Beautiful song. You've got a nice voice as well. Thanks for sharing. 👍

Dude that is beautiful!

What a great lesson of such a beautiful tune! Thanks for sharing it.

Beautiful, Bob. Thank you.

You have phenomenal material, and I especially like the Billy Dean songs. Thank you!

lovely...thanks so much...simple and beautiful....i already made a girl cry!

Very nice! You even sound like him.... I learned this yesterday and want to thank you. I would love to hear you play and sing the whole song on you tube. Thanks again.

Thanks for sharing. You've got a very nice voice. ☺👍

Yep - that’s a Cmaj7 open chord. They may not be calling it that anymore; don’t know, don’t care. It sounds the same as the bar chord at the 3rd fret (3-3-5-4-5-3). That barred configuration is used prolifically by Jazz artists and it is a staple in many Latin music genres, as well. I first learned it was when I was 18 back in 1972, listening to and trying to figure out some of the chord progressions in songs by Seals & Croft and the band America. No You Tube videos back then. It works real well for each note and half step on your way up the fretboard, too.

This sounds great I only wish I knew what you were picking with your right hand! The chords i get but the picking pattern would be helpful.

@GibsonDove75 Thanks for watching! Nope, it's an Everett Celona, made by Kent Everett out of Atlanta.

I agree!

@Jim2803 thanks. I haven't seen much on youtube with either covers or instructional vids on Billy Dean, so I thought I'd help out there. Plus I had a request.

Great job! Thanks!!! And, I second the vote that you perform the whole song without interruption... pretty please....?!!! ;)

Very nice. I am curious about the right hand strum pattern you are doing on the last portion of the opening (g with a hammer on). What are you doing on the right hand? Any advise on this? Thanks for this,

I'm actually just finger picking...no strum. Pluck 2,3,6 at the same time then pick 4,3,and hammer on string 2, then 1 and back to 2,3,6 at the same time.

can you make a cover of a full song please!! :D

Who’s Billy Dean? I thought this was Randy Travis..
