So [N] rock me mama like a wagon wheel.
Alright, wagon wheel, not rocking wheel, we're rocking wagon wheel.
As you can see, Movember is going [D#] strong, but that's not the point of this video.
Today we're rocking out Wagon Wheel, [C#] written by Bob Dylan, made popular by Okra A Medicine
Show, made CMA Song [F#m] of the Year uber popular by [N] Darius Tucker, maybe you know him as Hootie.
Ok, a good four [D] chord song, [G#m] nice easy pattern, [C#m] so without further ado, let's jump in and
let's [F] figure it [C#] out [C#m] together.
[C] Ok everybody, well here, first let's go through our chords.
[A] We have an A chord, [D#m] we have an [E] E major, I play it this way, a lot of you other people
play it like this, I have a hard time fretting [G] that one, [C] F sharp [A] minor, [F#m]
[D] and a D major.
[N]
Now the rhythm is going to go down, down, up, down, up.
[Dm] That first down, you kind of want it to bounce, like,
[C#m] [B] [C]
[N] I'm [D] basing this more off the old crow version, because that's the version I like the most.
So you want it to go [N] down, down, up, down, up, down, down, up, down, up, down, up, down,
up, down, up, down, up, down, up.
And each chord is going to get one full cycle on that strum pattern.
So you're going to start with your [A] A and go down, down, up, down, up, down, up, down,
up, down, up, down, up, down, up.
[C] Then you're going to go to the [G#] E for one [E] cycle, F sharp [F#m] minor, [D] and then the D.
[N] [A]
[E] [F#m]
[D] [A]
Alright, next time through, we go A, [N] E, again, everything's normal up to this [E] point, [B] but
instead of going to [Fm] F sharp minor like last time, [D] we go to D major.
And it repeats itself.
Okay, so let's put everything we have [A#] together.
[A]
[Am] [E] [F#m]
[Am] [D] [A]
[Am] [E] [Am] To the [D] D.
Okay, you guys got that so [G#] far?
[D] Good, because that's the whole song.
[A] Alright, I told you it was going to be an easy one.
[N] That pattern repeats itself two times for the verse, and then two times again for the chorus,
and then two times for the next verse, and it just repeats itself.
There's one more [G#] spot where it slows down, [C#] and it's [F#] the exact same but without the [D] strum pattern.
Alright, so [A] you're going
[C#]
[E] [A] [F#m]
[D] [E] [A]
[G#] [C] [D]
[G] [A]
[C] [E] [A]
[Dm] [G] [C]
So if you pay attention, it's [A] the exact same, but you're [D#] not strumming, you're just [A] going
So think in your brain with the strum pattern.
[E] [C#]
[A]
[D] [A]
[E] [Cm] [D]
[Bm] [C] [A]
[E] Alright, so that's the whole song, everybody.
[A] [F#] If you want to improvise with it, [A] it is in [N] the [D] A [A] major, right?
[C] Okay, [Am] hope you enjoyed it.
[F#] [Gm] Alright, everybody, Wagon Wheel.
Now you know how to [F] sing it, or now you know how to play it.
It's a really good song.
It's the first song I [D#] ever learned to play and sing at the same time.
The [N] melody is really basic, and the rhythm is really basic.
So it's a good [G#] one to learn to play and sing, and [C] your sweetie will love you [E] for it.
We're going to do it with a [D] man or a woman.
This is one of [N] those classic, non [A]
-gender specific, I love you [A#] songs, alright?
So rock it out.
[C#] Stay cool.
