Hi everybody, I'm going to make a video on how to play Perfect Day by Lou Reed.
It's in a key of Bb major and the first [F] chord is an F and I'm playing an F in the bass.
[Bbm] And then it goes [F] from F [Bbm] to [A] Bb minor and in the right hand you [Gm] just play.
[Am] [Bbm] [F]
[C] [Bbm] And then into the first verse, Bb minor and [Eb] then Eb and [Ab] then Ab and [G] then Db.
[Bbm]
I'm playing F in the bass into [Gb] a Gb and [Ebm] then Eb minor and [F] then F.
[C] So I'll quickly cover the little riffs in between there.
So [Bbm] it's Bb [Eb] minor and then E and then I just do an [Ab] Ab.
[Bb] So [Eb] it's [Ab] into a [Db] Db.
Instead of going straight into the [G] Db, do the G first.
[A] [Ab] And [Db]
[Fm] then it's F in the bass and then F sharp to bring it up to [Gb] the Gb.
And I'm just going down on the Gb.
So it's [Db] Gb, C sharp, [Bbm] Bb, [Gb] Gb and then into an [Ebm] Eb minor.
[F] And then onto an F, then F, then F and then which is just A, F, C.
And then back [Bbm] again, just repeat.
[Eb] [Ab]
[Bbm] So [C] the second time on the second verse, [Em] you do a slightly different [Am] riff.
You just heard that [Bbm] there.
So Bb, [Eb] Eb and then it's [C] Bb, [Dbm] C, [C] C sharp, C.
And as you hit the C, [Ab] do the Ab chord.
[Bbm] So once again, [Eb] [Ab]
[Bbm] then it's [F] Db, F in the bass and then into [Gb] the Gb.
[Ebm] And then it's Eb [F] and then F into the chorus side.
And [Bb] then it's Bb and [Eb] then Eb and [Dm] then it's Db.
[Eb]
[F] [Bb] [C] So the melody you can pick up yourself from the chords.
It's very [Bb] simple.
[Db] [Eb] [Dm] [Eb]
[F] [E] It's just [B] playing in thirds, starting with an Eb, D and [Cm] F, C, Eb.
[Bb] [F]
[Bb] So that's Bb, [F]
[Gm] G minor, [F] F and then [Eb] Eb and then just repeat.
[Gm] [F]
[Eb] And then it's back into the [Bbm] third verse.
[Eb] [Ab] [Db]
[Gb] [C] And then the eighth bit, they have an instrumental which I think is one of the nicest parts [Gm] of the piece.
[F]
[Eb] [Gm] [C] [Gm] Basically Gb chord, G, Bb, D.
Sorry, G chord, G minor chord [F] and then F major [Eb] and then Eb major.
[G] And it's just [F] doing G, [Eb] F, [C] Eb in the bass.
[E] But you're doing it in thirds, so Bb and D [Am] and then A and C [Bb] and
[Am] [Am] [Eb] then G and [C] Bb.
Obviously you have to know the [Bb] piece and you can pick it up.
[Gm] [F] [Gm]
Gb, G [C] minor, sorry, G sharp, G minor.
[Gm]
[Bb] [Eb] [Gm] [Bb] [F]
[Eb] And then here we go into the finale which is [Cm] A in the bass and a D minor seventh.
[A] [F]
And then it goes into an Ab [Ab] and [Eb] then an Eb.
[Bb] [Bb] Do this riff again.
And then it's basically [Dm] A in the left with a D minor in the right.
[Fm]
It's an [Ab] Ab chord.
[Fm] [Ab] [Eb]
[Cm] [Bb] [Dm] [Em] So once again [Gm] [Bb] it's
[Eb] [Gm] [Bb]
[Eb] [Dm] [Ab]
[Eb] [Bb]
[F] [Fm] [Ab] [Eb]
[Cm] [Bb] [Am] [F] [Ab]
[Cm] [Gm] [C] So that's the end of the piece.
You [F] just repeat that to fade.
