I just want to correct myself at 5:00, the strumming pattern is DDU-DDU-DUD-UUDU. Sometimes explaining while recording is difficult on my brain as you can probably tell lol. Hopefully you figured that out and I apologize for my dumbass :)

@barsenkhtur3503 3 года назад

so the last chord is UUDU?

@izzyjones490 4 года назад

Hey great tutorial! I just wanted to add that I think the slide is actually from the 9th fret to the 11th, not the 10th. I listened to the song more closely and watched Declan’s tutorial so that’s why I think it’s the 11th. But yeah other than that, your tutorial is the one that taught me to play this! Thank you!!!!

@MacyJacob 4 года назад

Izzy Jones You’re totally right, I used the picture at 3:04 to learn the riff and not from Declan’s tutorial. You can play it either way!

@daphnerashid4785 4 года назад

when you play the bar chord, it helps to have your pointer finger kind of on its side against the strings, instead of flat across, it's going to lay on its side, if that makes sense. That helped me sooo much when I was learning

katie wettergren That’s honestly a great idea ! but the sad truth is that we small handed people just have to accept it :( the only way around playing a chord too difficult for small hands is to play an alternate chord or a similar chord. The more you practice playing a difficult chord, however, the easier it will be to play eventually. Keep trying !!
