I've been playing for a almost a week now and I keep going back and forth with your videos because I always get stuck on some chords I can't play/change quicker, and this has been the easiest so far haha. Thank uuu!

I’m so happy you did this song! BTW, I am absolutely loving your TS tutorials. You are a great teacher! Please keep the series going 😊

I really do love Taylor swift also.. and the folklore is one of her best album...

I was about the look up chords for August as I take a break from Midnights, but I thought "Nina probably has a tutorial" AND SHE DOES from 2 years ago THANK YOOOOOOU ~

OMG How does this sound exactly like the studio session? It's just perfect Nena. You are a genius!

I love how you give your tabs for free it's so thoughtful of you. ♥️Super easy love this tutorial

i’m so happy you did august omg!! definitely gonna go learn this right now 🤍

This song is the very first song I ever learned to play on the guitar Thank you so much!

You've made this so easy and accessible. Thank you!

learning august on the guitar on the last day of July because i'm making this song my whole personality starting tomorow

Salt air, and the rust on your door I never needed anything more Whispers of "Are you sure?" "Never have I ever before" But I can see us lost in the memory August slipped away into a moment in time 'Cause it was never mine And I can see us twisted in bedsheets August sipped away like a bottle of wine 'Cause you were never mine Your back beneath the sun Wishin' I could write my name on it Will you call when you're back at school? I remember thinkin' I had you But I can see us lost in the memory August slipped away into a moment in time 'Cause it was never mine And I can see us twisted in bedsheets August sipped away like a bottle of wine 'Cause you were never mine Back when we were still changin' for the better Wanting was enough For me, it was enough To live for the hope of it all Cancel plans just in case you'd call And say, "Meet me behind the mall" So much for summer love and saying "us" 'Cause you weren't mine to lose You weren't mine to lose, no But I can see us lost in the memory August slipped away into a moment in time 'Cause it was never mine And I can see us twisted in bedsheets August sipped away like a bottle of wine 'Cause you were never mine 'Cause you were never mine, never mine But do you remember? Remember when I pulled up and said, "Get in the car" And then canceled my plans just in case you'd call? Back when I was livin' for the hope of it all, for the hope of it all "Meet me behind the mall" Remember when I pulled up and said, "Get in the car" And then canceled my plans just in case you'd call? Back when I was livin' for the hope of it all (for the hope of it all) For the hope of it all For the hope of it all (For the hope of it all) (For the hope of it all)

august and betty are totally not my favorite songs on folklore because the fact that 8/14 is my birthday- i genuinely like the songs lol

this was so easy to learn! what model is you guitar and where is it from?

Just got my first guitar and I'm trying to learn this song, my best friend helped me with the strings, I think I'm doing the chords right but when I do the DD UU DD it doesn't sound the same 😭

can we just take time to appreciate that she posted this in august? like rlly! @NenaShelby did u mean to do that?

Can u do a play along for august please🥺

Hi! Do you have to tune your guitar once you put a capo on? Because i’ve heard you do but when i try i can get it in tune,,do you have any tips?

if i had a voice like yours i would never shut up

Can you do illicit affairs by Taylor Swift pleaseeeeeeeeee

Hi, Nena...

Can I check the chords for the bridge, chorus 3 and outro please anyone

3:03 it’s actually G6

Can someone please tell me the chord progression lf the bridge? It gets cut in the "so much for summer love"

The strumming pattern is confusing me 😭😭😭 I did the DD UU DD but it sounded so wrong. Heeellpppp 😭😭😭 I am SSUUPPPEERRR DUPPPEERRR FRUSTRATED that I can't get it right.

I swear I thought you were gonna say " Hello freak bitches" in the intro, I've been watching to many Joe Rogan podcasts 😅 Awesome tutorial by the way! It was easy to follow and well instructed. August is in my Top 3 favorite tracks on Folklore

Is that a Dead and Company shirt you have on?

I can use the púa, I can make that sound fine JAJAJA and my guitar sound weird so

I'm trying so hard I just can't get the strumming right

It's august 1 2022 it's my birthday 🎉

would we require a whole different set of chords to sing the entire song one key higher?

hi!! do I need to play it with a capo,???? bc i dont have one 😭 thanks for the videooo

0:54

I think DDUUDU is ok too

Hey can u pls tell me a very very beginner tay song
