[C] _ [N] Hey, what's up you guys?
Marty Schwartz from GuitarJams.com here.
_ Happy to teach you another lesson and thank you for the great _ feedback on my Cat Stevens cover.
_ _ It really made me feel really good, so thank you.
I'm going to teach you guys the chords _ to that progression right now.
It really just fits into the F major pentatonic scale.
_ And then, _ you know, that's pretty much the whole scale you would use for everything on this progression.
_ _ All right, the first chord is an F major chord.
I think it would be a good idea to play this as a bar chord for this song. _ _
[F] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [D] Then we go to a C [Bb] chord, Trouble [G] Set Me Free.
[C] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ And I'll work on a little rhythm in a second.
So we've got F to C, then we need a G minor chord.
All these chords are from the [F] key of F major.
_ _ [Gm] _ _
_ _ G minor, [G] looks like your finger's the capo and you play [Ab] an E minor shape [Gm] there.
_ So we have that.
And then the next chord is B flat major.
So you could either do this one [Bb] up to where the root's on the sixth fret and add your
middle finger and make it a bar chord.
_ [Gm] _ _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _ [Gm] _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ _ So it repeats G minor to B flat.
I usually play the B flat right here. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Am] These are all in my e-book too that you can [Gb] get from the link below.
[Bb] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [F] Same chord, B flat major.
It's up to you.
I play this one, tends to be harder for a beginner.
So here's what we got.
F. _
_ _ _ _ Chord, whoa, [C]
let me play the C.
_ _ [Gm] _
_ G [Bb] minor, B [D] flat, oh, G minor, B [Bb] flat. _ _ _ _
_ Stays there [F] back to _ _ trouble, _ [C] oh, trouble can't you see.
[A] _ [G] _ _ _ _ [Gbm] _
[Bb] Caught a wreck [Gm] in the [Bb] love that's me.
_ _ So, [Gm] check this rhythm out.
[Gb] There's really only the bridge and then that's the whole song.
We got, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ so we got down, down, down, down, up. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ And I'm swinging it a little bit.
There's a little bit of groove there.
We got down, down, down, down, up, up, up, down, up, down, down, down, down, down, down,
down, up, [E] up, up, down, [F] down.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Gm] _
_ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ [Gm] _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Gm] _
_ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
[Gm] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [Gm] So.
_ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
_ [Gm] _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
So the rhythm on those two are a little different.
[Gm] _
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [Gm] _
_ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ I'm going to show you the bridge, but one thing people might have been confused on is
I was playing it in this area and I was, what I was playing mostly was the position where
the roots on the A string and I'm playing the major pentatonic, F major pentatonic.
It's the exact same thing as the D minor pentatonic scale.
The only difference is the F major is played with F as the root. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ [F] _
_ [Bb] Whereas the D [D] minor has the D as the root.
_ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ [Eb] And that's the difference between the major and the minor pentatonic.
Let me show you this bridge. _ _ _
_ _ _ The bridge _ _ has _ three chords that are just down strums.
One, two, three.
_ [Bb] And it goes [G] like this.
[C] _ _ _ [G] Which is G, [E] E, [C] C.
_ [G] Check it out.
G, E, right this way.
[E] _ _ _ _
_ [C] E, C. _ _ _
_ _ [Bb] So it's one, two, three.
It's a little measure of three-fourths, what you call [G] that.
_ _ [D] One, two, three.
So it goes [G] into this bridge, which [D] is D, _ _ _ [G] G, [D] G.
So it's E.
_ _ [G] _ _ _ [D] So D, [G] D, G, G, G, G.
[F] _
F [C] to C.
_ _ _ [F]
F [C] to C.
_ [G] G minor _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] to B flat.
G minor to B flat are always together.
And then it goes right to [D] D.
_ _ [G] D, G, _ [F] _
F, [C] F, C.
_ _ [F] _
F, [C] F, C.
_ [Em] G [Gm] minor.
_ _ _ _ [Gb] Check it to [Bb] C.
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Em] _
[F] _ _ _ _ _ _ [C] Trouble, trouble, _ _ set me free.
[Gm] _
_ Eating [Bb] my heart away, [A] and I'm sending much [Bb] left to me.
_ _ [F] _
_ _ Trouble, _ _ [C] _
trouble, _ can't you see.
_ [Gm] _
_ That G [Bb] minor ends to B flat, [G] and it makes my hands [Bb] feel misery. _ _
[E] Okay, the bridge.
_ _ [D] D, _ _
[G] G, _ _ [F] F, _ [C]
C.
C, C.
_ [F] F, [C] _
C.
_ _ [G] G minor. _ _
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _
Now just right to [D] D again. _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ [G] _ [F] _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ [F] _ _ [G] _ _ _ [Gb] _
_ [D] _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ [Gbm] All the little runs you would need are all over Guitar Jams and the e-book and all that.
