Welcome to Eric [D#] Blackmon [D] Music.
_ [C] _ _
[G] _ [Am] Hi, _ _ [Bm] _ [C] _ _
_ [G] _ _ [C] _ _ _ [Bm] _ [C] _
_ _ _ _ _ [N] and welcome to my Funk Bag Tutorial.
_ What's in the Funk Bag today?
Brick House by The Commodores on electric guitar.
The guitar's tune standard, E-A-D-G-B-E. _
We'll start with the main part of the song, which is in the intro and the choruses.
It'll sound something like this.
[G] _
_ [C] _ _ _ Ow, she's a brim.
[G] _ _ [C] _ Ow.
[Bm] _ [C] _ _
[Bm] She's like a [Am] mustard, written it [Bm] all in [C] hours.
In order to play that, we're going to go up to an octave C,
here at the 10th fret, like this.
Strike it like this.
_ _ _ Down, up, _ and slide it down the neck.
Then we'll go to the 7th fret and play a B minor.
[Bm] _
_ _ And then 5th fret and play [Am] an A minor.
_ _ _ Now, this is [F#] confined to the high strings [Bm] of the guitar.
[F#] _ [C] Like that.
Okay?
Then we'll go up to a C, strike it twice,
_ _ _ then go back to the B [Bm] minor and the [Am] A minor, _ _ like [E] this.
Here we go.
[C] _ _ _ [Bm] _ _
[A] _ [C] _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ [F#] _
_ _ _ [Bm] _ _ [Am] _ [C] _ _
_ _ [Bm] _ [Am] _ _ [C] So we did our octave slide, _ _ _ _ B minor to A [Bm] minor,
[F#] _ _ C [C] twice, _
_ _ _ [Bm] B minor to A minor.
[Am] _
And we're going to repeat that throughout the tune. _ _
Next, we'll play the verse chords, and they'll sound something like this.
A girl's a whore.
_ _ Break her own little wrist.
The younger that you are,
she knows you felt it.
It goes on and on.
_ _ _ I should call the ramblin' [F#] man.
[Am] For the verse chords, we're going to go to an A minor, this way,
and we're going to be plugging in our pinky on the B string at fret 7, like this. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Then we'll move up to the 7th [C] fret. _
_ _ [F#] _ [Am] _ _ So we've got an A minor,
_ and [D#] then we've got an A minor [Am] 6,
_ _ and then an A minor [C] 7.
_ _ _ Here we go again.
[Am] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
[Am] _ _ _ _ _ [Gm] And then we'll go back into our main groove.
Now we've got one more thing to play, and that is our bridge.
And it'll go [C] something like this.
[G] _ _ [Am] _ _ _ [D] _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ [C] _ [D] _ _ [G] _ _
_ [D] _ [G] _ _ _ [B] _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ Now _ _ _
_ _ _ [D] _ [G] _ _ [D] _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ [N] _
for our bridge, we're going to go to a B minor 7,
and we're going to strike it like this.
[D] _ _ _
Double strike, just like that.
1, 2, 3, 4.
_ Shake it. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
Break.
_ And then we'll go back to our octave, and we'll go back into the tune. _ _ _
