Thank you for supporting really appreciate it
I'm gonna break down a really fun song _ signs _
most famously done by Tesla
_ But it's actually an older tune than that, but anyway, let's zoom in we'll break it down here.
We go all right
So don't don't get scared of the 12 string here.
It's played the exact same way as a six string
It's just chime here
so we're gonna start with a D chord and we're gonna add our pinky to the third fret of the high E and
And this is the [D] intro D _ D the pinky D the pinky D the pinky
[B] _ _ And _ _ so the Bada is the open a string and then [A] middle finger to the second fret [B] and _ _
Then it's gonna lead into that verse which is a [C] C major chord
_ _ _ _ _ [D]
so D
_ the pinky D the pinky _ D the pinky
[E] _ [B] _ _ _ _ _ _
And then we go to a C chord _ [C] and you're gonna just pick the strings a D G _ D _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [B] Ring finger comes off middle finger moves over to the second fret right there
index comes off and you're just
_ Doing the same picking, but it's second fret a _ [G] then _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
the next one is this picking the same strings [A] open a
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ G _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [G] chord _ _
and _ _ _ [A#] then strumming begins after that so [D] from the top _ _
_ _ pinky _ _ _ _
down _ pinky
_ [Bm] _ _
[C] C
_ _ _ [G] middle finger second _ [E] _ open [G] _
and a G _ and _ _
Now we get into some strumming and let's use this [Am] strumming pattern
_ _ down _
[C] _ _ _ down down _
_ _ _ _ [Em] Down down down down up down down up down down down down up [E] up down down down [B] down down up
_ [Am] down up _
_ [E] and
Now we get to this next section _ _ _
[C] _ Yeah, we did this [G] _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ and a G strum [D] and
_ _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ With that strumming [C#m] pattern.
It's D.
_ _ _ [A] _
_ Hey
_ _ [G] _ gee _ _ [A] Hey _ _ _
The D a G a and then we need one bar chord in this song and it's a B minor with the [B] same strumming pattern
_ B [Em] minor to G so
[Bm] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [G] G _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
so B minor to G and then right back to D a
_ _ _ G a [E] which you see that do parts of the song so B minor
[Bm] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [G]
G _ _ _ _ _ _
[D] So I took off my hat [A] a that [G] and G back [A] to a oh
_ _ _ _ Chorus so we're that we're right up before the chorus, so let's do it one more time from [D] the top into the chorus
I'll walk you through it starts with the D chord _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [B] _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ One finger [D] _
open [G] _ _ G _ strumming with [D] the D
_ _ _ [A] _ a _
[G] _ _ _ _ _ [A] Now B minor
[Bm] _ _ _ _ _ the G
_ [G] _ _ _ _ Now we go D a [D] G _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ [G] back to a [A] _ and then we have the _ _
_ [C] _ _ [G] _ DG _ so now we have to follow the chorus which is
[D] _ _ CC and you can still use the same strumming see _ D
_ _ _ [C] CC
_ [G] _
G _ [D] D D D D now [G] just a G
So no see that second time [D] so here it is
_ _ _ _ _ [C] C [G] C G
[D] _ regular old D [G] and the G _ _
one more thing [D] D D D [A] D a
Can't you see [C] the C?
_ _ _ _ And then it starts over [D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[B] _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ _ [G] G back to a [A] _ B minor
_ [Bm] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [G] G _ _ _ _ _ and
then D [D] a
_ _ [A] _ _ G
[G] _ _ Back to a [A] now we go to the chorus [D] DCG
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ [G] No, see that time
