Easy (i hope) to learn sweet home alabama guitar tutorial, plz coment, i hope this helps. Please comment and tell me if i helped, or what to improve on.

The last part gets a bit confuseing, so ill try to exsplan it here:
1) Pick the 3rd string on the 2nd fret with your pointer.
2) While taking your pointer off of it, pluck it with your pointer finger.
3) Then play the open 3rd string.
4) Then play it with the 3rd string fretted on the 2nd fret.
5) then play open string.
6) Then play 3rd string 4rth fret.

NOTE!!
The way I do the hammar-ons in the video is not the correct way. I showed that way because it somewhat sounds like the real thing and also it is much easyer than the real thing. I will probably post the real way in another video. Thanks!

If you want to know the real way it is posted as a video response to this one.

Basic Chord progression:
dm7 - am7 - em7 - FM7

(complete tabs/chords are below)

My beginner tutorial on how to play J. Holiday’s Suffocate on Guitar. I’m relatively new to guitar and tutorials (been playing seriously for about 6 months), so please send or comment me any feedback/suggestions. Also feel free to msg with questions. Hope the tutorial helps some people learn the song. =)

*Note: I used different versions of the same chords (dm7, am7, em7, FM7) for different parts of the song. I did this to 1. Stay true to the original arrangement as much as possible 2. Illustrate that you can play the same chord in many different ways on a guitar 3. Make certain transitions easier (the bridge). For example, I have 3 different versions of the dm7 chord, one for the intro, one for the verse/chorus, and one for the bridge.

How to learn all your chords on the neck by using the CAGED sequence! 5 Primary chord voicings used to construct any kind of chord by applying chord formulas.

Here are the voicings for all 5 shapes reading from the lowest tone or string.

C shape = 1-3-5-1-3

A shape = 1-5-1-3-5

G shape = 1-3-5-1-3-1

E shape = 1-5-1-3-5-1

D shape = 1-5-1-3

The numbers indicate the degree or note from the scale in which the notes were taken. example.. the C major scale consists of the notes C=1 D=2 E=3 F=4 G=5 A=6 B=7. When constructing a chord using a Tertian (Thirds) method you would select a note, and from that point select every other note, till you have a total of three notes. That’s how easy it is!

Example…If I select C=1 then I would skip D=2 and select E=3, skip F=4 and select G=5 giving me three notes C=1-E=3-G=5, or 1-3-5. Any combination of these three notes will play a C Major chord. This process can be continued from each note of the scale giving you the diatonic corrasponding chords.

C Major, D minor,E minor,F Major,G Major, A minor (Relative Minor), and B minor flat 5th or diminished 5th.

These are the chords you would use to compose a chord progression or vamp for writing in the key of C Major.

a good exercise for learning this is to make a blank guitar neck grid sheet. Replace all the notes with numbers starting with C as 1. Use this to find all the CAGED shapes. It is also great for melodic phrasing when learning how to use target notes. Target notes are notes to stress or resolve to that best capture the essence of the chord you are soloing over.

Example… If I am soloing over a C major chord I would stress the notes C E G or even B if it was a Major 7 chord. From the same key you will notice that a D minor chord uses D,F,A, or 2-4-6. Stress those tones if that chord comes up. This is obviously a generic way to play but a good foundation for understanding target notes and melodic soloing.

Hope this helps!

Thanks
