Chords for Gospel Guitar Tutorial, The Blood Will Never Lose It’s Power by Andraé Crouch

What's going on YouTube, it's your boy Kary T Smooth.
If you're watching this channel, that
means you really want to learn how to play R&B, neo soul,
or gospel on this guitar.
Today I'm going to go over a tutorial,
doing a tutorial on the song that I [G#] did, _ The Blood.
It's a traditional [D] gospel song for your Pentecostal churches,
for your [G#] holiness churches.
If you've never heard of it, you definitely want to Google it.
For those guitar players that have heard it in church
[N] and they're like, I kind of want to learn how to play it.
I don't want to just play the melody.
I want to be able to play some chords.
I want to give you some ideas and some options.
I thought of it, my approach was more so
like if [F#] I was the keyboard player
and there was no other instrumentation, how would I play it?
So that's what we're going to do today.
I'm going to play this song in a key of C [C] major today.
_ _ _ [E] Okay, I'm going to start on that six, but I'm going to go major.
[A] _ _ [C] _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ [C] _ _ [Dm] _
_ [E] _ [F#] _ _ _ _ _ _
[F] _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _
Okay, again, [A] for the A. _ _ _
_ [F] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
[Dm] _ _ [Em] _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _
_ _ [F] _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Dm] _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Em] _
_ [D#m] _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Gm] _ _ _ [G] _ _ [C] _ _
_ [F] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ [F] _ _ [C] _ _ _ [Dm] _ _
[Am] _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ _ _ [A#] _ _ [A] _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ [C] _ _ [F] _
_ [B] _ [C] _ _ [A] _ _ _ [F#] _
_ [Am] _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ _ All right, so there you go.
_ Let's go back [F#] and break down some of the movements
that we were doing.
So for that first moment, I'm doing that dominant [A] seven. _ _ _
_ _ I'm playing the melody within [G#] the chords
so that way _ _ you can kind of hear the,
[D] It'll _ never [A] lose.
_ [D] _ _ [F] _
_ [C] _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ [Am] _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ [F] _ _ [C] _
_ [Dm] _ [F#m] _ _ [F#] _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ [C] _ _ [Dm] _ _ [C] _
_ _ [Dm] _ _ [F#] _ _ _ _
_ I'm [Em] letting that E ring out.
[F#] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
[E] I'm going to come down to the _ [G] _ _ [E]
E, [F] F, F sharp, [G] G.
_ [Dm] _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Dm] _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _
[E] I'm doing that movement off of the B string.
_ _ [C] _
_ _ _ _ _ [Fm] _ _
[F] I'm doing a double stop movement.
[C] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [F#] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ C major seven. _
_ [E] I'm going to _ minor [G] 11 chromatic down.
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _
[Am] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[C] Half step up diminished.
[D#] _ _ _ [Em] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Am] _
_ [F] _ _ [C] _ _ _ [Dm] _ _
_ [Am] _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ _ [A#] _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _
_ [F] _ _ [C] _ _ _ [C#m] _ _
[F#] _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ [A#] _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
Then I [E] did like a little pickup.
[Em] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ [C] _
_ [Dm] _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ [A] _ _ _ _ _ [B] _
[C] _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Dm] _ _ [C] _ _ [E] _ _
And I'm going to do that chromatic from that.
_ [F] _ _ [F#] _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [C#] So if you enjoyed that lesson, leave a comment.
[A] If you want some more traditional gospel, let me know
and I will do my [E] best in order to make that happen for you [G] guys.
