Hey guys, what's up?
Welcome back to the mid class today.
I'm gonna teach you how to play bottom off [D] of Beach Boy
It's a really easy [Eb] song.
It's only got four chords, [D] and it's very repetitive
[G] so
[F] the chords are F sharp [Gb] a
[E]
[D] D
[B] B it's all power chords and just [Ab] use two finger power chords
[A] [Ab]
[Bb] F sharp is the second fret [D] and
the [Gb] second front of the E string [Abm] and
the fourth [Db] fret of the [Db] a string a
[D] Is fifth fret of the E string?
Seventh [A] fret of the a string
[N] D is fifth fret of the a string
seventh fret of the D string and
B is second fret of the a string fourth fret of the D [Ab] string
[A] [Ab] You
Start off you're just gonna play
[Gb] [Gb]
the four notes which is [Bb] the F a
[E] D and B
So instead of playing the [G] full chord, you're just gonna play the root note, which is [A] two five [Ab] on a five two
And [Gb] it's just one two, three, four [D] one two, three, four one two, three four [B] one two, three four [D] one two
three four one two, three four one two, three [Bm] four
And you're gonna do the whoa
During [Gm] that and then you're gonna keep playing the four [Gb] four one two, three four one [D] two
You're just gonna play the [Gm] note
[Ab] And you're just [Gb] saying [Gbm] hey, man.
I miss your collarbones.
I [Bm] know the way your skin feels on my collarbones.
I Know
[A]
[Ab] This guy named Brian and then you play it once on that last time and you don't have to palm you [Gb] to it
You just play open.
Hey, man
[A] [D]
[B] My [Gb] collarbones, I know [A] I sold that [Ab] line steal all my [B] lines from this guy named Brian and then you're gonna get into the chords
[Ab] which is
[A]
[D] [Ab]
[A] [D] [Ab]
[E] I [D]
know
[Ab] [E]
[D] [Ab]
[E] [D] [N] And then
After you finish that little part once you get into the but I feel the way
You're [Gb] gonna play the single notes, but you're gonna play them eight time eight times each which is
one and two and three and four [A] and one and two and three and four [D] and one and two and
[B]
[Gb] But I feel the way [A] that you stare at the back of my neck from the back [B] of your porch while you're
mowing here [G] and then
Again when you get into the chords after you repeat that it's just [Ab] it's
[A] [D]
You're gonna double the length of time you play the chords just like you doubled the notes
One two and three and four [A]
[D]
[B] and [E]
one [Db] two
Way that [A] stare at the back of my [D]
from the back [B] of your porch
You
[Ab] pay for overtime
[A]
Keep my secrets [D] safe.
You break my legs
[Ab] break my legs and
Then you're gonna get up to the part where it's like a solo that's on [D] like synth
So you can just keep playing
[Gb] Up palm [A] muted
[Dm] [Ab]
[Gb] [A] [D]
[B] And
then you get [G] back into the verses and the choruses which is the
One and [Gb] two and three and four in and it just repeats a couple of times.
You'll just have to listen for how many
Yeah, you don't go back to the
Just playing it four times that parts only at the beginning so the chord progressions gonna go
one two three four [A] one two three four one two [B] three four one two three four [Gb] and then once you get to the
But I feel the way
Then from that point on you're gonna play it one and two and three
[A] Four and one and two and three and [D] four and one and two and three and [B] four and one and two and three and
That's the entire song
