Bright Eyes – First Day Of My Life

September 18th, 2009 by Kieran

Welcome to my tutorial for how to play first day of my life by Bright eyes. This song was a beautiful single released on March 21st 2005 and reached the number 37 on the Uk singles chart. Not exactly a high climber but for an acoustic song of beauty that is at least a decent amount of recognition and the song does deserve to be respected as a classic.
I have here my cover, my video tutorial, the original Bright eyes version and below are my tabbed out chords to play along with with each chords explained in Tab. Hope you enjoy. Feel free to leave comments and suggestions for which song you would like me to do next.

Here is my cover

Damien Rice The Animals Were Gone

August 27th, 2009 by Kieran

Welcome to my first real post here at Guy With A Guitar. I Have chosen to cover the beautiful acoustic song ‘The Animals Were Gone by Damien Rice’ and to show how simple it is to play it.

Damien Rice is one of my favorite composers, the Irish Singer/songwriter wrote this song back in 2006 but the simplicity and strange beauty really make it a song that stands out and strums at the heart strings of oh so many acoustic fans out there.

First of all here is my own little acoustic cover

And here is how to play it.

Thanks for reading remember to subscribe
