Hi, how are you?
Here's soul man.
I'll do this slowly
I'm gonna play along with this, but let me explain the sections first it starts with
[G] [Bb]
[C] [D]
So those [Bb] are double stops two notes played simultaneously
[Bm] Starting on the 12th fret I'm using this fingering is whatever fingering you want
And then from the 12th fret to the [Am] 10th fret and [Bb] up to the 15
[Em]
17 [Ab] and then 19
Then you get the horn line
[Em] [B] Right and then you get the signature guitar [G] lick
And that is a G to an [Am] A minor
to [G] another G
[Bm] And it's helpful to put that little B flat to B hammer on [C] here to give it that little [Gb] extra
spice
[E]
[G] And you can play
You
[Eb] [N] can play it there as well, [G] and there's the G.
There's [Am] the A minor
And [G] then there's the G again if you're gonna play it this way [N] though.
Don't play this B note
Just play this [G] G right here, which is equivalent to
Right and you might want to get the little hammer on here
[D] Right and then you get [Eb] the [G] [C] stop
Horn line and that is a C to an E flat to an [B] E
to a G and then a
D
[Eb]
And then the B section
grab a rope
That's an E flat.
[Bb] I'll pull you in that's a B flat and then a [C] C give you hope and
Be [D] your only boyfriend a [Db] yeah
And this chord right here is a
[Gb] D skip a string and mute it a [N] C a
E and a [C] G
[Gb] it's a
common get back quarter of five chord and
In the high catalog go wax [D] tax day car soul music
Check out how nice this G sounds [G] now
So [Ab] it takes the place of a D or a D 7 or a [C] D 9
Makes it that [B] gives it that unique sound as it's got the
Suspended fourth in there G, which [Db] is C
[D]
Now because this song modulates the last chord in that sequence in the B section goes up a half step the song modulates up a half step
to G sharp
[Eb] [F] and then [Dbm] the
[Ab] Intro again instead of the 12th fret starts at the 13th
Everything stays [Gb] the same and then the lick instead of being in G [N] is now in G sharp
And the lick is played in G sharp
Play along with this
[G] [F]
[Bb] [C]
[G]
Oh
[F]
[G]
[F]
[G] [C] [D]
[G]

[F] Oh

[G]
[F]
[G]
[F]
[G] [C]
[Eb] [Bb]
[C]
[Eb] [Ab]
[Gb] [B]
[Db] [Eb] [Ab]
[Db] [Ab]
[N]
It's ready to get a follow in Europe follow them to unbelievable women and then he did it and he did it
I mean my god, I hope this helps and
You got it, right?
[Em] Sure.
You do.
