Hey YouTube guys and gals, it's me your old buddy Magnum over here at the
Cowboy Music Studio tonight.
I was gonna do just a real short video here for you and
show you the difference between the way most people play this song and
The actual way that the song really should be played if you're a country music fan or a country music
musician, especially old country
Hank Williams
Uh, this is called I'm so lonesome.
I could cry now.
I know you know this song.
We're gonna play it in the C
position
I'm capoed up to an E flat here
But it's still the C position most people [Bb] play it with a C and F and a [Eb] G and it goes like this
Did you hear?
that long
some
Will he sounds too blue?
To fly up to an F [Ab] that means he's lost [Bb] see
[Eb]
The will to live and I'm so lonesome
[Bb]
gee, I
[Eb] Okay, [N] you can play it that way if you want to
Or you can add a couple of chords and make it sound totally different
We're gonna add the second chord from the C is a C major seventh, which just means you take this fourth finger off
Sounds like this.
Did [Eb] you hear?
that
lonesome to [Cm] an a minor
whipper [Bb] will to a G
[Eb] Back to a C.
He [Gm] sounds too blue [Bbm] to a G minor
to fly
[Eb] to a C 7
to an F
[Ab] That means F [Abm] minor.
He's [Eb] lost
See to an a minor the will [Cm] to live
[Eb] I'm so lonesome
See to a [Bb] g7.
I
could [Eb] cry
Got it.
Okay.
Let me show you how it sounds.
We'll just do one verse
Did you ever?
[Bb] see
[Cm] night [Bb] so long
[Eb] when time
[Bb] goes
[C] by
[Bbm]
[Eb] [Ab] The moon just went [Eb] behind [Cm] the cloud [Eb] to hide
[Bb] his [Eb] face and cry
[Bb] [Eb]
Okay, [Bm] simple as that till I speak with you again even after
