How to Play Spoons 1 -Spoon Playing Grip (Abby the Spoon Lady) chords
Start Jamming...
[B] [Em]
These are my spoons.
They're just regular spoons.
They're not magical spoons.
They're not made for music.
I hold them.
I put the first spoon.
I tuck it
underneath the bottom two fingers like this so it's nice and firm and goes
nowhere.
I take the other spoon and I stick it right here and I keep it loose
so that this one is loose.
This is the anvil and this is the hammer.
This is
loose and this is really tight.
Now I can play [B] it.
[C#]
Tight.
[B] Loose.
Tight.
Loose.
Tight.
Loose.
See?
And that's the basic spoon play and grip.
I'll upload some other
techniques sometime soon.
I [C#] hope that helps.
[B]
