Chords for In Your Eyes Lesson

_ _ Hey, Zach, what's going on man?
[A] This is gonna review [G] the lesson that we had on in your eyes by Peter Gabriel
the chord progression is going to be B minor [Bm] _ _ [A] a _
To [D] D _ for the large [G] part of the [Em] verse okay, and then the pre-chorus is [A] gonna go _ [G] a To G [A] _ [C] G
And then the chorus is gonna be [E] going E to [D] D _
Okay for the most part of this song [Dm] the version that I told you to [A] check out for an acoustic
[G] Version is by a guy named Jeffrey Gaines, and that's G a I n e s he does a really [B] cool
Rendition of this song the [G] original version is great, too, but it doesn't have a whole lot of guitar in it
So to be able to play one [C] that play a version that does you may want to check out that song
That version of this song so again
the [Bm] verse chords B minor
_ Okay, that looks like this [N] on the second fret to a major
Okay _ to D.
All right and on D.
Don't play this top E string.
Okay, so the rhythm is [A] gonna go _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
[Bb] Down [Am] up down up down _ _ _ and that first down is a little bit longer
So _ your second stroke is gonna be up _
_ _ _ [G] Okay, so you're gonna do [Bm] that on a B minor and _ [A] _ _ [D] _ _ _
_ that a chord just for simplicity what you can do [A] is just play that [Bm] once _
_ _ _ [A] _ [D] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Bm] _
_ _ And then [Am] I'm [Bm] muting basically right _ there
You _ _ [A] _ [D] _
_ _ _ _ _ _
[Bm] _ _ _ _ _ [A] _
[D] _ _ _ _ _ _
[Am] can add your pinky up to that D [D] suspended chord
_ So [Bm] _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ [D] _ _ _
_ _ _ I'm gonna [Am] do the rhythm.
I'm gonna try to do this without playing the actual chord
It's _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
kind of hard to do without playing that left hand
_ _ _ _ a [D] D
_ E _ [Am] minor
_ _ [D] a
B _ _ _ _ _
[A] minor _ _ a D
_ Okay, [N] _ _
_ so practice that a couple times to get it.
That's the [Bm] verse _ _ _ _
[A] _ [D] _ _ _ _ _
[Bm] So lost _ _
[A] _ [D] _ sometimes _ _
_ [Bm] _ Days _ [A]
pass
[D] _ _ _ _ _
[Bm] And this moment keeps [A] slipping [D] away _ _ _ _
_ [Bm] _ When I want [A]
[D] to run away _
[Bm] I drive off [A] in [D] my car _ _ _
[Bm] _ _ But [A] whichever _
[D] way I turn
I [Bm] come back to the [A] place [D] you are _ _ _ _
Okay, now the pre-chorus is gonna go a [A] to G
_ all my [G] mistakes
_ They [A] return
_ _ grand [G] facade
_ So soon we'll [A] burn
_ _ _ without [G] noise
_ Without my [A] pride.
I reach [D] out [G] for me
_ Sit on this _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ In [E] your eyes
On eyes, you're gonna go to E major.
Okay, he majors gonna look like that
All _ [Am] right.
So the pre-chorus again a to G a to G a to G
You sit on G at the end
[C] When he's going oh in your eyes and on eyes you go to E major.
Okay.
Now we're gonna go from E to [E] D
We're gonna go
_ _ [Ab] So this is in [E] your eyes
the light [D] the heat _ I
am [E] complete
_ _ See the [D] doorway _ _ _
Thousand [E] churches the [D] resolution
_ _ of all my _ [E] _ _ _ researches
[D] _ _ _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ Yes _ _
[D] _ I _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ _ [E] feel it in your eyes.
_ Oh
in your eyes, _ oh
_ _ _ Oh _
Now all I'm doing there on [G] when it looks like I'm just holding [F] that E chord, but actually what I'm doing is I'm playing E _
[Gb] [E] Whoops.
_ Okay, and then I'm adding my pinky
_ [C] To the second fret of the D string.
So basically it's gonna be an E [E] suspended chord
_ and _
_ [Am] that's just
_ [A] And right there you're gonna hammer up with your [E] pinky _
There's _ _ _ _ _ _ the hammer and then you pull it off _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
So Okay
So now you've got the [C] entire song you've got a verse which is gonna go B minor a to D
[G] You've got a pre-chorus which is gonna go a to G a to G a to G so on and so forth
You sit on the G and then you go into your E to D progression [N] for the chorus
He's kind of going in and out of different keys, which is kind of cool _
And then on that [C] E chord you're you're gonna hammer up to E [G] sus4 or just E suspended
You [Am] can call it also another suspended chord [G] is from D
You're gonna use your [Am] pinky on that to go up from the second fret to [G] the third fret for a [C] D
Suspended or a D sus4 chord, [D] okay
_ And anytime I'm doing [C] that in this song for me at least I'm gonna [D] hammer
_ I'm _ [Am] gonna play the [D] chord and _ [E] then hammer up with [D] my pinky _ Okay _
_ _ _ _ _
Or the opposite of a hammer is a pull off. _
_ _ Okay, or _
Just like that you [C] play it and then you either pull or hammer accordingly, okay, so follow that chord progression [D] and
_ [Em] _
[Gb] You _ _ _ _ may want [B] to go online and try [D] to get the [C] actual lyrics as I'm [G] sure that I was not [F] doing those 100% correctly _ _
But again, Jeffrey Gaines is gonna be a cool [Fm] guy to check out for that.
He might even be on YouTube
I haven't really checked it out, but
_ _ [Bb]
It's a great song I hope you [F] found that helpful
Just practice the rhythm.
I know that we've kind of been working [C] on that a little bit
If you keep one rhythm [F] consistently throughout the entire song, it's probably gonna be the easiest way to do [C] it
Like I said that original mp3 is really gonna be kind of all over the place as far as instrumentation and rhythm
[F] But listen to that Jeffrey Gaines version.
It should be able to help you out
So thanks a lot for tuning in Zach everybody else who [N] hopefully found this helpful
Welcome you guys are always welcome back
Anyway, that's it.
