[F] [Ab] Hey, [G] what's up you guys?
Marty Schwartz here from [A] GuitarJams.com.
[Abm] Hope you guys are doing great.
[Eb] I'm having a good time, [D] ready to teach you another classic, [E] [Ab] classic riffage right here.
[F] Also you can try my website, [C] GuitarJams [E].com.
You can actually try it for two weeks for free with the link right down there.
[Abm] So check it out.
I really [Bm] appreciate it.
[E] And then all the [Ab] social media stuff, I got [D] links down there for it too.
But let's zoom in.
I'm going to show you this right now and you're going to have a ton of fun.
[C] The ultimate [Ab] trick of it is really the tuning, [E] which you can call it Open [Gb] G tuning.
But we're going to zoom in.
I'll show you how to get into that tuning and then we'll play [E] the riff.
All right, here we go.
So for this riff, we're actually not even going to play this string up here.
[Eb] But to just complete the concept of Open G tuning, we're going to tune [E] this [D] down to a
D, which would be an octave lower [B] than this [D] D string right here.
[E]
[Eb] [D] So those match up.
[E] Now this G string [G] right here is going to match up to this low A.
So we want to lower the
A string [D] down a whole [B] step to G.
[D] So right now we have this in D and then this [A] is going to go down a whole step to match
an octave lower [C] than this G string [D] right here.
[A]
[G]
So then we're left with a [D] D, a G, [G]
[Ab] a D again, [D] [E] a G again, [G] [D] the normal B, [Bm] [G]
[D] and now the high
E we just want to lower to D as [Em] well.
[D]
[G]
And that's Open G.
Now it may take a little [C] refining, but it's pretty close.
[Bb]
[C]
So [D] D, [G] G, D, [Em]
G, B, [D] [Db] D.
Okay, because of this [Bb] tuning, [E] the chords all kind of change [Gb] how [C] you play them because [B] now
the guitar is in a [Db] weird tuning.
[Em] One [B] thing that's cool about it [D] though is that you can just play a flat [C] finger starting,
like I said, we're going to skip this string [D] altogether.
So if we're on [F] the fifth fret, [Bb] press everything [C] down and you get that, which is actually a
C major chord, if I'm not mistaken.
But [E] when we go like [C] this,
[F] I added my middle finger to the sixth fret there and my ring
[E] finger to the seventh fret of the D string [C] there.
[F] So I'm barring [Ab] that and then [Eb] hammering [Ab] this down.
And it's actually [Bb] an F chord.
[C]
So [B] check it out.
I'm going to open.
This [Gbm] is pressed the whole [C] time and I go [F]
[C] just like that.
So we've got,
[F]
[Eb] so from there I'm going, so I'm going.
[F] [E]
[D] [Bm]
[Gbm] [D]
[C]
[F] [C]
[F]
[Bb]
So because [E] of the tuning, you can do a blues boogie without having to stretch your hand
out, [C] which is convenient.
So we're covering the third fret of [B] that, what used to be the A and [Bbm] D right there.
[Bb]
[Fm] And I'm just strumming those two and I'm going up a whole step [Db] with my ring finger
to the fifth fret [Bb] of that D string.
[C]
[Bb]
[C]
[Bb]
[F] So the other section, [Cm] C, because that's what we're thinking of this as [B] now, [D] covering that
fifth fret of the A and the D [C] there.
[F] And we can just scoot it [Bb] up for ease, scoot it [Eb] up to the tenth fret.
[E] And now [Eb] that's an [F] F.
So just that one up to that one.
[D] And then you can add that [C] boogie.
[F]
[C] [F]
[C]
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da.
So
[Bb]
[C]
[Bb]
[C] [Gb]
you put some of those things together and [C] you've got a [D] lot of fun.
Fun for [Eb] hours or [Gb] days or years or your whole life.
[D] Whatever, I'm not sure,
[Gm] but hope it was fun.
[Gbm]
[B] [E] All right, thanks for hanging out.
[Bb] You can try my [Gb] website down there in that [E] link right below this box.
[Gb] Thanks for hanging [B] out and I [Bb] hope to hear from you [Gb] on Facebook or Twitter or anything like that.
And [Eb] I'll be doing [G] another video real soon.
See you later.
[Bb]

[F] [Ab] Hey, [G] what's up you guys?

[D] and now the high

[D]
[G]
And that's Open G.
Now it may take a little [C] refining, but it's pretty close.
[Bb]
[C]
So [D] D, [G] G, D, [Em]
G, B, [D] [Db] D.
Okay, because of this [Bb] tuning, [E] the chords all kind of change [Gb] how [C] you play them because [B] now

But [E] when we go like [C] this,

[F] So I'm barring [Ab] that and then [Eb] hammering [Ab] this down.
And it's actually [Bb] an F chord.
[C]
So [B] check it out.
I'm going to open.
This [Gbm] is pressed the whole [C] time and I go [F]
[C] just like that.
So we've got,
[F]
[Eb] so from there I'm going, so I'm going.
[F] [E]
[D] [Bm]
[Gbm] [D]

[E] And now [Eb] that's an [F] F.
So just that one up to that one.
