[G] [C#m] Alright, this is gonna be Marcy Playground with Sex and Candy.
I gotta tell you something, I absolutely love this song.
It is the coolest, just chill, hanging out, you know, drinking a beer or chilling somewhere
in the city song.
I freaking love it.
I don't care that it's simple or that it has a simple bass line, it is super fun to play,
super fun to jam out to, and you are gonna learn this.
Marcy Playground, bam!
Ok, so don't forget to click on the YouTube text box right down there, there's a little
clicker, and there you'll get some free lessons that aren't on YouTube at all, you gotta click
that box for it.
And the whole idea behind these lessons is that they are allowing you to practice and
to get better on the bass and to learn your chops and to get faster, learn different techniques,
but you're learning it in a musical context.
So it's not like, you know, no matter what, when we play bass, you know, you're not gonna
be able to learn everything just through songs, you're gonna have to do some rote repetition
and some learning, so why not make, you know, minimize that as much as possible and make
it fun to learn.
And that's the whole idea behind all this stuff, behind this, you know, these videos
and everything, is to just basically be able to play the bass, be able to learn how to
play stuff on the bass, but to do it while you're having fun, right?
And they're free, they don't cost anything, so you might as well click on that link, get
those videos, yo.
Alright, so the first part of [Bm] this song
And
[C#] you can be as minimal as you want, or you could fill that up with more notes if
you [Bm] want to get a little crazy.
[E] You know, but I kinda like to play this song very minimal, just chill.
[B]
Anyway, you are going to be on the second fret of the A string.
So you're gonna hit that two times, right?
And then three more times.
Just like that.
[G] Then you're gonna be on the third fret of the E string, [F#] [G] right?
Twice, one more time, [F#] and then you got two hits on that second fret of the E.
Alright, so if I did it [B] [G] slow
[F#]
And then give it one more hit on that second fret if you want.
[B] [G] [F#m]
[B] That last hit's kind of a little ghosty, sort of.
[G] Kinda just hit it really quick.
So that's, you know, for the lyrics.
And [G#] on the last time that you roll around there, you do that four times, what I just showed you.
The last time, what you're gonna do is, when you get to that second [B] fret there, you're
actually gonna hit that seven times, and then stop.
And that's where the chorus comes in.
So [D#m] it's
[F#m] Just like that.
[E] And then the chorus comes in.
For the chorus of this song, you're gonna be on that second fret of the A string again.
Two hits right there, so
So in the timing of it, let me think.
[B] [G] Snare, direction
Yeah.
So you're gonna hit this twice, just like that, second fret of the A string.
[C#] Third fret of the E string twice.
And then two hits on the fifth fret of the E.
Of course you could hit the open A.
But
fifth fret of the E there.
[B] Just like that, and then stop.
He sings the chorus again, and then you're gonna do it again.
And then for the last [G] one
[C#]
That's when he sings, who's casting those devious stares in my [G#m] direction?
Which is so awesome.
I just love the lyrics to this song.
Anyway.
[G]
[A] [C#m] And then you're gonna hit that four more times kind of crescendo at its kind of building right there.
[D] And it's going into [C] the
Right?
That part right there.
And what that is, I'll just play the whole thing for you so you can see it, and then
I'll tell you how to do it.
[D] [A] [G]
[D]
Just like that.
So what you're doing there is you're hitting that fifth fret of the A string.
[Em] You can hit it once too if you want to keep [D] it real minimal.
[C#m] [D] Like that.
[C#m] Either way, you're going from the fifth fret and sliding up [D] to the seventh fret, right?
Just to throw a little flourish in there, make it sound a little bit more interesting.
[A] Slide up to the seventh fret before you get back to that fifth fret of the E.
So you got Right?
And then you're on the fifth fret of the E.
[B]
Then you're gonna be on that seventh fret, right?
Which is kind of the same thing as the second fret of the A where we were before, but it's
kind of cool to do it here because then you can slide down to that third [D] fret.
So you got [C#m] [B] the fifth fret of the E, seventh fret of the E.
So you got
Hit that four times.
[G] Slide it down to the third fret.
Hit that three times.
And then you got a [D] [G] little
You [B] know, just to make it sound a little bit more [A#] interesting again.
[G] And what I'm doing there is [Am] [G] I'm on the third fret of the E, then fifth, right?
[A] [C] And then third fret of the A.
Very simple.
And you're [D] back in your progression again.
So if I do it really [Em] slow
Just [B]
like that.
Then the last time you do this, you're gonna go through the progression.
And then when you go to that third fret there, you're not gonna go back into it.
You're then gonna go to the second [G] fret.
So you [F#] got
[Dm] Hit that eight times right on [F#] that second fret
[C#] before you go into the lyrics again.
