We'll cap it all the way up at fret 7 for Fielder Gold and we're going to play shapes in the key of D.
Let's jump straight into the introduction.
It's going to sound like this.
[A] That's the introduction [C#] before she begins to sing Ooh Ooh Ooh.
So it's the first two bars of your tab.
We're holding down a D chord and we're going to [A] play
4 3 2 3 1 3 2 3.
That's bar 1.
[F] And bar 2 is pinching [A] 4 and 1 3 2 3 4 and 1 again and let it ring [B] for the rest of the bar.
So with the timing for the two [A] bars we get this 1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and 1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and
into the song.
[F] Now that kicks off on a B minor chord so you want to squeeze in a bar to B minor
here.
Now in [B] fact you're never going to play the first string so if you [E] prefer not to play bar
chords you can get this this part the A minor part of the shape here the second third and fourth
strings and simply have the index finger play the fifth string second fret and don't worry about the
third string because you're not going to play it.
Out of habit I tend to make the full bar.
It's bar 3 of your tab.
We're going to well [F#m] let's play it and then we'll come back and break it down.
[D] [E] [D] [A]
Ooh
You'll re [D#] now so B minor chord we're going [F#m] to pinch 5 and 2 and then we're going to play 4 3 4.
I use thumb for [G] the fourth string [D#m] but you could just as easily use [E] index middle to play those two
if you prefer.
[F#m] Now have whatever's holding the [G] fifth string down come away.
I have the whole
come away and again we'll play 5 and 2 [A] and then 4 [F#m] 3 4 B minor over A.
1 and 2 [A] and 3 [F#m] and 4 and
and [G] into this G add 9 chord initially make the 6th string third fret and at some point [B] very quickly
add to it the second [D#] string the third string second [D] fret that's G add 9 pinching 6 and 2
and then come up the chord 4 [F#m] 3 2 [Bm] and then repeat or almost repeat [Am] 6 4 [D] 3 2 so pinch [Am] 4 3 2 6 4 3 2
[D#]
to D at bar 5 [Am] 4 3 2 3 now pinch 4 and [G#] 1 and hammer 1 from the second [A] to the third [D] fret
[Am] that's a quick hammer and then 2 3 2 for some reason at that point [N] she reverses the order of
the fingers on the second and third strings don't worry if you don't do that 3 2 3 will work just as
well [A] 1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and so notice on 3 that quick hammer [B] at bar 6 we then with the little
finger down on the third string pull it off so pinching 4 and 1 and pulling back off [A] and then
3 2 3 and pinch 4 and 1 and let it ring again 1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and during [N] that pause you're
singing you'll
