Tennessee Whiskey by Chris Stapleton.
I'm going to teach this as a [Bm] two chord song and we have [B] an option to use either a bar chord as one of the chords or we can use a capo which will eradicate the bar chords but still mean that you can play along to the original recording.
Now the two chords [A] that make this song regardless of the capo are the A major and the B [Bm] minor.
When [B] I play those two chords I would use the first [A] finger as a bar playing strings 2, 3 and 4 only but trying to keep string 1 [G] ringing out by kinking that first finger like this.
It just requires a little press down and a little kink and all five strings can ring out great [A#] and then we move to the B minor [Bm] bar chord and if anything therefore that B minor bar chord just varies it [A] a little bit so that they're [Bm] both nice and easy to play.
If [N] that is something that's not at your level yet it's totally fine we can use a capo at the second fret so the capo is barring those strings for us and we're going to play just [A] a normal G major to an A minor [Bm] chord and those are the only two chords you would need to know to play this [A] song.
[Bm]
[A] And a good thing to know [B] therefore is the [A] G major with a capo [G#] at the second fret [Gm] has moved that G major two frets higher up the guitar neck so two notes higher in the notes we have available so we've gone from G, first fret would be G sharp, second fret is an A, the G chord sounds [A] like an A and the B minor has moved up [Bm] two frets as well so that sounds like a B minor.
And if you look at that, that would be our B minor but we don't need to use that first finger and we can play it like this.
Whichever [B] version you're going for [G] the rhythm's really crucial in this song so I'm going to keep my capo here just to demo but you can play whichever version you prefer, you can take the capo off and use just [Fm] the A major chord and the B minor if you wish.
But whichever version we have a strumming pattern where every beat is divided into three measures which we would [A]
count one and a two and a three [N] and a four.
