How to Play Bad Moon Rising - CCR (cover) Easy 3 Chord Tune chords
Start Jamming...
[N] Hey guys, Marty Marty here, [G] Easy Guitar Tunes.
I've got another wonderful request from one of my favorite all-time [Em] bands,
[G] Greenskirt Clearwater Revival.
[Ab] Great, great tune, Bad [Em] Moon Rising.
Three chords, very neat little strum [Bb] in it.
However, John Fogerty is singing it.
He's a little higher [G] than I am, but it is the same chord progression that [Bb] they use.
So I hope you guys enjoy this one.
Very cool, kind of a rocky, kind of a country tune, but you know what, it's known [Ab] in any room you play in.
It's always [G] known and you always get a couple of toes tapping when they [Ab] hear it, or even more than a couple.
[Em] Anyway, it's a real good tune, so I hope you guys [Eb] enjoy this one.
Chords to [D] it are D, [A] A, I play two finger A, you can use the three finger A if you like,
[G] and G.
Two finger A, all it is, my fingers are a [Ab] little chubby, so [G] I can press down three strings with my [A] two fingers.
That's all that means.
[G] Then G.
[D] Again, they're D, [A] A, [G] and G.
The [D] strum is kind of a, [A]
[G] [D] I'll do that slow.
[A]
[G] [D]
Do it again.
[A] [G] [D]
It's kind of a, just a feel strum.
[A] [G]
[D] A lot of strums are, right?
Everybody wants to know what the strumming [A] patterns are.
[G] [D]
It's very tough to theorize.
You just [A] got to kind of get comfortable [G] with it and start playing.
[D] I can tell you whenever you strum, never to kill the string.
It just sounds awful.
You want to just lightly [A] touch them.
[G]
It's a great lesson [D] in most songs.
I mean, [A] there are some songs that [D] call for the really heavy strum,
but most [G] times, [D] you're just trying to hit them light.
So there you go, D, A, and G.
[E] Practice those chords, practice that strum, and then join [Gm] us for the song.
[Ab] CCR's Bad Mood Rising.
This is really, [E] really fun [G] in any [Bb] situation, so give this [E] one a go if you can.
Here we [D] go.
I [A]
[G] [D]
[A]
[G] [D]
see [Em] the bad [G] mood [D] rising.
I see [A] troubles on [D] the way.
I see [G]
earthquakes [D] and lightning.
I see [G] bad times [D] today.
[G] Don't go around denying, cause it's [D] bound to take your life.
[A] There's [G] a bad mood on [D] the rise.
I hear [G]
hurricanes a [D]-blowing.
I know the [G] end is coming [D] soon.
I fear rivers [A] [D] overflowing.
I hear [Em] the voices [D] raising rumors.
[G] Don't go around denying, cause it's [D] bound to take your life.
[A] [G] There's a bad mood [D] on the rise.
Hope you get [G] your [D] things together.
Hope [A] you're quite [G]
prepared [D] to die.
Looks [A] like you're [G] in for nasty [D] weather.
One high piece take [G] you for [D] a ride.
[G] Don't go around denying, cause it's [D] bound to take your life.
[A] [G]

So I hope you guys enjoyed that song.
That's [Em] Bad Mood Rising by CCR.
I've got all kinds of real [Bb] fun tunes like that and [G] easy songs over on my channel, so get [Gm] over there and have a look around.
If you see anything you like, definitely [Em] add a like.

I really [G] appreciate it.

Thanks again, though.
