Chords for Beast Of Burden (Rolling Stones - Lesson)

_ _ _ _ We will show you the Rolling Stones Beast [C#] of Burden.
What we're going to do first, [C] the basic chords we're playing [B] will be B, _ [E] E, _ [A] A. _
We're going to throw in a [C#] suspended chord off [E] of that [A] E. _ _
_ Okay.
_ [E] Normal tuning. _
[G] So, here we go.
[C] I'm going to start out, rather than play the full [B] B6, _ I'm going to play just part of it, called the triad.
It's the B string, the G [Cm] string, and [B] the D string.
And I'm going [C] to play it first and then I'll show you the song.
Alright? _
[E] _ _ _ _ [C#] _ [F#m] _ _ [E] _
_ _ [C#m] _ _ _ [F#m] _ _ [E] _
_ [B] _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
_ [C#] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
Chorus.
_ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ [B] _
_ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ _ [A#] I'm doing the B _ triad with the D, the G, and the B string.
[A] And I'm hammering [C#] on to the E at the 9th [B] fret.
So we're [E] going_
_ _ [D#] Back to the B.
And [C#] then I come down to part of the suspended.
[G#] Okay?
So if I take the E [D#] here and add this, that would be the suspended [A] _ [C] on the B and the [A] D string.
[E] But I'm only playing part of it.
It's a double stop.
I'm not [C] playing the full chord.
I'm playing the D [A#] and the G [A] string.
_ _ [C#] _ _ _ [B] _ _ [E] _
_ _ [A] _ [D#m] See, I don't hit the B.
It would ring [C#m] out too much.
[D#] It doesn't sound right.
So I'm [A#] just playing the B_
I'm sorry, the D and the G string.
[C#m] _ Then I hammer [G#] on from [D#]
9 on the D string to 11.
[C#] _ _ [A]
Then I hit the 10 [F#] on the B string.
[C#] So that forms that suspended.
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _
Chorus.
What we're doing here is we're going from A [E] and sliding into E. _
[A] _ _ [A#] I'll play [A] that part. _ _ _
_ [E] _ Back [A] _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ [B] to B. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[D#] Okay, I'm trying to stick with what I think Keith Richards does, [F#m] which is simplicity.
[Em] You can play the full A.
[A] _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ [B] _ _ _
[A] But I think it sounds too full.
I think he likes to stick with [F#] the simple stuff and kind of jam it out.
So [A#] _ when you do [Em] the B, what I'm doing is hammering on [D#m] and pulling off on [C#] the G string here.
[B] _
_ _ _ _ _ So what we have so [A] far is_
_ _ [E] _ _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ [B] _
_ _ Then we're back into [E] it. _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ [Em] And that's the whole song.
There is a little [G] lead break.
It's pretty simple.
A little bit I know of the lead guitar break.
I haven't really studied it a whole lot.
I just know there's a part there where he's playing, starting out on [C] the 9th fret.
[C#] And I'll play it for you and show it to you.
_ _ _ [A#] _ _ _ [D#m] _
_ [F#m] _ _ [C#] _ _ [N] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Cm] _ _ _ [C#] _
_ _ _ _ _ [D#m] _ _ _
_ [F#] _ _ _ [N] So what I'm doing here is I'm hitting each note.
[F#] We're going on the A string.
9 [G#]-11.
9-11 [C#] on the D.
9-11 on the 12.
_ [D#]
12 on [G#m] the B.
9 [Cm]-12 and stretch it up on [D#] the 11.
_ [E] Then C.
Just hit it and bring it [C#] back _ down to the 9.
_ _ [G] Then we strike up the 12 and [Cm] stretch on the B.
[C] And then 12 on the [D#] G.
I'm sorry, 11 on the G and strike up.
Push up.
[G#] _ _ [F#] _
_ _ [C#] _ [Cm] So what we [C#] got so far_
_ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ [F#] _
_ _ [C#] _ _ [F#m] _ [C#] _ [D#] And then he just kind of_
he's [C] playing notes in between there.
I think it's kind of [D] fun just to mess around with [Em] it.
But that's the part you really [G#] hear, I think.
_ _ [D#] _ _
[G#] _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _ _
[D#] So I hope you guys enjoyed that.
[E] _ _ [A] A _ [F#m] little more Stones on the [C#] Telly.
Thanks guys.
Enjoy.
