I think my favorite line from the song is from the bridge- "he has cheated Hell and seated us above the fall". How we SO deserve the fall, but God's love and mercy, and Jesus' sacrifice have allowed us life and liberty. Hallelujah.
I love you dude, but that was less a tutorial of how to play the song and more of "here's the first chord and now I'm going to play the song" Just saying, if the point of the video is to help less advanced players learn the song who can't figure it out in their own why not actually show them all the chords they need to play.
Love the album. You inspire me to write more honestly. But maybe it might be more useful execute the "how to" videos a bit more fully to help the beginners out there. Thanks
I agree with Joshua...I'm chuckling to myself because I watched the video thinking "oh wow, he explains how to play the song". Then by the end of it I was thinking "but...not really!" It's such a great song and I just love your heart and vision, but...maybe not so much the tutorial of how to play the song. :)
Combine this video and these chords and you will be playing in no time! Thank John for the inspiration you are. Come play in Kauai, you have quite a following out here.
Could anyone possibly share the basic electric slide part? We're going to play this at our church in a week and I'd love to have a head start on that beautiful slide part.
hey i love the song, i would really like to know what the first verse means though, "Though the earth cried out for blood, satisfied her hunger was, billows calmed on raging seas for the souls of men she craved" thanks!
Thanks for keeping it real.

ReplyDeletethanks!
If this helps anyone, I'm fairly certain the chord progression through virtually the entire song is
ReplyDeleteD A B G
Now there could be some minors or different shapes, etc. but I'm just a humble bass player and don't know much about chords.
