Chords for Lesson 20 / Sleepwalk in Key of C

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Here's a song called Sleepwalk, an old Santo and Johnny song from back in high school days,
for me at least, which would have been in the late 50s, early 60s, I don't know exactly
what year it [G] was. _ _
It's best played if you have either two guitars or a guitar and a bass, or a steel guitar
and a regular guitar or what have you, but [C] you need something giving you. _ _ _
_ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ _

[Eb] _ _ [A] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _

_ _ [F] _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _

[A] _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ [C] _ _

[C] _ _ _ _ [Fm] _ _ _ [G] _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _
_ _ [E] _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
_ _ Okay, now you won't probably find a Chet [B] version of that on any of his albums, [Dm] at least I don't
know of any album that has that on it, but he did play, I believe with Leo Kotke on Prairie
Home Companion, and I think they played that.
And Chet, I believe, just did kind of a one note version.
So this is a version I've worked up for myself. _ _
I don't know the names of these chords, but I can tell you how to play it.
[C] _ _ [G] I start with a _ _ G, _ _ that's probably a G diminished, _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _
C9, E.
[G] _ _ It's the same chord, I don't know
if it's still a C, I guess it's still a C.
_ [D] _ _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ _ [E] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Abm] _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ [Am] _
_ _ It's probably an A minor, and then [F]
I _ [G] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
[G] _ [Fm] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
[D] _ _ [D] _ _ call this the four speed shifter chord.
I have no idea what it is, but it's some kind of a diminished also.
But anyway, we're up on the sixth fret with our little finger on the B string, and then
the next string, the G string, we're on the fifth.
[Abm] And on the sixth for the B string, and then on the fifth for the A string.
[D] _
And we're sliding that up a _ [Eb] _ _ _
_ [Em] _ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ ninth chord again, [E] _ _
_ [D] _ _ [Abm] _ _ _ _ _
[Ab] _ _ [C] _ _ [A] _ _ [C] _ _
[A] _ _ or [Am] down here, an A minor.
[E] _ _ [F] _ _ _ And that, we're playing [Dm] four strings, we're playing the sixth string [F] on the first fret
with our thumb, and then we're getting the second [Fm] third _ _ [Ab] with our first finger, and the
D string's open. _ _
That's a steel guitar, F _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _
[Cm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Eb] _ minor. _
[D] _ _ [C] _ _ _ [A] _ _
[Em] And _ _ [Cm] then we [F] _ _
_ _ _ [Db] _ _ _ [D] _
have _ [G] _ _ [E] _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Cm] _ _
a little weirdness.
[G] _ _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ [E] _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ [Am] _
_ _ _ [F] _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ [F] _ _ [Ab] _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ [E] Actually, that's an E up there. _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Okay, [G] enjoy that.
I've enjoyed it for many years and I still can't play it.
But just, we'll do [Gb] our best.
Thank you.
