It's time for another lesson video! In this video, I'm excited to bring you another lesson from a song I play with the Gilbert Family entitled "I'm Leaving My Troubles." This is a VERY ADVANCED lesson, even though it is only the intro to the song. (You have been warned!)

This is one of my favorite songs to play because I get to fly around on the guitar in a flurry of notes in the key of D, which I find is one of the Bluesiest keys to play in because of the way the notes are arranged on the guitar.

I hope to come back and do a lesson on the actual solo soon, which is similar but definitely different from the intro, so stay tuned for that.

If you're looking for some great new licks that aren't the norm to add to your repertoire, in a key other than the (debatably) overused key of G, then this is the lesson video for you!

So sit back, relax, and enjoy the show. Here's hoping you learn something new that will help you along your journey toward guitar greatness!
