Video Title: Your Song Lesson
I guess so today we’re going to learn the introduction to your song by Elton John for guitar so it’s the piano part adapted for guitar so first I’ll play it through your slowly and then after that we’ll break it down and measure by measure so you can learn and follow
Along if you haven’t noticed yet it’s the guitar has tuned down a half step so the strings are a flat a flat D flat G flat B flat and E flat so you can play along with the original element version if you want to So let’s take a look at the first bar on the first beat we’re going to use our thumb and our middle finger to pick the E and B strings then we’re going to take our first finger and a middle finger to do the next two eighth notes So so far we have then we use our thumb to strike our higher e note and then use our ring finger there’s kind of a weird finger to use when your finger picking to pull off from the fourth fret to an open e so all together that looks like this One more time and make sure when you’re pulling off with your pinky on the fourth fret to the open string that you use it to pull the string So it helps to stay in that note Moving on to our next chord it’s our 4 chord so we’re basically playing an a bar chord or take off the bass note so it looks like this So our first beat we’re gonna use our thumb our first finger and our ring finger to hit this open e this C sharp and the g-string and this a on the E string so it’ll look like this the next we’re gonna hit two eighth notes using our middle finger and our index finger
And then we’re gonna use our thumb to hit the next note ring finger to pluck the high e middle finger to hit the b string so all together that looks like this one more time slowly Our next chord is our five chord our five chord starts out with a hammer on which is a little tricky we’re gonna start with an open E and the sixth fret on the g string a c-sharp and then we’re gonna hammer onto the eighth fret right
Away so it looks like this and then we use our thumb date this B which is the ninth fret on the D string middle finger to hit the seventh fret on the B string so that’s a fire is And then this first finger we’d use to start with our our sixth fret that we hammered on off of its going to come down and hit the seventh fret on the a string and then we’re gonna finish by using your middle finger and your index
Finger to hit eighth on the g string and seven on the g string so the whole thing looks like this one more time Our last chord is moving back to our 4 chord so it’s an a with an e in the bass note the first two notes of this are going to be an open E and in high a which is 5th fret on the E string and then we’re going to use our index to
Pluck five on the B string film to do 6th fret on the g string so that sounds like this then you’re gonna reach up to the 9th fret with your pinky and then use your first finger to play seventh fret on the a so so far one more time
Then the last move is a tricky one because it involves a pretty big stretch so coming out of this shape we’re gonna take our pinky and reach up to the tenth fret on the B string pluck with your middle finger use your first finger to do the ninth fret on the g string
And then our final move is that we’re gonna take our pinky and put it on the 11th fret of the D string and here it’s kind of helpful to lean your wrist in with it otherwise a lot of times look at this kind of choke thing if you don’t
Get far enough over so that move just that final move looks like this you can see that I kind of like cheat my wrists forward with that to make those all sound clearly so that last chord altogether and then resolve to an e start the song you’ll notice as I was
Describing this I was talking into open chord shapes but don’t forget that we’re tuned down a half step so do you play along with the original recording it’s actually an E flat other than that it’s pretty straightforward it’s just a matter of making sure that you’re really
Focusing on having your hand in the correct positions that you’re making each note sound clearly and that you really allow this pedal e to ring out throughout so the whole thing one more time There you go that’s your song by Elton John adapted for guitar so a good luck and let me know if you’ve any questions or anything else you want me to talk through see you next time

Insane what you do with your fingers
Sempre maravilhosa em suas aulas
Its a little bit funny, this feeling inside… im not one of those who can easily hide.
wow the american stars are teaching as well ! thank you very much! 🙂
Great lesson. The extra time spent playing through different sections at different tempos, the clear instruction and time spent to arrange and insert tab set this apart from other lessons. That and the killer sweater.
Toni, excellently describe
Step by step…
Finger by finger…
Thumb by thumb…
No look at how
Good I play…
No lightspeed…
It's my tea-break…
For this pupil
A Tea-break…
Only brings…
Heart-break..
Succinctly…
"Did you say…
Succinctly?"
You bet.
Best tutorials!
Imlove yopu Toni, you are the most intelligent and sensitive guitar player
Muito bom,e que boca mais linda 😍.
Thank you Toni!
Amazing young lady.
Great talent
Love your playing style and your lessons.. you make it seem so easy.. please don't stop..
Wow, GREAT LESSON TONI!!!🥰🙏🙏🙏. APPRECIATE you taking the Time to make this LESSON!!!🥰🎸🎸🎸
Hey there again Toni. 😀 A flying guitar??? What is that? Oh, and it is so nice that you bother to respond. Keep giving us great music.
Hi Toni, thanks so much for all you do. Maybe some time I would like you to teach the rain song please. Thanks
You're freakin cute !
Can you do a "Crazy on you" (Heart) lesson?
Hi Toni,
This is gorgeous! I would love a lesson with an arrangement of yours of the whole song, if that's something you want to do 😀
I love your videos, Toni. Many guitar players make this song simpler by placing capo on the first fret. I do. It's not perfect that way, but close enough for my home playing. P.S. Happy NewYear!
One of my favorite songs ever. Makes me pick up my guitar again and learn from your video. Thank you 🤗
love it,. toni lindgren,.
I thought I was gonna learn but yr too gud I just can't catch up
I learned this using a capo on the third fret, even though it can probably be played with it on the first fret, as well. Having said that, I do like this arrangement.
Talented and beautiful girl
Cool ! What about the rest of the song ?? Future maybe ?? Thank you very much *Toni !!
You have the absolute knack and feel for the guitar!
your tutorials are superb
You my young lady are a phenomenal artist and a great instructor. Keep it going. Thanks
super
I am real l’y fan of All you are doing booth of you !! Why don’t you try some John Prine famous songs (I remember everything, claye pigeons, etc…) thanks for your tutorials also !!
Antoine from…..south of…France.
Ok I give up, even before picking up my guitar!
Thanks Tony, from Catalunya.
Wonderful ! Looking forward for the rest of the song ! Thanks Toni !
I'm looking forward to more of these lessons. Thanks again.
Nice
Thanks for this beautiful tutorial.
I like more of it…
… but first I should practice.
Something about Elton John songs and guitars has always bedevilled me, and somehow this confirms everything I thought. It’s crazy hard!
Great video..
Any way u could sing some of it too…
Me encanta como tocas Toni. Thank you for sharing your beautiful talent!! C'est trop beau <3
Just discovered your channel thanks to a student of mine… we both love your playing!! Thanks so much!
with a little encouragement from the one person that matters to me I could practice cold shot as interpreted by Aarron Brunner. Your facebook Account may have been hacked Tori Lindgren many years ago. Can you acknowledge my messages and I'll show what two days practice does to the memory of a song I forgot to play.
Nice job and great song choice.
Toni – is this you as a little girl ? :
