_ [E] _ _ Hey guys, welcome back today.
So this is part two of our traditional gospel guitar.
So we're doing [G] things like congregational songs.
So you might hear [D#] something like glory, glory, hallelujah, or bless that wonderful name of Jesus.
So if you get a little lost in some of the breakdown, please reference the last two videos.
You'll see a link below.
Okay, so let's start with [E] the one chord.
So on the one chord, we're pretty much just hovering over that riff.
_ [Am] _ _ _ [Cm] _
_ [G] _ _ _ [C] So it's just a little trot right there on that C.
_ And so we're just playing that C pentatonic. _
_ [E] _ _ _ [A] _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ [G] _ [C] I'll put it in a time.
_ _ _ _ [Cm] _ _ [Em] _ _
_ [F#] Or you know, you can just change that up as you feel.
[N] There's tons of variations of this riff.
You can also do a half step to the three [E] to make it [N] bluesier.
So here's the original.
[C] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Here's the bluesy version.
[Cm] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [E] Alright, _ so once we [C] leave the one, so bless that wonderful name of Jesus, we'll go to the four.
[F] _
So I'm not playing that root note.
I'm not playing that F. _
So F, then we're going to go to F sharp [C] diminished. _
And so that diminished chord is movable, so you can move it in minor thirds.
So _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[D#] let's start it over.
_ [G] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [E] _ _ [G#m] Alright, so that's [C] C9.
_ _ [G#m] _ [C] _
But [F#] we're going to play it right here.
_ [C] So I'm skipping now on [E] that root note.
And I'm pretty much [Gm] just playing those three strings.
_ _ _ Then [F] we go to the four. _
_ [F#] Diminished.
Back to one.
[C] _ _
_ Five.
_ [F] _ [F] Or. _
So that's an F with a [G] G in the bass and on top. _
_ _ [C] _ _ Bless that wonderful name. _
_ [A] _ _ _ [C#] _ _ [D] _ [C#] _
Alright, so [G#] we're taking this just like we did in the last traditional video.
We're walking down from [C] the C7 to [A] _ the A7.
[D] But we're just going to use the top four strings.
_ _ [A] _ _ _
[B] Then we're going to turn around.
_ [A] _ _ [F#] _ _
[C] So we're doing.
That's a C with the G in the bass.
_ [Am] _ A minor.
[G] _ _ [C] _
A D9.
_ _ _ _ [F] _
Four.
[G] _ _ [F] _ _ _ [C] _ [E] _
So back to the one.
[C] _ And here's the turnaround.
[F] _ _
[E] _ [C] _ Back to the [N] five.
So that turnaround is.
There's a couple ways you can do it.
What I do in the intro is.
[C] _
That's C.
So that's the [E] first inversion.
So you have the three in the bass.
[C] So that's E. _
_ _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _
[C] _ _ So C with the E in the bass.
[C] _
With the F in the bass.
[B] _ B.
[C] C with the five in the bass.
Or G.
_ _ [G] _ _
_ _ [C] _ If you want to do it in the higher register. _
_ _ [F] C.
F.
_ [Am] _
_ [C] Diminish.
And move that up a half step. _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
That's the whole song. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ [D] _ [Am] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Gm] _ _
[F] _ [F#] _ _ _ [C] _ _ [A] _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [C] _ _ [F#] _ [G] _
_ [Am] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ [F#] _ _ [C] _ [F] _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ [Am] _ _ [C] _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Em] _ _ _ [F] _ _
