Gary Schutt  plays Van Halen "Dirty Movies" chords
Start Jamming...
Hey, Gary Shutt here.
I'm gonna play for you Van Halen's Dirty Movies from the Fair Warning album.
Alright, this is an E flat tuning.
All strings are down a half step, except for the bottom E which is down three half steps.
[D#] So you got [F] half step [C#] and then three half steps.
[G#] So when you play D major chord you [C#] got this sound.
In the pre-chorus part I'm attempting to play both parts on one track.
So if you ever play this live [G#] you don't need two guitar players for it.
He's doing a [A]
[E] [F#m] [D]
slide part on top.
[A#] [D#] [E]
[F#] [A]
[D#] [E] I'm trying to come up with something that does both [G#] parts.

[E] All I want [F#] now [D] is to be a good soul.
See [G#] everything I do now.
