[N] Hey guys, Barty Marty here, [Eb] Easy Guitar Tunes.
I've got another great tune by the King of [G] Rock,
their Elvis [A] Presley.
It's called Blue [Ab] Suede Shoes and [Dbm] it's a real fun tune to [Gm] play in any [E] situation.
This has been requested a bunch of times.
It's a nice [Gb] easy tune so I thought I'd put this one [Eb] up
on my channel.
So this one here starts, [Gb] it's three chords but I [G] kind of do a couple different
[Bbm] variations with the A.
First one is your regular [A] A shape.
_ I'm [D] able to, my fingers [Bbm] are big so I
actually press three strings [A] down with two fingers but the actual [E] A shape looks like [A] this. _ _
_ Then there'd be your [D] D, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [E] then there'd be your E.
_ And with the A, with the [Bbm] A I just changed [A] it to
an A7.
So your regular A shape would be the three fingers down, A7 will be just lifting
_ _ the middle finger.
_ _ _ So [E] again the chords are [A] A, _ _ _ _ D, [D] _ _
_ _ [E] E _ and A7 would be your A shape [A] with the
middle finger.
_ _ _ So I also kind of strum [Eb] these a little bit different.
I just [C] kind of open and
close them just to kind of give it more of a rock feel.
So it just [E] kind of goes like this, A [Bbm] I'm
lifting all three fingers or all two [Bb] fingers because I use two fingers.
So [A] I'll do the three
finger just so [E] everybody understands [A] but it's kind of like this.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Strumming through it and lifting and
putting down.
These are optional little tricks but you're going to see me do it in the video so I
wanted to explain it.
_ Now [Bbm] the D is just the index finger, it goes [D] like this. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Back [A] to A _ and _ _ _ _ _ then the
[E] E. _ _
I lift all three on the E as well. _ _ _
_ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _ _
So those are little tricks.
Now you can definitely, _ _
_ _ _ you can definitely strum through them.
I just [D] find the lifts sound a little better.
Totally up to you.
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ _ [A] _ [Bbm] And it's a pretty basic rock [Db] strum.
Now there's some [E] talk,
_ excuse me, there's some talking [G] and singing through this.
So it kind of goes like this.
Now [A] it's a one for the money, two for the show, three to get ready now go cat go I [D] don't you _ _
step on my new sweet [A] shoe. _ _ _
_ _ _ You can [E] do anything to lay off [D] my new sweet [A] shoe.
_ _ Second verse, slow it down a bit.
Knock [E] me down,
[A] step on my face, slamming [E] my [A] name all [E] over the place.
Do anything [A] you want [C] to do.
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _ [A] _
So _ _ _ practice those little tricks, practice those [Db] chords and then meet us for the song. _

Let's give [C] this one a go. _ _
[A] Well it's a one for the money, two for the show, three to get ready now go cat go I [D] don't you
_ step on my blue suede [A] shoe. _ _ _ _
_ You can [E] do anything to lay [D] off my blue suede [A] shoe. _ _ _
You can knock [C] me down, [A] step on my face, _ slamming my name all over the place.
Do anything that you want to do.
_ _ _ Lay off my shoe, [G] step _ [D] _ _ on my blue suede [A] shoe. _ _ _ _ _
Well you [E] can do anything to lay off my blue [A] suede shoe. _ _ _ _ _
You can burn [C] my house, [A] steal my car,
drink my liquor from an old fruit jar.
You can do anything that you want to do.
_ _ Lay off my shoe, step [D] _ _ _ on my blue suede [A] shoe.
_ _ _ _ _ You can [E] do anything to lay off [D] my blue [A] suede shoe.

I usually run that one through a couple of times and maybe
repeat the third verse.
