Some of you know the song In The Light by DC Talk back when the [E] band
used to be together.
It's a very old song and I want to kind of give a tutorial of
the song In The Light that used to be a huge hit a while back.
So here it
goes.
We're gonna be in the key of E today.
In the key of E.
So what we have
is E major, [F#] F sharp, [G#m] and G sharp minor.
And I'll get to the technique [D] that the
guitarist uses in there.
So it's gonna sound like this.
[E]
[A] [F#] [G#m]
[C#] [E]
[F#] [G#m]
[E] The verse.
[G#] [G#m] [B]
[E] [F#]
[G#m] That's the
verse.
And then when he gets to the chorus it kind of opened up a little bit.
[B] [F#]
[G#m] [G] [E]
[B] [F#]
[Em] [E]
[B] [G#]
[E]
[F#] [G#m]
[Em]
[F#] [G#m]
[B] [E]
[F#] [G#m]
[E] Alright so here's what I'm doing here.
I'm playing an E major, [F#m] F sharp, [G#m] to G
sharp minor.
That's the [Em] verse.
[C#]
[F#] [G#]
[A] [Em]
And what I'm doing there is going from B to C
sharp, the note on the G string.
[B] So I have [G#] fourth fret to the sixth.
[E]
[F#] [G#m]
[G#]
Up down up and then.
So watch.
[E] [F#]
[G#m] Okay [A] [C#]
so that's the verse.
Then he gets [E] to the chorus.
I wanna be in [B] the light.
So [E] E to [G#] B and the F sharp.
[G#m] G sharp minor.
[E] I wanna shine.
[B] E and then B [A] to F [F#] sharp.
In the heavens.
[E] Oh Lord.
E [Bm] be my light [F#] and E F sharp my [G#] salvation.
G sharp [E] minor.
Cause all I want [F#] is to be.
F sharp in [G#m] the light.
And [Am] then the part where he goes in the [C#] light.
E, [F#]
[G#] F sharp, G sharp minor.
[B]
[E] I [F#]
[G#m] wanna be in the [B] light.
[E] [F#]
[G#m] [C#]
[N] And that's pretty much it.
So it's pretty basic.
It's not too hard.
Just try to kind of keep the rhythm going.
And if you're a beginner you [E] can just do eighth notes.
Or maybe quarter notes.
[Bm] [F#]
[G#m] [Em]
So that's pretty much it.
Hope this video blessed you guys.
