You could try!. Most don't make it though!. Most learn to play a few songs!. If to be able to play a few songs and force to use others tabs is what you desire, then fine
But if you really want to learn the guitar and understand it then you need more then a you tube video!. You need lessons from a experienced player!. If you want to understand how scales and chords work and be able to play them in any location you want , you need a teacher
I suggest you get lessons from a teacher!. They are not that expensive!. You wil learn twice as fast and be a much better player!. Instead of being told to put finger here and put finger there, that is a c chord!. You will learn how chords are created and be able to make them any where on the neck you might need to make them!. By getting lessons from a teacher , you can ask questions and have them answered, a teacher will notice things that need corrected and get them early before they become a problem for you!.
The problem with most is, they just want to learn to play songs and most teachers want to focus on music theory, technique, and timing!. The end result is by learning these things you can play most any song you wish to play and the other way, you can play "A" songWww@QuestionHome@Com

ok so i taught myself guitar!. my bro left his guitar at home and i tried it out!. first look at what song you want to play and search whatever song u wanna play and put tab at the end!. then each fret (seperated by the metal lines) is a number!. it counts down from the top!. (1-23 or 24) typically!. then its pretty simple other then that!.
the strings: the first E is the lowesr string and the highest pitch!. and there will be numbers on there and u play the number on that string!. get it!? if u need anymore help, jbadley101@yahoo!.com
