First part of the video is the tutorial. I first show the chords. We will use: Am7, Am, C, D6, G, Em, & D. Most of these chords are fairly common and none of them are difficult to play. There are two ways to play G, Em, and D. I demonstrate how to play with videos.
Then I explain the strumming. There are only two strum patterns to be used. The whole song (except RIFF) are played by combination of these patterns. But there are rules of how to use these patterns. I show them in detail. Then I explain how to play the RIFF part.
Throughout the tutorial, playing techniques are demonstrated in detail with videos and animated diagrams, so it is easy to follow.

Once you understand how to do it, the song is fairly easy to play.

Second part of the video is the song cover. The song cover accompanies with LYRICS and CHORD diagrams in timely manner so it can be used as PLAY ALONG. I also arranged the interlude solo part for ukulele. I regard them as optional and just show the TABs in the play along.

As I'm not a good singer, my singing voice is processed with software. I appreciate your understanding.

The song was written by Yusuf / Cat Stevens and released in 1970 in his album "Tea for the Tillerman."
