that with everything
Seems undescribable to me. How on earth can you know what chord to use next just by ear? I don't think I would ever be able to do that.
Amen brother, Iâve hit the point where Iâm actually playing along with the tutorial after one watch through
â@aleksandarkovacevic7699 with experience you'll be able to know which chords make you feel a certain way, or the way each chord sounds, and be able to connect that with the song to identify which chord comes next. In time anyone can learn to do that as it will just come naturally. Really it's like learning a new language.
I started learning guitar from you in 2021 during a Covid Lockdown. Afterwards I got proper lessons. I than went on to learn piano and can play interstellar start to finish. It was on this channel i discovered my love of music and can play almost anything just by listening (does take time tho). Im 17 now, able to watch your videos once and play the whole thing. I love music so much and its all thanks to you.
Thatâs so amazing! Thank you for your support, and for sharing this with me, brings a big smile to my face. Glad to have helped you on your musical journey đ€đ»đž
See, you explain it great, but Iâm just too stupid to do it lmao
LOL mood
Keep practicing bro
thank you for explaining it clearly....unfortunately im a fucking dumbass
@@daponygang You should start with songs that have beginner chords and easy strumming patterns if you havenât yet. Just build up from there, it gets so much easier when you know the rhythm and your left hand can transition faster. Youâre not dumb, every beginner starts from somewhere đ good luck!
you say itâs easy and then you make me cover 2 strings with one finger :,)
I was scrolling through the comments just for this one, so I don't feel alone hahaha
Same here đđ
Iâve been trying and I still canât get it
@@jordynjuarez7629 me too my ring finger can barely reach bc of that
He asks you to because itâs actually easier, those two notes are all you need for that specific part, if you used two fingers would be a bit harder as the actual chord
This is so much better than the other tutorials, you actually EXPLAIN the chords/frets. Iâm a beginner, this was really helpful. Thank you so much! :D
ranboo pfp đ
gogy fan
10 times better than all the other lessons on CZcams. Thanks mate.
Glad it helped!
Hey there, Delilah
What's it like in New York city?
I'm a thousand miles away
But, girl, tonight you look so pretty
Yes, you do
Time square can't shine as bright as you
I swear, it's true
Hey there, Delilah
Don't you worry about the distance
I'm right there if you get lonely
Give this song another listen
Close your eyes
Listen to my voice, it's my disguise
I'm by your side
Oh, it's what you do to me
Oh, it's what you do to me
Oh, it's what you do to me
Oh, it's what you do to me
What you do to me
Hey there, Delilah
I know times are gettin' hard
But just believe me, girl
Someday I'll pay the bills with this guitar
We'll have it good
We'll have the life we knew we would
My word is good
Hey there, Delilah
I've got so much left to say
If every simple song I wrote to you
Would take your breath away
I'd write it all
Even more in love with me you'd fall
We'd have it all
Oh, it's what you do to me
Oh, it's what you do to me
Oh, it's what you do to me
Oh, it's what you do to me
A thousand miles seems pretty far
But they've got planes and trains and cars
I'd walk to you if I had no other way
Our friends would all make fun of us
And we'll just laugh along because we know
That none of them have felt this way
Delilah, I can promise you
That by the time we get through
The world will never ever be the same
And you're to blame
Hey there, Delilah
You be good, and don't you miss me
Two more years and you'll be done with school
And I'll be makin' history like I do
You'll know it's all because of you
We can do whatever we want to
Hey there, Delilah, here's to you
This ones for you
Oh, it's what you do to me
Oh, it's what you do to me
Oh, it's what you do to me
Oh, it's what you do to me
What you do to me
Oh, whoa, whoa
Oh whoa, oh
Oh, oh
Did i just sit here and sing the whole song in my head? Yes, yes i didđ
Tysmmm this is helpfull to look at while i play it on my guitar
@@bojanaslavkoska1310 đ
thank u
Yall I blame quackity he sang it so good so now Iâm trying to play it on my guitar and I have literally no clu wt anything is Iâve never played it-
SAME OMFG ive only been playing guitar for like a month so i have no clue how to do thisđ§
SAME THIS WAS LITERLY MY FAVORITE SONG AND I REMEMBERD BC OF HIM
A
Me to me to
yes quackity has started something
Crazy how I started my guitar journey 1 year and 8 months ago now and this was one of the first songs I tried learning when I first started. Back then reading tabs and finger style for me was something I had never done before so I gave up on the song quickly. In the time since then Iâve learned tons of songs, wrote my own, and currently trying to learn music theory. I had some time today before my class started and decided to give a crack at this song. Surprisingly I managed to learn just about everything in this short time. Itâs exciting really being able to pick up songs this quickly and just goes to show how much practice and commitment to playing comes a long way
litteraly got my guitar today and played for 2 hours till I got this song down , my fingers are f*ckin dead
Omg thats impressive i you just got a guitar.
Ikr! Isn't there a way to play without burning out our fingers, especially the thumb?
@@nkechietudo7325 you'll have to endure for about a week until you get calluses on your fingers or you can search up how to get calluses on your fingers to help with trying to get your fingers calloused. I know how much it hurts when you first start playing but trust me it will get better and will feel rewarding when you finally learn a song on guitar.
I have the hardest time getting the correct sound
Niceeđ„
can you do the song canyon moon by harry styles ? I love that song and i cant understand any body elses lessons except yours
i agree dave would kill itđ
@@naomia6391 dave kills every lesson đ€
Pleaseeeeee please
@@anabellasantos6578 I know right!
This is such a helpful tutorial! But I cannot for the life of me play that damn f#m chord!!!
Been practicing for an hour now, you can use your pinky, works for me then I used my 3rd finger like in the video. Getting better but choppy lol hope this helps! Keep trying I know it's difficult sometimes
When barring the 2 strings turn your pointer finger to the side a bit so the strings arenât on the squishy part of your finger. They will ring out better that way.
@@marymorkunas7184 this actually helped me instantly pretty much, thanks :)
@@marymorkunas7184 really struggling with the f#m chord. Could you elaborate on turning your finger to the side? What do you mean by that?
@@ottojeckerbyrne9236 okay Iâm going to try to explain it better. So when you turn your fingers to the side you can feel that it is more boney feeling then pressing your fingers flat down on the stringers. So what I Like to do and I know others do this too is turn your finger towards the side so the harder part is pressing down. It will definitely take practice and it did for me too and still is hard for me. I hope this is better explanation!
Mate this is a fantastic format. The chord patterns on the left are so helpful. Much easier than the verbal descriptions of positions given by some tutors.
I can't believe I learnt this in 4 days!
Im here bc I want to play this like quackity
Your gonna wanna have the capo on the 2nd fret and play (c , em , c ,em,am,g )then f and g for the part that goes time squar cant shine as bright as you and the ( g chord) for i swear its true and then replay that
@@daniellewis2609 can you play it without the capo as well?
@@bethar7015 yes you can but it will be a little different from how he played it đ
@@daniellewis2609 ok thank you!
personally with i dont think its the best starting song (if you are a new player)
The first ever song I can play from start to finish. Thanks a lot Dave! Youâre the best :)
Beautiful! The vocal track is amazing as well. Thank you!
Very well put together. Easy & comprehensive. Then to end it with complete run through. Great work brother đ
Man this guy is underrated. Please make more Beatles songs tutorials
Awesome Iâve always wanted to learn this entire song. So perfectly executed, thank you so much
Bu......but you're wearing a plain black teeđ
Jk
I haven't watched it yet but i am sure it's gonna be an awesome lesson.
Thanks dave
lol yup I made a bad decision there haha
đđđđđđđ I just noticed that!
I've had some practice playing ukulele and I just picked up guitar now. This may be hard but I'm gonna keep practicing till I can get it, thank you
Glad to see some old videos "remastered", great job Dave! Only thing it's missing is the plain white T you were wearing in the original haha
Hahaha I totally should have wore a white T lol
Such an amazing guitar teacher and always the best lesson format too. Thanks.
The singer nailed the song.â€ïžđŻ
way to go dude. very well put together.
Perfect lesson. Great format, transparent, and accurate. Best guitar lessons on CZcams. Plus vocal collaborations. Outstanding. Thanks David!
Thank you so much for this tutorial to one of my favourite songs, you made my dayqq
Amazing tutorial, very simple and clear.
I want to learn this song because this song gets me inspired thanks Dave for tutorials

Great tutorial, beautiful Song!
Your lessons are always so thoughtful⊠very thorough and easy to understand. Thank you!
man i struggle so hard within the first 2 chords already... like it's so hard to bar alone already and i have to hold another string
edit: oh boy did it get even harder with Bm...
AND EM OMG
Love this video. Just subbed. You broke it down perfectly.
thank you Dave!. I've just started to learn to play a guitar and don't really know much about it. your video makes it so much easier for me. I can now play my first song on my own, but I can't play along with you because I'm still too slow.
I really love each and everyone of your tutorials. Super clear and amazingly made. I've been looking for just breathe by pearl jam but haven't found one made by you yet. Would be awesome if you did end up making one.
Thanks Dave, another excellently delivered straight forward and easy to follow along tuturiol. Tops here in CZcams land imho. đđđ
This is what i waiting for. Thanks you r my hero!
I have been watching this video on repeat for days. I wanna learn how to play this so i can walk into my gfs work, wear her favorite colour, get down on my knee and sing this to her. Thank you for this video! And thank you for helping me learn my gfs favorite song
beautiful in white
Great lesson!
Super lesson brilliant đ€©
I cant get the second cord i think my hands are just too small

@@999clips2 i have been working on it and try with your pinky because i can get it now
bro same iâm struggling BIG TIME
I canât feel my fingers I donât like my guitar anymore
@@alguien5383 hey hey hey, slow down there, i hated learning it but now i can do it with my eyes closed, things like this takes time practice and patience, dont give up so early.
Wonderful guitar, I have the Orangewood Echo and I love it!
This is a great video like always! I've actually been telling people who want to learn guitar or who have kids that want to learn guitar to check out your channel because I feel like your videos provide the most comprehensive tutorials. Thank you for making these videos! I've been playing the guitar for a LONG time, but I feel my playing ability has excelled at a much quicker rate since watching your lessons.
Thanks so much for recommending me Jermiah. Much appreciated :)
There is actually a video creating service I am on called "Likee." I am planning on making some quick videos that show some guitar lessons to help people who are beginners to learn a few things. Do you mind if I promote your CZcams channel on this platform? I feel like your channel would help a lot of people if they actually check it out.
@@jermiahrobertson5810 happy for you to spread the word :) thanks!
Amazing video, thanks so much!
Iâm here cuz everytime I play guitar for someone, they always ask for this song
Great lesson man was just thinking about this song
Excellent tutorial....props
I owe this man a beer đ» thanks for the tutorials friend
thank you!
I love this song and I just got a guitar so thanks!!
Very good explanation of the chords and frets. â
Thank you
Cool!
great video. going to have to play this about 30 times to get used to all the little changes.
I love this musicđ
Omg finally. I love your tutorials and your work man. Btw, can you do Deathbed by Powfu please?
My girlfriend wanted me to learn this song and this was really helpful, I really appreciate the easy to follow tutorial
You have all the best songs tutorial
Oh you released a new one great
Thank you!!
Nice I like this song.
Best tutorial for this song on CZcams!
Thanks Anthony :)
Im learning this song to sing it to a girl. We're having a break rn and ill see her again on February 2nd so next time i see her ill play it for her and hopefully she'll find what she wants in life and she choses me
Oh my gosh did you manage to learn it in time? 2 more days!
@@kaylasbm10 I did learn it timeeee
ya second comment....just had to say.....my dads dog just well not just but she died...six years after he did ... her name was delilah i miss ya sweetie and i love ya dad....im doing the best i can..... i busk this song once in a while.....i learned it here....thank you
wow ok itâs 11 pm here but iâm still gonna learn this now
sorry neighbors
For Bm and G I just press down the 3 strings that need to be pressed down. That makes it really simple going from Bm to G as only the index finger needs to move one fret over, everything else stays the same. Really simple.
Totally acceptable :)
Been loving the content lately, could you do a tutorial on Alberta by Doc Watson next? :)
Thanks!! You made this looks so simple and for the first time I don't get frustrated while learning to play I owe you everything đ€
little request , can you tutorial of" I'll let you down " by frank iero and the patience pleaaaseeee
Been looking for this song tutorial and then you upload it. Nice mind reading there Dave! Lol.
I fell in love with this girl who couldnât shake her drug addiction. Was a hellish road but I think learning this song will help me move on. Wish her nothing but the best đ€đŒ
FINALLYYYYY
I love your lessons!! Could you please do Take On The World by You and Me at Six?
Love this songà„€â€ïžâ€ïžâ€ïžâ€ïžâ€ïž
this is my favorite song now that i have a good mental health state thanks for the help.
great job , wish i could play that
thanks man
Any time!
Great tutorial! Has anyone heard the parodies that have come out of this song? They are gold.
Thanks!
Thanks so much, appreciate the support:)
The first 15 minutes learning this song was stressful I have no idea what chords are in the guitar and itâs kinda stressful when he says something like f sharp or something like that but Iâm gonna come back to this when I practice and easier song.
Brilliant. Thank you. I have a 6th grader guitar student who's wanted to learn this... and you retaught it to me so very quickly. You are a great teacher with techniques of presentation and pertinent information that beats every other tutor I've seen on CZcams.
Truly impressive!
Thank you!! Glad to be of service :)
THANK TOU, MWAH MWAH
Hi Dave, love your stuff mate. If you get a chance can you please teach us David Grayâs âHold Onâ
