Anyone can play guitar, but it takes true skill to rock out on air guitar, as Bradley Cooper proved.

The American Sniper star appeared as a guest on Monday's Tonight Show, where he demonstrated that he is still able to pantomime playing the guitar solo from Neil Young's "Down by the River," which he taught himself to do as a kid.

"It's so meaningless," Cooper admitted with a laugh about having memorized the number on air guitar.

He then put on quite a show throughout the lengthy solo, even making his way into the audience at one point.
