Aside from betty, this is one of my favorite from folklore! Because august is my birth month as well as my father's anniversary in heaven. So thank you so much for this! Love all your tutorials!
:) firstly get you hand on strumming. If you can play it without speaking strumming pattern in your mind then you can def move on to singing :) it works for me
Salt air, and the rust on your door I never needed anything more Whispers of "Are you sure?" "Never have I ever before" But I can see us lost in the memory August slipped away into a moment in time 'Cause it was never mine And I can see us twisted in bedsheets August sipped away like a bottle of wine 'Cause you were never mine Your back beneath the sun Wishin' I could write my name on it Will you call when you're back at school? I remember thinkin' I had you But I can see us lost in the memory August slipped away into a moment in time 'Cause it was never mine And I can see us twisted in bedsheets August sipped away like a bottle of wine 'Cause you were never mine Back when we were still changin' for the better Wanting was enough For me, it was enough To live for the hope of it all Cancel plans just in case you'd call And say, "Meet me behind the mall" So much for summer love and saying "us" 'Cause you weren't mine to lose You weren't mine to lose, no But I can see us lost in the memory August slipped away into a moment in time 'Cause it was never mine And I can see us twisted in bedsheets August sipped away like a bottle of wine 'Cause you were never mine 'Cause you were never mine, never mine But do you remember? Remember when I pulled up and said, "Get in the car" And then canceled my plans just in case you'd call? Back when I was livin' for the hope of it all, for the hope of it all "Meet me behind the mall" Remember when I pulled up and said, "Get in the car" And then canceled my plans just in case you'd call? Back when I was livin' for the hope of it all (For the hope of it all) For the hope of it all For the hope of it all (For the hope of it all) (For the hope of it all)
Hi, Ellen! I'm just new to learning guitar and I'm glad I found your videos on youtube. I tried watching other people's video tutorial but I could not seem to get it, but when I watched yours everything seemed easy and I like the way you teach; it is very understandable and polite and friendly. Thanks for teaching me play one of my favorite songs "august". I hope you would do cover for " right where you left me" also by Taylor Swift so that I could learn to play it. Thank you so much! God bless you!
hi everyone! to those having a hard time with the strumming pattern, i think DD UUU DUDU works pretty well with the song too. try playing with the strumming until you find one that seems to fit and feels natural for you to play.
i'm glad you like my time guide! people have told me in the past that it was helpful so i started adding into all my full length tutorials to make navigating easier! 🤗
thanks so much for watching, and i'm glad you find them helpful! 🤗 i've got lots more taylor tutorials on my channel so i hope you'll check out some others! 💕
my posting schedule has been all over the place lately, but new fast track for another folklore album song is coming soon! i wonder what it could be... 😉
Hey Ellen! I love your tutorials. May I ask do you have a specific tutorial to teach how to do the muted sound when strumming up? down is easier, but I can't do the up. That's frustrating...
Actually, if you're talking about the palm muting technique, most people tend to only mute the down strums and let the up strums ring out. 👍 I have a video talking about this that you may find helpful! 🤗 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-SAAcV_nBwxc.html
4 days ago I posted here that the A chord was impossible. I changed my strings to 10s and practiced more and now I can do it. Just gotta get faster at changing chords now
This is a great tutorial! Question: I can play with you at the end if I’m just playing the chords, but I can’t keep up with you when I start strumming because I can’t get my fingers to the next chord in time/ don’t know when to switch. Any helpful tips? 🙏 Thank you! 🥰
Great tutorial..I can't sing strum and do chord transitions all in one go.I can do all of it individually, And y tips on how to put it all together? thank u!
Hii, i've watched some of your tutorials. Just loved it! Please can you make one of Would've, Could've, Should've by Taylor, please? I haven't found tutorial with a such good quality and so alike to the songs as yours.
