- The 3 Chords of Rock n Roll. This is a video I uploaded to a Bruce Springsteen fan page on Facebook to help beginners pick up the guitar. I should say that if you want to play along with the studio version, you need standard tuning and CAPO 2.
“All you need is 3 chords and the truth!” Haha... Put this one off because it was so easy, but finally wrote it all out to add to my campfire collection... what a great song! And my Jersey Girl mother (Jersey City), will love it, as she’s the one that introduced me to The Boss when I was a baby... and I still can’t get enough at 48yrs old! Thanks again for another good one Tony!
Awesome! I can't wait to go back! Cheers
Jersey girl, and huge Springsteen fan, Love your videos, teaching myself acoustic, (I play Piano, drums, and saxophone) love how you simplify everything. Still have to smooth out switching between chords, but getting better. Thank you!
Thank you! Gonna post Bruce's Jersey Girl version soon. Make sure to subscribe!
This was great! Thank you Tony.
Thanks bud ..made simple and easy to follow along, play and sing.. Peace Kevin from Blainville
Thanks man Bruce Springsteen is cool
Kudos 👌
Wow what a pleasant surprise. I was looking for a lesson on this song for Sunday and there you were 🙂👍👍
Haaa nice brother! See you Sunday:)
This made me smile. Thanks.
Apaixonada estou, quero aprender tocar violão.
Thank you very much sir. I'm trying to learn this song and this video is the BEST I have found to get me going. And I may end up learning two songs from this video. How cool is that? Thanks again. Vincent
Awesome Vincent! Glad you enjoyed it :)
Great job, Tony. Could you do the acoustic alternative version of Blood Brothers?
Thank you! I love that song. You reminded me that I need to watch that documentary again. Cheers!
@@tonyglen33 Looking forward to seeing your awesome version of Blood Brothers!
Another great video. Do you have any tips on developing a natural strumming pattern?
I always attack a song in three steps.
1. Chords
2. Singing (while playing)
3. Strumming
By the time I get to #3, the strumming is just there :) Give it a try, cheers!
@@tonyglen33 thank you I think you are right. I will try this
The original is in the Key of A, but these chords work as well. www.musicnotes.com/sheetmusic/mtd.asp?ppn=MN0061618

That's not the point of the video. Those 3 chords are what I'm teaching and I mention Capo 2 in the description. Thanks for commenting :)
@@tonyglen33 I said those chords work, but if anyone plays along with the record to practice, they would be off. It is easier for beginners to play it your way. It also depends on the singer’s vocal range as well. Dylan constantly changes the arrangements and key of his songs. I am working on ear training, so try to play in the key of the recording for practice. It was more a reference for your students; I realize you know the key as a professional player. You did put in the title that it was a beginner lesson, so I knew you had an easier chord structure.
@@GaryBook Cool. More songs to follow in the same chord structure. Best of luck with your ear training.
@@tonyglen33 I subscribed to your channel, even thought I am more advanced then a beginner, I use these simpler lessons for my ear training and working on hearing the changes. It is a life’s work. Thanks to Rick Beato, I have been able to get into advanced music theory. czcams.com/users/RickBeato
@@GaryBook Thank you Gary. I like him too. Interesting content.
Nice! Can you comment on your strumming pattern please?
Hi Mikey, I wish I could but it's 100% feeling. In my opinion, the order of importance is chords, vocals and then the strumming should come naturally as the third piece. I hope this helps.
@@tonyglen33 Thanks for the reply!
