[Em] _ _ _ _ _ [Am] Wisteria, _ _ did you change your face again?
_ Those of us who loved you when, _ can't even [Bm] _ find.
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ Hey
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Em] _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ _
_ [Gm] _ everybody, this is Bob with Acoustic Songs again.
And this lesson is going to be on Wisteria by Dan Fogelberg.
_ _ _ Kind of a finger picker's delight song here. _ _
_ _ It's not a really great song if you're a strummer, but the chords are kind of cool.
So you [Ab] could possibly use these chords [N] either somewhere else in original tunes or _ whatever.
They're nice chords to know. _ _
It starts off in what I call an A chord [Em] on the 5th.
_ [Am] _ _ _ _
Now keep in mind, [Em] again I've said this on many of my videos, I use two fingers for an A.
So it [Ab] doesn't look like I'm playing an A, but I'm covering three [Am] _ strings _ with two fingers.
I do that, [N] number one, because I have fat fingers, but also it allows me to free [Ab] up my_
Anytime you can free up a finger on a chord, it's kind of cool because you can use [G] that finger elsewhere on the fretboard. _ _ _
So it's helped me a lot in playing throughout the years to use two [C] fingers for an A or [A] one finger [Em] for an E minor. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ If _ _ _ _ _ _ I don't have to use two fingers, now I've got this index finger _ _ to [Bb] place elsewhere [N] and kind of do funny things with.
So getting _ back to the [Am] Wisteria, _ A chord on the 5th fret.
_ _ [Dbm] Next chord [A] _ _ is_ _ _
I don't [E] think it has a name, so I'm just going to number it.
It's open, _ [A] open, _ 4, _ _ _ _ [C] 5, _ _ open, [B] _ _ _ _
[Em] _ _ _ 4, _ _ [Am] _
_ _ [Em] 5, open. _ _ _ _
[Am] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [A] _ [Am] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Third chord, third different chord I should say, _ _ _ _ _ _ [Bm] is _ another strange chord.
_ _ _ And number [E]-wise it's going to be open, _ 2, _ _ [D] open, _ _ 2, _ _ 3, _ _ open, [E] _ _ _ open, [D] 2, open, 2, 3, [E] open. _ _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Bm] _ _ _ I take [D] that chord, I release my index finger, _ and bring it to the 2nd fret of the high E string. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Ab] And [Bm] _ the [D] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Am] 4th chord _ _ [E] _ _ [D] _
is_
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Gm] Again, number-wise, I don't think this chord has a name either.
[Em] It's [Ab] open, although I kind of mute [E] that string, but let's just say open, [C] 3, _ [D] open, [G] open, _
[D] 3, _ _ 2. _ _
[E] Open, [C] [D] 3, open, open, 3, 2.
_ _ _ _ The [G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ [Am] _ beginning. _ _ _
_ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ [D] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Am] _ [Em] _ _ _ _
[Am] _ [A] _ [Am] Wisteria, _ did you change your face [E] again?
[Am] _
_ [B] Those [Am] of us who loved you well [A] _ [Am] can't [Bm] even _ _ die.
[D] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Then it just does that again, of course.
[Am] _ _ _ _
[E] And then when it gets into the chorus, [Gb] which I [E] can't sing.
I don't actually play this one a whole lot because I can't sing it.
It _ goes _ [Gb] _ _ _
into an E minor.
[Em] Did you change your face again _ when you got _ _ to the [C] sad part?
C. _ _ _ _ _
[Em] Did you stay a bit too long? _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ _
_ Wisteria, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ of the man, _ [G] did [Am] you make him understand _ that he _ [Bm] can't tell? _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ [E] _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Em] _ [Gb] _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ [Em] _
_ _ _ _ [Eb] Anyway, it goes on from there.
It's pretty much the same the [Abm] rest of the whole song.
[A] So if you can get that part down, you can get the whole song down. _
So, tough song, but _ let me know if you have any questions.
Send me a message.
Thanks.
