Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life)
For a moment we go to the 1990's.

During this lesson I zoom in on the right hand strumming. At 8:22 you get my perspective and get to see what I see. This may help you with the palm muting technique. I do this in the beginning of the verse and the introduction.

Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life) Green Day cover
Here's another song that one of my online students is learning. This one is from the 1990's.
Here's another song that one of my online students is learning. This one is from the 1990's.
This is a song example/cover song. This video was done in one take. I'll be making a video on this song and put the lead sheet in the book.
Some of my older students may not be familiar with this song but If you like it let me know!
Thanks,

Hello everyone!
In my Fingerpicking 101 video I used the intro to Nothing Else Matters to teach a simple way to practice right hand technique. I have gotten questions like, "What song is that?" So, finally, I decided to do a guitar lesson on Nothing Else Matters.
It's not complicated and uses open position chords as well as a few barre chords.
It was very popular back in the early 1990's. Let's see what you think.

Mary Jane's Last Dance guitar lesson
Tom Petty wrote this song in 1993. If you look at the original video is a bit of a bizarre journey. Tom plays a morgue's assistant and takes a corpse who is played by Kim Basinger. He dresses her up, makes dinner for her, they watch TV together, they dance, and all the time she is dead. At the end she opens her eyes.

The words seem to have drug overtones but Heartbreaker guitarist Mike Campbell said, “...when it gets to the chorus he had the presence of mind to give it a deeper meaning. My take on it is it can be whatever you want it to be. A lot of people think it's a drug reference, and if that's what you want to think, it very well could be, but it could also just be a goodbye love song."
I love songs that have no clear message and the listener can imagine whatever they want the song to be.
The chords are simple. Am, G, D, Em, A - all open position chords. But then we can use half barre chords up the neck all the way to the 12th fret in some parts.
The use of hammer-on chords are tricky and so this song is a good exercise in working with those on the open G and D chords.
In the lead section there is a signature double stop riff that just can't be left out but most of the intricate guitar work in the original recording I skipped over making my own arrangement instead. This song has many layers as a band arrangement but you have to simplify when playing solo.
I did use a looper during the solo section so that you can hear the main chord progression in the background while the double stop riff and lead is playing.
There is also a backing track starting at 17:31 until 19:05 just in case you want to practice the lead section yourself.
Let me know if you have any questions!
