Chords for Gospel Piano Chords - Viewer Request - Praise Is What I Do

_ _ _ _ _ Hi, Sam Sobersando joining Music Services and we're on to our next viewer request.
Praise is what I do.
Let's get after it.
Key of E flat.
Let's have our [G] opening scale.
[Ab] _ _
[G] _ _ [F] Two octaves and [D] _
_ [Ab] _ _ back down.
[D] _ _
[F] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ _ [Eb] _ _ One octave on the left hand.
Here we go.
[F] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
[Eb] _ _ And back down.
[C] _ _
[Ab] _ _ [G] _ [F] _ _ [Eb] _ _
All right.
Now, Praise is what I do.
It's a very involved song where it's a myriad of chords that's all over the place.
Let's not forget our Nashville chord [Fm] system.
_ [Gm] _ _ [Ab] _ _
[Bb] _ _ [Cm] _ _ _ _ [D] _
[Eb] There it is.
Now watch that scale.
And back down.
[D] _
_ [Cm] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ [Gm] _ _
[Fm] _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ Now, a lot of our chords will be found in the Nashville chord system.
So let's get you started.
_ _ Melody. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _
_ _ _ [Db] _ _ _ [G] _ [Bb] _
_ _ [Ab] _ [G] _ This is why we have you practice [F] scales because you will find that the melody of every song
will be found in the scale of that song.
[G] So since this is our highest note in the scale, let's put the chords beneath that note.
_ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _
We're going to give you this chord.
_ You can consider this the one. _ _ _ _ _ _
[Gm] _ _ Our three. _ _ _
[Ab] Our four. _ _ _ _ _
An [Eb] octave. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _
Our [Bb] five.
_ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _
[Eb] _ Three.
_ _ _ [Ab] _ _
_ Two.
[Eb] One.
_ For those who count the number system, gospel music again plays within some rules, but
sometimes it'll go outside of the rules.
Back again.
Praise is what [Gm] I do when _ [Ab]
I want to get [Bbm] _ close [Eb] to you.
_ _ _ [Bb] I lift _
[Ab] _ [Bb] my _ hands.
We'll give you this chord.
_ It's pretty.
[F] _ [Eb] In praise.
_ _ _ Walk [Bb] up.
[Fm] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ [G] _ _ [Fm] _ _ [F] _ _ _
_ _ [Eb] _ Praise is who [Gm] I am.
I _ [Ab] will praise you [Eb] while [Cm] I _ give you that minor.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Bb] I'll praise _ [Ab] you _ [Gm] _
at _ [Fm] _ all.
[Eb] And a seven.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
All right.
That'll get you through that part.
Now continue. _ _ _
_ [Db] I [Eb] vow to _ [Ab] _
_ [Fm] praise you _ _ _ [Eb] _
[G] in the _ good and the [Cm] _ _ scales.
_ [Eb] _
That turnaround.
[Ab] I'll _ praise you _ _ _ _ [G] whether _ _ happy [A] _ _ _ [D] _
or [Cm] _ sad.
I do know the words.
I [C] actually taught this to my last choir.
[Eb] _ _ _ [Ab] I'll [Fm] praise you _ _ _ _ [Ebm]
even [G] _ I am full.
Scale.
[A] _ [B] Go _ _ over [C] the C major. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Because.
[G] _ _ _ _ [Fm] _ Praise _
_ [Gm] _ is _ [Ab] _ what.
_ [Eb] _ _ _ _ [Gm] _ [Cm] I.
_ _ _ _ _ [Eb] Cause I.
He's a quarter chord [Db] change.
_ _ Slow it down.
_ [Cm] It. _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ To.
_ [Eb] _
Now, those chords will get you to that part of the song.
Now, of course, I'm giving you block chords to keep away from the YouTube copyrights.
I'm sort of speaking the songs because this is the actual teaching method.
You see the course that I've given you are all [F] based on [Gm] the scale. _ _
[F] _ _ [Eb] There are [Ab] times we go outside of it.
_ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
[C] _ _ [Cm] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ [Cm] _ [Fm] _ _ [F] _ _ [Eb] _
_ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
[Bb] _ _ [Cm] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
[Fm] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ _ [Db] _ _ [Ab] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
[F] _ _ [Cm] _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Ab] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
[Am] _ _ [Cm] Sad.
_ [Ab] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[F] _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ [Fm] _ _
_ [Eb] _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ [Cm] _ _ _ _ _ [Db] _
_ [Cm] _ _ [Fm] _ _ _ _ [Eb]
So that's the entire song to this part.
_ _ [Db] _ [B] _
_ [Bb] _ _ [Abm] _ See how you walk into that.
_ _ _ [Db] _ _ _ _ _
[Ab] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Slow it down.
Watch both hands.
[Db] Praise.
_ [B] _ _
[Bb] _ _ [Abm] _ _ _ _ See that chord.
The four.
[Db] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Ab] _ And this is the [Eb] chain.
It walks [Fm] down. _ _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ [Abm] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Db] _ _ _ _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _
All right.
Now, that said, of course, you can use to get you through the song.
You can also play along with the actual recording.
You will see how these chords will match up.
That is praise is what I do in the key of E flat.
