How to Play "Thats Alright Mamma" by Elvis Presley

Learn how to play Elvis Presley's Thats Alright Mamma
on the acoustic guitar in this 5 min 13 sec video tutorial.

Note: If you don't know an A chord from a C chord,
these tutorials are not for you!

My name is Kirby and I'm originally from the east coast of Canada from a small town in Nova Scotia of about 1100 people called Western Shore. If you blink while passing thru, you may miss it. Currently I live in our nations capital, Ottawa ON. It's a city of about 850,000 (quite a jump from 1100), but a great place to live.

What I enjoy doing as a musician, since I was 7 years old, is of course playing the guitar. I love learning new songs and teaching others.

Not real good

A tells you exactly what to do (so to speak), but takes a whole lot of stuff for granted and talks way too fast. If this stuff would come with a simple tab that would be great. If you spend enough time, you can get what he is trying to say, it just seems it should be a little easier. The video is a little fuzzy, I really didn't pick up very much the first few times through.

I doubt I'll buy another if they are all like this one.

He shows you but does not teach you

Great guitar playing and good singing.
I would love to be able to play this but he just shows how to play not teaches. What do I mean. Well, think of it this way.

Showing someone.... first you do this this and this.. next we do this and that and this and that.

Teaching someone.. Okay put your first finger on the third fret second string, now your second finger on the second string on the fourth fret. Now strum like this up down down up....
