A tutorial on my acoustic cover of Iron Maiden's, Wasted Years (Ian Zumback's version) seen here: https://youtu.be/OapQQ0qY4_c?si=e1cJdWSTAVJApUHe

Ian's original cover here: https://youtu.be/-ilDIAmsJho?si=02NyGzOJPnhNCjOK

I first came across Ian's cover in the Fall of 2023, while going through some tough days. His take on this classic Maiden song touched my heart on a deep level, and inspired me to try my hand at it myself.  After posting the song, I've have several people comment, asking for a tutorial on how I tried to play the cover. This is my first attempt at a guitar tutorial, and I'm sure has much room for improvement going forward. :-)
