_ _ _ [A] _ _ So [Bm] I've got something new and pretty cool for you guys to play along at the end of [D] this video.
But first, here's three quick tips to make you sound better to other [Bm] people and make
this song more fun to [A] play. _
_ Okay, so [G] tip number one is going to be palm muting in the verse and the pre-chorus.
So you can look back if you need to, but in the first two notes of that [Bm] strumming pattern,
I'm [A] palm muting.
So I'm taking the [D] side of my palm and [G] putting it right over the bridge [Am] so that it sort of
blocks the strings, but not [C] completely.
_ _ [Ab] And then after those first [Bb] two strums, I'm opening it [C] back up again.
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
[E] Just kind of gives more of a rhythmic feel to [G] the song than it [D] had before. _ _
_ Technique number two comes in the bridge.
So what we're doing here is just holding out the chords and then on the fourth [F] bar, so
when you're playing that F, _ on beats two, three, and four, [N] I'm doing some body percussion.
So I'm just taking my palm and I'm hitting it right here, _ just above your strings, near
the sixth string, and I'm hitting [Db] that on beats two, three, [A] and four.
[F] So that fourth bar is going to sound like this.
_ One, two, three, four.
[N] It doesn't take too much to do and it's not too precise.
You just got to hit it so that you get a decent sounding smack.
Not too hard, not too soft, but just buttery [D] smooth.
_ [G] _ Okay, so technique number three comes in [Am] at the rap.
So what we're going to do [A] here is an all [G] palm muted rhythm to kind of give it a more percussive
rhythmic feel [D] that you usually find in a rap because [E] usually guitars aren't too heavy in rap parts.
So what we're going to do is grab our chords [N] and just palm mute the whole thing, same thing as before.
Side of the palm, just over the [C] bridge there so that you kind of mute it, but you can still hear it.
And then we're just going to follow the same rhythm. _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ [A] _ [Em] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
[D] _ [E] Ha, made it with [A] tons of time to spare.
[G] _ _
So here's one thing I've always kind of hated, [D] is when you hear a new song and [A] you're super
pumped to play it, but then you quickly realize it's [E] way too high for you to stick.
[D] _ [E] Fear not, [Gbm] I'm here to save the day because in the play [D] along that's coming up now, [Bm] I've
dropped it down four semitones.
If you [Dm] don't know what that means, it [A] doesn't matter.
Just know that it's going to be a [G] lot easier for guys to sing.
So guys, you're definitely going to want to follow along [D] with this.
And girls, [G] you might find this easier to sing too.
I've tried to make it [A] in a good range for male and [D] female, but if not, you [G] can just
use the chords that I showed you earlier.
But follow along with this.
There's a capo on the first fret and the [Em] chords are slightly different, but all [D] the strumming
patterns are the exact [A] same and all the techniques are the exact same as what we [D] just learned.
So everything you've done so far isn't going to go to waste.
Let's get into it. _
