_ Okay, now we're doing part two of Floyd Kramer's Last Date.
This gets a little bit tricky.
We've got to go up high here.
I'll just play it through for you, down here.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ [Am] _
_ _ _ [D] _ Then it does [C] it again. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _
_ [F] _ _ [D] _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [C] _ So it does it three times,
but the last time it doesn't do [Db] the, _ [Dm] _ [C] okay.
So I'll just play it again for you.
It's not that easy. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ [A] _ _ [C] _ _ _
[D] _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
[Am] _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ _ [Am] _ Well, it is easy when you practice it, isn't it?
Ha ha, okay.
So let's _ try.
The left hand's just basically a C chord
going to an F chord.
C, F, C, F.
_ So that's not a big deal.
The right hand's got all the jumping around.
[G] You've got to go _ a little flip from a G to an A,
_ _ [D] _ _
then C to G, _ _ _ [Am] and then a flip there.
_ _ [A] _ _ _ [A] _ _
That might take a bit of [Em] practice.
_ [G] _ _ _
_ _ _ [E] _ _ Hmm, so stop the video
and just practice that until you got it.
_ _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
Now [C] with the left hand, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
once again. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
One more. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Okay, now the next bit.
_ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _
D, C, D, F, flip. _ _
D, C, D, F, flip. _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Right, that's right. _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ How's the light going?
Still hanging in there?
_ Good, _ okay.
So here we go from the start of section two.
Oh, [C] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _
_ _ _ [A] _ _ [C] _ _ _
[Am] _ _ [Dm] _ I [Ebm] added a little extra bit there.
You got the A to C in the left hand.
[C] _ _ Then you got these [Em] _ [Dm] little run down thirds.
One, two, three.
_ _ [Dm] _ _ _ Right, [Am] _ [Dm] you can do it with one [F] hand if you want to. _ _
_ So here's that whole [Eb] section, section two.
[C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _
[Dm] _ Slow down, Darrell.
That's basically it.
_ [C] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _
_ _ _ [F] _ _ _ [Dm] I'm finding it hard to play [D] slowly, actually.
_ So we'll try it again. _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _
[Dm] _ I'm not even reading the music.
I hope that's right.
We'd better do it again. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
[Em] _ _ [Dm] That's it, you do it three times.
[C] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _
[C] _ And that's it.
I'll do it one more time and that'll be it.
Section two done.
So you just practice that before you even try
and do section three. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Am] _ _ _ [F] _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ _ Oh, Darrell, _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ [Am] _
_ concentrate.
_ [D] _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [F] _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _
Okay, so that's it.
_ When you practice it quite a few times,
hopefully you might play it, hopefully,
something like this.
[C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ [Am] Maybe not. _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ [D] _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ Oh, Darrell. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
[Am] _ _ _ See, it's all about practice, folks.
It's all about practice.
Okay, so that's the end of part two.
This gets a little bit tricky.

_ [F] _ _ [D] _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [C] _ So it does it three times,
but the last time it doesn't do [Db] the, _ [Dm] _ [C] okay.
So I'll just play it again for you.
It's not that easy. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ [A] _ _ [C] _ _ _
[D] _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _

D, C, D, F, flip. _ _
D, C, D, F, flip. _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Right, that's right. _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ How's the light going?
