_ [Bb] Hey, _ _ _ [N] what's up out there you guys?
Marty Schwartz here, GuitarJams.com.
Stoked to bring you another lesson, free lesson here.
I have a bunch of extra blues lessons, blues licks.
You can click the link below this box to check those out.
I always appreciate it, but let's get to it.
Chords real quick.
The chords to [Bb] this intro are Bb to [F] F major, _ to Eb [Eb] major, back to [Bb] Bb major.
_ _ Starts over again.
Bb [F] major, F major, _ _ G [Gm] minor.
That's the third fret there.
Up a [Ab] half step, added the middle finger. _ _
So [Abm] that'd be Ab major, [Bb] back up to Bb. _
So it's a perfect example of using the major pentatonic, which would be the Bb major [B] pentatonic,
which is right there.
The root is on the sixth fret [Gm] of the high E, or the sixth fret of the low E, or the
third fret of the G.
So check it out.
We're going to go. _
_ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ [Gm] _ _
_ _ _ [G] So we got the fifth to the third of [Bb] the G.
_ [G] _ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _
And then a whole step bend.
[Gm] _ _ _ _ _
And then the note relaxes.
[G] _ [Bb] _ _ [Bm] _
_ _ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _ [B] _
_ [C] Okay, then it bends up [Cm] again, and then we got to get our pinky to the sixth fret of the B.
_ _ [C] _ _ And then that ring finger comes back [D] down.
So _ [C] _ _ [A] everything so [Bb] far.
_ [G] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ [Am] _ Starts the same way [Bb] again.
_ [C] But then it's on the G string.
[Em] So you got five on the D, three on the G, to five [Bb] on the G.
_ [C] _
_ [C] _ _ _ [G] _ [Bb] _ So three, five.
Then a bend without picking.
[Fm] _ Brought down.
So you got the fifth [E] fret on the G.
_ [Dm] Already bent.
Picked.
[C] Brought down to [Bb] that.
_ _ _ [B] _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ And we're going to [G] hit that, which is the root.
We're going to hit that twice.
Everything from the top. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ [C] _ [Bb] _ _ _
_ _ Nice little turnaround [G] lick right here.
Five on the D.
And then [Db] four, five on the A.
To [Bb] the root, which is going to be the three of the G.
_ _ [B] Check it out.
_ [Gm] _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ [Bb] _ [D] _ _ [Bb] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [B] Now we go up an octave.
[Gm] _ _
_ [D] Or, actually, even easier.
_ [B] So we'll slide to the twelfth fret on the G string.
Really just from the 11.
Use your middle finger.
[Bbm] _
_ _ _ _ [G] _ Back.
[B] Thirteenth fret on the B.
Bend.
It's just the same lick, but an octave higher.
[G] _
_ _ [B] Then bend it up.
Pinky's going to go on the 13 [C] of the high E.
_ [Cm] _ _ [G] _ [D] _ _ _
_ [Cm] _ _ [A] _ Alright, then, [Gm] finally.
_ And we're going between the 12 on the G and the 11 on the B. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Bb] Then we're going to bend the 13 on [Bm] the high E.
_ [E] _ _ [Db] _ _ _ _ [Bbm] _
_ _ [G] _ _ [Ab] _ _ [Bm] So you're trying to bend it up a whole step and a half step.
[Eb] Then it goes natural.
[B] 13, 11.
_ [Bbm] _ _ 14, 11.
So this is a really cool little opening.
It mixes the major and the minor pentatonic.
This last little piece _ _ is a really cool opening.
It's the minor pentatonic, whereas all the other [G] parts are the major.
Let's go over the whole thing.
Real slow.
_ [Bb] _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Bb] _ [Cm] _ _ [Bb] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [B] _
_ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ [E] _
_ _ _ [Bbm] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [B] [C] Alright, I hope you dug the licks.
We'll see you in another lesson real soon.
Take care. _ _ _ _ _
