Never a truer word spoken Marty great tune and lesson.
Can you try playing the e minor with a Gb (second fret on high e string)and D (third fret on b string) ? I hear that once the bass starts. What do you think?
America (the band) were phenomenal = Unique and catchy-strumming patterns. Love the vocal harmonies. Some of the greatest songs ever written, were in the 70's.
Agreed. The Beach Boys have recorded with Gerry Beckley who happens to be an amazing musician, as is Dewey Bunell, they all wrote the songs they performed and they all had their own styles. Dewey Bunell songs (like this one) always had major 7ths and other extensions. And yes the harmonies were tight and beautiful
And '60's. :)
I heard statistics from a radio announcer that the 70’s had the greatest diversity of genres hit wise .. so much good music .. yes I agree and later 60’s
Great music that is being rediscovered by millions …
Thanks Marty
Last sentence is pure fact. The best songs are 60s - 70s
Unnecessary comma
In my opinion, this is the first song you should learn on guitar. Its simplicity helps you get used to the basics, such as how to hold a guitar, how to properly strum, become adjusted to chords, etc. After mastery, you can start to move on to harder beginner challenges, like in my experience, Hurt by Johnny Cash (originally Nine Inch Nails).
Just a friendly comment to help those still at the very beginning like me :)
You can also keep circling back to this song, learn slap strumming, triplets, embellishments, apply the rhythm to getting the horse trot.
It is the 1st song I learned but struggle with it sounding right. It is actually a 9 chord song rather than only one. For newbies that might be hearing the same. Was happy to see this added to your collection. Can you do Far Behind, Candlebox and Fade into You, Maddy Star pleeeeeeease!?
You've tought this about 10 years ago.
This is how I've learned my first guitar song. 10 years ago!
Thank you!
Definitely one of the first songs I ever learned. A simple, yet very powerful song to show how intricate it is. Cheers as always Marty
Marty's the only person to have been with me my whole guitar career. From first learning to intermediate, then from taking a long long break to coming back. OG fr
Walter White
America
@@emotionalglooms u have to watch breaking bad dude :D
heisenberg
A truly American song, well played Marty
Fun Fact : Ironically they are not American 😂
What u mean is, a truly America aaaaa song. Not American.
America not American. Song.
Actually I thought Marty jazzed it up a bit with bluesy kind of strumming
@@davidkastin4240 all of the members are American, however they originate in the UK
Nice video! This is the music that I was hearing as a child with two older siblings. America’s sounds always seem so vibrant and capable of affecting my emotional state - like it just takes you to another place and time - IMHO 👍🏻
I can’t begin to say how much you’ve helped me throughout every song I could have wanted to learn, thank you Marty
Marty is a true guitarist...teaching every possible voicing known and unknown!
Simple and beautiful.
Beautifully simple!
Thanks Mr Marty Man. ❤
One of my favorite acoustic jams. It’s actually one of the first songs I’ve ever learned but still play it often lol. Appreciate it Marty!
Please do the solo to eruption Marty the world needs it 😭
Literally looking at this video in the kitchen and what comes in the radio, freaky!!!!!!!!!😮😮
Thanks marty for your consistency.👊
Talk about an unsung hero. I remember first learning with Marty's videos nearly fifteen years ago. Much love for this man.
I play this with the 2 chords but I now know some little "accents" I can add. Thanks Marty!
I love America. Definitely would love to see more songs by America but also by Bread another one of my favorite bands of my youth.
Remember hearing this on gta San Andreas
The way you were playing it I was hearing a couple of notes that reminded me of a song called Spooky by The Atlanta Rhythm Section. I've always loved both these songs.
Marty music, talented guy with even spreaded positive vibes in every single videos, full of energy and always there to teach them beginners! Thank you marty💪🏻
Hey Marty, thank you for the A Horse With No Name guitar lesson. Appreciated!!!
Yes one of my favorite songs. Thank you Marty!
Love this one. Classic.
Literally first day learning how to play guitar and just learned EM A9 for this song. Long story short idk how y’all do it I feel like the bit of knowledge I got today is just a grain of sand in the guitarsphere
From the little I know of playing guitars (I'm still a novice, or whatever the lowest "level" is), that is VERY accurate
One of the first I learned. Thanks for reminding me of this song marty
Thank you so much, Horse With No Name is more than just one of the greatest songs ever, it's always an unforgettable experience!
Marty, you are the real guitar OG, God bless you!
😂sorry marty I lost my shit when you said " if you're a beginner duh duh duh, duh duh, "😂😂😂😂
Classic song this is. it was one of the first songs i learned on guitar ,great beginner song though probably one of the easiest keep up the great work marty 🤟
Yeah!!!
Thanks! Marty thanks so much for your lessons, I'm a third time trying adult beginner. Your videos and the positivity you imbue them with are really helping. Sending you appreciation and a couple of bucks from Ireland :)
If your just giving money away can I have some I really need it
@@Butchass6969 Marty works and makes people happy and satisfied, Marty made this guy happy and satisfied so he gave him money because of his work. What about you, what do you do to deserve money like this?
Thanks Marty! Nice to see it done by you ❤
Yes!
I love the solo on horsey song and it is more complicated the way america did it
Great
thanks so much, i'm on a mission to play this
Thank you for showing me the way in playing this righteous tune my man.
This song was one of my first favorite songs before I turned 12
Thank you Marty, great help in brightening up this song to make it more interesting, and easy too! You've helped me before, thank you. Steve (UK) (subscribed).
Hey Marty, I'm loving the tutorials. I've been back into Godsmack recently and I was wondering if you could please do a tutorial on Keep Away. Thanks!
Nice easy acoustic jam baby!
love this song thats very nice marty love it
Thanks for the lesson waltuh
Love when you go back and re-do old videos man
Thank You Marty! for being so encouraging‼️
I just started learning to play this song, and while it is definitely one of the easiest to learn it still has that curve to it. At the time of writing this, I think I'm about 30 - 35% of the way through playing this song right. For context, I started playing guitar almost 3 months now (started the first week of October).
Marty!
Wowowow ! The second variation sounds beautiful. I‘ll try that next. In thankful regards, my ears ❤
Great song. Thanks Marty!
This is an easy song to practice singing it while playing it on the guitar
San Andreas !
Thank You Marty! Just a Big Thank you!
MARTY PLZ: Then Came the Last Days of May Blue Oyster Cult guitar tutorial!!! I can't find one anywhere and the licks are awesome. Love the channel, have learned so much over the years :)
Please do a tutorial for ventura highway too! I love your stuff!
I have GTA San Andreas on the ps2 to thank for so much music.
Jesse. Jesse wake up we have to play A Horse With No Name!
Very simple Em and G combo tbh I prefer it more over the complicated stuff it sounds much better on my guitar it's literally the same as the song. 😁
Maybe people who are not from America know this song from GTA SA, including me. Salam dari Indonesia ❤
Easy but great song
Oldie but goodie! Marty is the master!! 🥰🥰🥰
Love it
I'm gona be a good boah and learn this
Great tutorial as usual! You should do some MXPX tutorials.
I just started watching some of your tutorials and this was one of the songs that came to my mind to learn how to play, so it's so cool seeing that you just released this just days before.
this is song is reasonably difficult with palm muting, great song to practice that technique
Can you do a lesson for Here Comes Your Man by the Pixies?
Hey !! He made the lesson just after this one !
An incredibly overwhelming amount of the greatest music came from the seventies, absolutely true.. 60's too.... And 90's for sure. 80s even carried some of the best, and the 2000's... but NOT the 2010's, and well see about the 20's
thank you this was very helpful
hey marty great classic song tutorial. Could you do a tutorial of Wasting love - iron maiden?
Good job , Marty with the party!😊
A simple index and thumb song for all of use thumb over players.
COREY STEELE AND THE LAFAYETTE LIGHT CAVALRY applauds El maestro MARTY
Great lesson! Didn’t you already do this song though a few years back?
Could you please do a tutorial on “Crazy on You” by Heart
We named the horse Rocking
Hi Marty. I love the stuff you’re putting out lately, but I did realize that your Sultans of Swing mini series doesn’t have a lesson for the lead guitar licks and arpeggios. Could you make that? It would be extraordinarily cool and will complete the series imo because you’ll know how to play every part of that song. It’s now my favorite song after picking up guitar.
Too bad were not in the same neighborhood I've known the bass lines for this song for many years, actually since it came out in 1972. One of the first songs I learned on bass guitar.
thanks you
Teach the intro to “is there anybody out there”
Marty have you ever done a lesson of a song called We are the people from empire of the sun, Its such a beautiful song and when ever i watch someone else teaching there not as amazing as you. Not sure if people request songs but this one would be a good one. Been watching you for 11 years now and have always succeeded with my guitar playing skills. (Also im trying to impress my girlfriend as she loves this song)
Pretty AWESOME
F#minor sounds so much easier than D 6/9 /F#
Nice! Please make a tutorial the White Braids & Pillow Chair by RHCP
Hello Marty, It would be a massive help if you could make a tutorial on Wednesday Morning 3 AM by Paul Simon. It is a great song and I love your videos. Massive Thanks.
👍
Can you do a wanted dead or alive bonjovi guitar lesson.
One of the guitarist in America playes higher up with a capo also.
Please do rebel by Anne Wilson
Can you please do Tumbling dice - The Rolling Stones ❤❤❤
Can you please do Forget Me by Lewis Capaldi??
Any chance you could do a tutorial on 4+20 by CSNY?
am literaly watching through breaking bad again, this song just played...
request! can you play; "Take the last dance with me" by Grumpynators please:)
Can you do conquer or die
by megadeath
the start of it
SONG WASN'T RECORDED IN STANDARD TUNING. THAT'S WHY THIS SOUND OFF. IF YOU WANT AN EASY WAY THAT SOUNDS VERY CLOSE TRY THIS Em IS CORRECT BUT FOR THE SECOND CHORD PLAY THE 3RD STRING AT THE SECOND FRET AND THE 4TH & 5TH STRINGS AT THE FOURTH FRET. STRUM ALL STRINGS. JUST LISTEN TO THE SONG TO GET THE STRUMMING CORRECT. MARTYS IS NOT. THE CORRECT TUNING IS FROM THE 6TH STRING ON DOWN IS DEDGBD THEN YOU CAN USE THE Em AND PLAY THE 6TH AND 3RD STRING AT THE SECOND FRET. STRUM ALL STRINGS.
Marty, what about the riff in the middle of the song?
Can you do a tutorial for wax fang majestic please and thank you
Surely it's easier and sounds better, to do what I've been doing and slide up to the barre f#m?
I mean...
022000 -- barre 244222...
That's pretty simple.
Middle two fingers stay as is and slide up two, then bar the 2nd fret...
When I was younger, I thought this was a neil young song lol 😂
