_ _ _ Hey guys, Cones here, just hanging out with Marty and teaching a Glen Campbell tune called
Southern Nights.
_ One of my favorites.
Let's zoom in.
Let's zoom it on in.
_ Alright, so
here we go, Southern Nights, Glen Campbell.
_ _ We're going to start with this E chord, just
a little old E chord. _
_ _ _ And our strumming pattern is going to be this kind of bouncy right hand. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ Some good [Em] kind of mute, use your pinky [F#] over here to mute [E] out.
_ _ _ _ [C#] _
_ Okay, so then we're going
to walk up to our next [D#] chord here.
So [E] this is what's called the 6th chord.
It's built
up 6th scale degree.
_ [C#m] _ _ We're going to play it [G] as a C sharp, sharp with a [E] raised 9th, so
C sharp, sharp 9. _
It's like the Jimi Hendrix [Em] chord, just down here.
So, 2nd finger, [C#] 4th
fret, 5th string.
1st finger, 3rd fret, 4th [Em] string.
_ _ _ 4th fret, 3rd finger, 3rd string.
And pinky, [F] 5th fret, 2nd string.
[E] _ _
So [E] we got, _ [C] _ [E] _ and use that [B] 2nd finger there from that E,
[C] _ [C#m] just walk up that little bass [E] line if you want to do that.
_ _ [C#] _ _ _ _ [A#] _
_ _ _ _ _ So our next chord, the 2
chord, playing it as a F sharp dominant 7, _ bar all the way across the 2nd fret.
[F#] _ [F] 3rd finger
is going on the 4th fret of the 5th string, and the 2nd finger goes down the 3rd fret
of the [E] 3rd string.
Leave that _ _ _ 4th string open to catch the bar on [F#] the 2nd fret. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [A] _
So an [G#] A, just a plain [A] old A, you can play it like that, you can play it like that.
_ _ Whatever
you want to do.
[G#m] _
_ _ Our next [A#] chord, A flat [G#m] minor 7, or G sharp, however you want to call it.
I play it like this, a lot of people do, it's 2nd _ finger, 4th fret, 6th string, and then
your 3rd finger is coming [B] down, _ barring the [F#] 4th fret of the 4th, [G#m] 3rd, and 2nd strings.
_ _ [A#] Now the 5th string, _ we want to make [Fm] sure that's muted by our [G#m] 2nd finger here.
_ _ [A] _
_ _ [B] _ [C#] So just for [E] context, _
[C#m] back to the 2 chord, _ _ _ _ [A] _
_ to our A, _ _ _ _
[G#m] _ _ _ to our A flat minor [B] 7, _ now to the
5 chord, B major, just play it as a barre chord, you can play it like this, you can
play it like _ that. _
_ _ [E] Maintaining the same sort of strum, [C#m] _
[E] _ _ _ [C#m] _ _ _ _ _
[F#] just keeping [A] it lively. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [G#m] _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
_ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _ [C#]
The more
comfortable [F#] you get with it. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [G#] _ [A] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [G#m] _ _ _ [B] _ _
_ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _
_ Alright, so [D] that's all there is to it.
Southern Knights.
