A Little Bit of Country Easy Classic Country Songs for Guitarists

A Little Bit of Country Easy Classic Country Songs for Guitarists Sign up successful From the early days when he was writing hits like Crazy for Patsy Cline, to the 80s gypsy anthem On the Road Again, Nelson has inspired several generations of guitarists with his guitar Trigger, a 1969 Martin N-20 guitar. Nelson says that his favorite guitar player is Django Reinhardt. His simple chord progressions often flavor Django-like riffs, making his tunes perfect for someone learning guitar, but also great for more experienced musicians. So whether youre a beginner or an advanced guitarists, here are two Willie Nelson hits youll love to play. Crazy Written by Willie Nelson  Recorded by Patsy Cline Crazy has a good amount of chord changes over relatively simple chords. The song is slow enough that the chord changes are not too difficult, but once mastered, this is a very satisfying song to play. It starts on a G chord, then moves to an E chord, which is an extremely easy transition for a beginner guitarist. The E then moves to an Am chord, which is the same chord form, just moved to different strings. Next, move to D7. This simple pattern repeats for the rest of the verse, before moving to a basic C-G-D7 pattern for the chorus, with an A7 thrown in for good measure. So instead of including difficult jumps and chord movements, Nelson shows an economy of motion when he moves from one simple chord to another. Plus, the song includes simple chords that any beginner should know. G E7 Am Crazy Im crazy for feeling so lonely D7 G Im crazy crazy for feeling so blue E7 Am I know youd love me as long as you wanted D7 G And then someday youd leave me for somebody new C G Worry why do I let myself worry A7 D7 Wondering what in the world did I do G E7 Am Crazy for thinking that my love could hold you C D7 Am G Im crazy for trying crazy for crying Am D7 G And Im crazy for lov-ing you E7 Am Crazy Im crazy for feeling so lonely D7 G Im crazy crazy for feeling so blue E7 Am I know youd love me as long as you wanted D7 G And then someday youd leave me for somebody new C G Worry why do I let myself worry A7 D7 Wondering what in the world did I do G E7 Am Crazy for thinking that my love could hold you C D7 Am G Im crazy for trying crazy for crying Am D7 G And Im crazy for lov-ing you On the Road Again Written and Recorded by Willie Nelson This classic country song has a gospel-like chord progression. It moves from the beginning C chord to an E7, and just like many gospel songs, moves to a Dm chord before finishing with a standard cadence of F to G. The chorus is also interesting, as it revolves around the simple I IV V of C F and G, but Nelson uses the Dm and the E7 chords to flavor the chorus. This simple but catchy song is easy to learn, and satisfying to the beginning guitarist whos learning to branch out from the basics of I IV and V, and add a few more chords to their bag of tricks. What are some of your favorite classic country songs? Let us know in the comments below! C E7 On the road again just cant wait to get on the road again Dm The life I love is making music with my friends F G7 C And I cant wait to get on the road again C7 F C On the road again like a band of gypsies we go down highway F C Were the best of friends insisting that the world keep turning our way G7 C E7 And our way is on the road again just cant wait to get on the road again Dm The life I love is making music with my friends F G7 C And I cant wait to get on the road again C E7 On the road again goin places that Ive never been Dm Seein things that I may never see again F G7 C And I cant wait to get on the road again C7 F C On the road again like a band of gypsies we go down highway F C Were the best of friends insisting that the world keep turning our way G7 C E7 And our way is on the road again just cant wait to get on the road again Dm The life I love is making music with my friends F G7 C And I cant wait to get on the road again Give these songs a try and let us know what you think.

Essential French Vocabulary Greetings, Introductions, and More Social Phrases

Essential French Vocabulary Greetings, Introductions, and More Social Phrases Suzy S. Ready to say hello to the French-speaking world? Heading to a French-speaking country soon? Chances are youd love to get a head start on some useful French greetings and phrases. In this article, well cover the most important French phrases youll need for greetings, farewells, and introductions, in addition to a few others just for fun. But first check out this quick video tutorial for some helpful pronunciation tips! 1) Bonjour! Hello! This is probably the most universally recognized French greeting. It literally means “Good day!” It can be used in the morning or during the day. If its still the morning and you are tempted to say “good morning,” though, be careful. The literal translation of the English greeting is “bon matin,” but this phrase doesnt actually exist in French. Just say “bonjour.” 2) Bonsoir! Good evening! “Bon” means good and “soir” means evening. Pretty logical. Unlike anglicized attempts at good morning, this one works. Use it appropriately :). 3) Comment-allez vous? How are you? Allez technically is a form of the verb aller (to go), but doesnt translate that way in this situation. French has two levels of formality when speaking to one person. This is the more respectful version. (Note the use of “vous” instead of “tu.”) If you are speaking with a friend, you can also say, Comment vas-tu? 4) Je vais tres bien, merci. Im doing very well, thank you. It can be shortened to Tres bien, merci (Very well, thank you). 5) Je ne vais pas bien. / Je vais mal. / Comme ci comme ça. I am not doing well. / I am doing badly. / (Im doing) so-so. Probably you wont say this to a stranger or to a superior or colleague if youre trying to be polite. Around family members, friends, or the doctor, however, it may be in your interest and theirs to give an honest response. 6) Et vous? And you? How about you? You can use this after someone has asked you a question, youve (most likely) responded, and you want to ask them the same question. As in #3, this is the formal form. The informal version is, Et tu? 7) Comment vous appelez-vous? Whats your name? Appeler is a French verb meaning “to call,” so you are literally asking what they call themselves. Again, this is the more formal form. To speak to a peer, say, comment tappelles-tu? 8) Je mappelle _____________. My name is _____________. Use this to respond to #7, inserting your name in the space. 9) Au revoir! Until (we) see (each other) again! See you later! Au means “to the,” and in this context, until. Revoir means to see again. 10) A tout a lheure! See you (very) soon! Usually this is used when two peers, friends, or colleagues must part temporarily, but will see each other later the same day. 11) A demain! See you tomorrow! More literally: Until tomorrow! 12) A plus tard! See you later! More literally: Until later! This can be used if you will see the person again the same day, or also if you will see them again soon, but you arent sure exactly when. For instance, in may be that you see them once or several times a week, and so for the two of you, if you see them in a few days, its still considered to be relatively soon. 13) Adieu! Good-bye (forever)! Hopefully you will not have say this one too often. Sometimes it is used dramatically in movies or plays when someone is on their deathbed. 14) Jaime la France! I like / love France! Technically, adorer is a stronger “like” verb than aimer, which is safely translated to “like,” and sometimes translated to “love.” If you want to state more strongly how much you like France, say, Jadore la France! 15) Cest toute la faute du gouvernment! Its all the fault of the government! When I was in second year French, another French speaker who had studied abroad in France told me that French people tend to blame the government for many things that go wrong. (This sometimes has a ring of truth to it.) She went on to tell me that whenever I didnt know the answer, I could always use this phrase. So now I pass it on to you. If youre not sure, just blame it on the government! Sharpen your French conversation skills by studying with a private tutor. French tutors are available to work with you online via Skype or in-person depending on your location and availability. Search for your French tutor today!

What is it Like to Attend University of Denver

What is it Like to Attend University of Denver The tutors behind Varsity Tutors are not just here to teach theyre sharing their college experiences as well. Nadine is currently a sophomore at University of Denver majoring in Spanish and Communications. She specializes infirstgrade throughninthgrade Math tutoring, as well as English tutoringand Spanish tutoring. Check out what she had to say about University of Denver: VT: Describe the campus setting and transportation options.How urban or safe is the campus?Are there buses or do you need a car/bike? Nadine:The University of Denver campus is quite small, so transportation never seems to be an issue. I personally longboard around campus, and many of my friends bike, but you can get from one side of campus to the other with a 15-minute walk. Students are given free RTD passes, which enable us to use any form of city transportation (i.e. buses and the light rail), but it is honestly unnecessary unless you are living very far from campus. University of Denver is located on the outskirts of the city. It is a very safe campus, but a 15-minute light rail ride can take you right into the heart of Denver. VT: How available are the professors, academic advisers, and teaching assistants? Nadine:The professors and advisers I have had so far have been very available. If you email with a question, they will undoubtedly respond within 24 hours. If you are looking to meet during hours outside of their normal office hours, they are more than willing to work with you and to find a time that suits you both. VT: How would you describe the dorm life rooms, dining options, location, socialization opportunities with other students? Nadine:Although I currently live off-campus, I thoroughly enjoyed my dorm experience. I lived in a Living and Learning Community, which anyone is able to apply for, and that is where I met the majority of my friends here at University of Denver. Living in the dorms is a great way to socialize with new people, but there are also plenty of clubs and organizations that one can become involved withI have also made a large amount of friends through my club involvements. There are two main dining halls, which serve a variety of food, as well as a few other places to each at, such as Subway or the late-night pub. VT: Which majors/programs are best represented and supported?What did you study and why? Did the university do a good job supporting your particular area of study? Nadine:University of Denvers Daniels College of Business is by far the most represented and supported here; many students come here specifically to study Business. However, I am currently double-majoring in Spanish and Communications. I chose these two majors because I am genuinely interested in them, and I know that I will choose a more specific subject related to teaching when I get my Masters degree. Although the main focus is Business, University of Denver supports all majors, and it even has an opportunity where you can create your own. VT: How easy or difficult was it for you to meet people and make friends as a freshman? Does Greek life play a significant role in the campus social life? Nadine:Because I was very involved in clubs, club sports, and my Living and Learning Community, it was very easy to meet new people and make new friends. I would say that as long as you are willing to put in the effort to try new things, you will be successful in finding compatible friends. About 20% of students at University of Denver are involved in Greek life. I have many friends who enjoy it, but I personally decided not to be a part of it, and I have never felt my social life has suffered because of that choice. VT: How helpful is the Career Centerand other student support services?Do many reputable companies recruit on campus? Nadine:Although I have limited experience with the Career Center, the few times that I have visited were very helpful. The counselor I met with provided me with advice on applying to certain internships, and she goes out of her way to inform me of company opportunities that I may be interested in. VT: How are the various study areas such aslibraries, the student union, and dorm lounges? Are they over-crowded, easily available, spacious? Nadine:I spend a lot of time in our library, which was built about two years ago. The library is beautiful and very spacious. There are multiple floors with varying silence levels. During midterms and finals, the library becomes much more crowded than usual, but there is never a problem finding a quiet place to study and get work done. VT: Describe the surrounding town. What kinds of outside establishments / things to do are there that make it fun, boring, or somewhere in between?To what extent do students go to the downtown area of the city versus staying near campus? Nadine:We are very fortunate to have Denver very close to our campus. It is a very unique and spacious city with a lot of opportunities. Some choose to go downtown for various reasons, but there are many choices around the general campus in terms of restaurants, bars, etc. If there is something you are looking for that is not near University of Denver, I am sure you will be able to find it with a quick ride on the light rail. VT: How big or small is the student body? Were you generally pleased or displeased with the typical class sizes? Nadine:The undergraduate population at University of Denver is around 5,500, which I believe is the perfect size. It is small enough where you are always running into someone you know, but also large enough where you are always meeting new people too. I have been very pleased with my class sizes so far. My largest class, which was a general science class, had about 60 students, and my smallest class had about 8. This year, my largest class has been about 25 students. I am very happy with the class sizes here. It was a large factor in picking University of Denver for my undergraduate education. VT: Describe one memorable experience with a professor and/or class. Perhaps one you loved the most or one youregretthe most. Nadine:For my Freshman Seminar Class, I took a course called Revolutions and Revolutionaries in Latin America, which I very much enjoyed. The professor was absolutely wonderful, and I learned a tremendous amount. One day in the spring, I was with a friend throwing a Frisbee around before our biology class, and my professor and his friend saw us and joined in. We played for about 15 minutes together, discussing random current events and joking around. I do not believe that at many schools I could have a close connection with a professor like this. I believe that the professors genuinely enjoy what they teach here, and it makes it much more enjoyable to be a student when the professor is passionate about what he or she is here for.
