Lady.
So we are a little bit sharp versus concert pitch.
So I'll give you the notes.
We [E] have an E
[Am]
[Dm] and
[Gm]
[Db] [Bm]
[Fm] [Em] E.
[G] So first we're going to look at the left hand and then we're
going to look at the right hand.
[Bbm]
[Gb]
[Ab]
[G]
So we're only going to play the top four strings on the
guitar on this song.
And the first chord is [Fm] this [Bbm] chord.
[N] So we've got fret 8,
[G] 6, 6, [C] 8.
And we're going to play the 8 here with the little finger.
[Bbm] So we've got
and we're
going to slide it up to 9.
[Gm] Then what we're going to do is bring the middle finger down
[G]
[C] onto the [Gb] 7th fret here.
[G]
[Gb] [Gm] So we're in that shape here.
So we
[Dbm] [G] have
[C] [Gm] which is 8, [Db] 6, [G] 6, [C]
[Gm] 8.
[Gb]
[Gm] And then we're going to take the middle finger, sorry the third finger and just move [D] it down
a string.
So it comes [Eb] here [A]
[G] on the 8.
[Ab] [G] So then we have [Ab] [Cm] 6, 8.
[D] [Gm]
[Ab]
[Gm] [Bbm] So all together we've got
[Gm]
[Gb]
[Ab]
Then every now and then we do throw in another chord which [Eb] is
[A] and that is 7, 8, [G] 7, [Cm] 8.
[D]
And then obviously we're going to [Eb] move it up again.
[G]
[Eb] [Gm] And then we have one [Bbm] last chord
[D] which is
[Bb] [F]
[G]
so that last part again.
[C] [Gbm]
[Gm] [Bbm]
So all those chords again.
So we've got
[G]
we're going to put the middle finger [Gb] down.
[Gm] We're going to move this third finger down
[Ab] to here.
[G] [C]
[Gbm] [G] [Db]
[Gm] And that one again is 8, 7, 8, [A] 7, 8, 9.
[G] And now let's have a look at the right hand.
So the two strumming patterns in this [Bbm] song are
that's the main one.
Then we've also got
[Bb]
[B] So the first one is going to be two [Bbm] downstrokes.
[G] Then it's a muted downstroke.
Then [Bbm] down, [G]
[Fm] mute with a downstroke and then [Bbm] upstroke.
[Gm]
The second one [Bbm] is
[G] so we're going to play the first two [Bbm] downstrokes.
[Fm] And then this hand is [Ab] going to keep on.
[Bbm]
[Db] [Ab]
[G] And we're muting with this hand.
So if you look at this [Gb] [Db] hand here,
[F] so half the [Bbm] time it's on the chord and then it's off.
[Gm] So I'm not lifting it all the way off.
I'm leaving it on there.
But it's [Bb] [Bbm] just [Fm] resting on the strings.
[Bbm]
So all the work really is in this hand because this hand just [Ab]
[Fm] carries on strumming.
So again, look at this hand and you can [G] gauge where the pressure is from the thumb.
[Bbm]
So slowly, one more time.
[G] And that is
So we are a little bit sharp versus concert pitch.
So I'll give you the notes.
We [E] have an E
[Am]
[Dm] and
[Gm]
[Db] [Bm]
[Fm] [Em] E.
[G] So first we're going to look at the left hand and then we're
going to look at the right hand.
[Bbm]
[Gb]
[Ab]
[G]
So we're only going to play the top four strings on the
guitar on this song.
And the first chord is [Fm] this [Bbm] chord.
[N] So we've got fret 8,
[G] 6, 6, [C] 8.
And we're going to play the 8 here with the little finger.
[Bbm] So we've got
and we're
going to slide it up to 9.
[Gm] Then what we're going to do is bring the middle finger down
[G]
[C] onto the [Gb] 7th fret here.
[G]
[Gb] [Gm] So we're in that shape here.
So we
[Dbm] [G] have
[C] [Gm] which is 8, [Db] 6, [G] 6, [C]
[Gm] 8.
[Gb]
[Gm] And then we're going to take the middle finger, sorry the third finger and just move [D] it down
a string.
So it comes [Eb] here [A]
[G] on the 8.
[Ab] [G] So then we have [Ab] [Cm] 6, 8.
[D] [Gm]
[Ab]
[Gm] [Bbm] So all together we've got
[Gm]
[Gb]
[Ab]
Then every now and then we do throw in another chord which [Eb] is
[A] and that is 7, 8, [G] 7, [Cm] 8.
[D]
And then obviously we're going to [Eb] move it up again.
[G]
[Eb] [Gm] And then we have one [Bbm] last chord
[D] which is
[Bb] [F]
[G]
so that last part again.
[C] [Gbm]
[Gm] [Bbm]
So all those chords again.
So we've got
[G]
we're going to put the middle finger [Gb] down.
[Gm] We're going to move this third finger down
[Ab] to here.
[G] [C]
[Gbm] [G] [Db]
[Gm] And that one again is 8, 7, 8, [A] 7, 8, 9.
[G] And now let's have a look at the right hand.
So the two strumming patterns in this [Bbm] song are
that's the main one.
Then we've also got
[Bb]
[B] So the first one is going to be two [Bbm] downstrokes.
[G] Then it's a muted downstroke.
Then [Bbm] down, [G]
[Fm] mute with a downstroke and then [Bbm] upstroke.
[Gm]
The second one [Bbm] is
[G] so we're going to play the first two [Bbm] downstrokes.
[Fm] And then this hand is [Ab] going to keep on.
[Bbm]
[Db] [Ab]
[G] And we're muting with this hand.
So if you look at this [Gb] [Db] hand here,
[F] so half the [Bbm] time it's on the chord and then it's off.
[Gm] So I'm not lifting it all the way off.
I'm leaving it on there.
But it's [Bb] [Bbm] just [Fm] resting on the strings.
[Bbm]
So all the work really is in this hand because this hand just [Ab]
[Fm] carries on strumming.
So again, look at this hand and you can [G] gauge where the pressure is from the thumb.
[Bbm]
So slowly, one more time.
[G] And that is
