Easy Bass Lesson! My Girl - The Temptations chords
Start Jamming...
What's up y'all gonna break down My girl
Demonstrate while I'm playing
I've been noseballing plan.
So we start up the intro is G C Chord
[C]
[G]
a
Timber
Okay
[C]
[E]
[Am] [N] Oh
Walk down
So, pretty much demonstrate that whole thing for you.
By the way, the walk [A] down is A, [Em] G, [F#] F sharp, [D]
to E, back to D.
So that last part is, my
girl, walkin' [E] down.
[A] So [G] [F#] [D] that's the walk down.
Now, another part I skipped was the modulation part.
So we'll go to the second intro.
[C] [A] [N]
Solo.
A,
[G] E, G, [F] [E] F, E, [A]
A, [G#] up to [D] D.
[G]
[Dm] That's the last verse.
[E]
So just put it all together.
Real simple song.
I was just kinda goofin' around with it.
As far as playin' it right.
You know, if you played it straight, you'd be alright.
There's some little nuances in there that you could probably fill in there and make
it sound a little better.
But just for demonstration purposes, for educational purposes, I kept it really simple.
So that's all it is.
Only two chords.
It's C to F.
And then it modulates on the last verse up to D to G.
And then everything
just jumps up one whole step.
What they call one whole step.
Okay?
So, that's all it is for the Temptations song.
I have my drum machine at 105.
