I got a request to figure out Alicia Keys’ No one, in the same style as the Outkast vid I’ve uploaded a while ago.
I like the song and I had some time to spare this afternoon, so I gave it a try. It’s more of an impression, but
as you can see it’s doable. If you want it to be perfect, you’ll have to put some effort in it. She sings a lot of notes
in so few bars…insane.
Chords I use: C,G,Am,F and play the melody with the index and pinky, bass notes with the ring and middle finger.

Sorry ’bout the sloppy camerawork, at least the tutorial at the end is visible.
Good luck.

update: Tabs

The basics are:
C G
E:———————0—————–|————————
B:————————-3—1—0—-| 3-1-3—————-
G:———-0—————————-|———–0———–
D:——2——-2———————–|—————-0——-
A:–3————————————|————————-
E:—————————————-| 3———————
Am F
E:—————————-0-|–1———–0————–
B:——————–1—3—–|——1————3-1-0——
G:———-2——————-|———-2——————–
D:——2——2—————-|——————————–
A:–0—————————-|——————————–
E:——————————–|–1—————————–

The ‘You and me together’ part is:
C G Am
E:—3—0————3–0——0–1–3–5–3–0————–0–1–3–
B:————1——————————————–1–3—————
G:—————–0————————————————————
F
E:–1———1——–0———————
B:—–1———1———–3—1—0——-
G:———2———2———————0—

And the verse, well…you should be able to figure it out after this tab, together with the video (sorry, have to get back to work). If you don’t get it, just let me know.

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.
