Youve gotta learn the guitar portion of the song to the point where its second nature, where you can practically do it in your sleep. Kinda like what that other guy said; if you can talk to someone while youre playing (which I think is harder than actually singing the song; at least with singing you...

I just watched the video here at work... You really ought to give that a try by yourself, he shows you everything you need to see so it shouldnt be hard. Just throw your hands on there around the 8th or 9th fret (couldnt see) and just start looking for the notes. Even if you suck this ones completel...

--x----x-- --x----3-- --4----0-- --5----4-- --7----5--- --x----x-- Try skipping that b string 8th altogether; leaving it out keeps that chord manageable and I think it sounds better anyway without the jangly high note (or maybe I'm just telling myself that since it gives me trouble too).

1. clapton - nobody knows you when youre down and out (unplugged, this song is simply fun as hell to play) 2. rusted root - send me on my way - good intro to finger-picking and for getting some coordination into that right hand (besides, um, the obvious) 3. crowded house - better be home soon ('caus...

And if not for the fact that you (poster) used the phrase 'youngsters', Id guess you to be about 17, but Ill skip that, too (because god knows theres nothing wrong with being 17 , it just sounded like a very 17-year-old thing to say).
