[Ab] _ _ _ Hey guys, it's Karl Brown from Guitar Lessons 365.com.
Today we'll take a look at the solo from Let It Be.
Now we'll take a look at the album version, not the single version.
The album version's got a more, kind of a, some better guitar licks and it's got a [Gb] really
kind of in your face tone, so it's really cool.
So we're going to do that one and I'm just going to do it note for note.
I did the chords of this song years ago, so make sure you check out that lesson as well
if you just want to learn the basic chords.
It's a pretty easy lesson.
But this is going to be note for note of the solo.
So let's start here with this first phrase.
[C] _
_ [D] _ [C] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ Alright so we got a little Hendrix action going there.
We're going to do a little bar between the D and the G string of the [C] fifth fret.
_ _ Hold those two notes and hammer on the seventh fret on the D as you play those two notes,
those two chords.
So [Em] _ _
you can still let that G string ring.
_ [C] Then back _ to those two notes. _ _ _
Then you're going to do a quick [D] slide from seven to five on the A. _ _
[C] And then _ _ _ hammer three
to five on the A and back to three.
You got that so [Am] far?
[C] _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _ Then slide back five to seven.
[E] _ _ [G] _ Hit five twice on the D string.
_ _ [E] Back to the seven on the A and back to [G] that five.
_ _ [C] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Em] _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ Alright next phrase.
_ [Em] _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ Alright so [G] that's just a hammer on from five to seven on the D.
_ _ [F] [C] And then the same thing
on the G.
[G] _ _ [Em] _ _ [E] _
But when you get to that seventh fret on the G, you're going to bend it up
a whole step. _
Pick it [D] again, _ release, [C] and then resolve it down to the fifth fret on that G.
_ [E] _ _ _ [Cm] _
_ _ _ _ Alright next phrase. _
_ _ [E] _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ _ Alright so we're going to basically be sliding _ seven [E] _
to nine on [C] the G, grab eight on the
high E string, _ _
[D] _ _ [C] then slide back down nine to seven on the G and pull off to five. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Then pick five again [D] and _ [E] _ then _ [C] do a bend there at the seventh fret.
[D] Hammer on the seventh.
[Em] _ _ Now as you play that seventh fret, then come and hit the fifth fret on the high E [B] string
_ and then still go back and pre-bend that seventh fret [D] and release it.
[B] Sing _ like that.
So you have this.
_ _ [D] _ _ [B] _ _ [E] _ [Eb] _
_ [C] _ _ And then you release that bend and pull off to five.
_ _ _ [A] _ _ _
[Cm] _ _ [D] Then a couple of pull-offs from [Em] seven to five on the D string.
_ _ [A] _ _ _ [D] Then that slide [C] from seven to five on the A. _ _
Hammer three to five again and back to the three.
So you have this.
[A] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [G] Next phrase.
_ _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Cm] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Ebm] Alright.
[G] _ So that's another hammer five to seven on the D string.
_ [C] _ _
Hit the fifth fret on the G string twice.
_ _ Then back to seven on the D and then back to that five on the G. _ _
_ _ [E] _ Then you can quickly slide into the ninth fret on the G [G] and play the eighth fret [Em] on
the B. _ _
Now you can do that slide, that little lick right there, three times in a row.
So it goes.
_ _ _ _ [G] _ _
So we have [Em] this. _ _ _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ Alright.
And then you're just going to simply play the [A] tenth fret on the B after that third [Dm] time
of playing that lick.
Just let that note hang there for a second.
_ _ Tenth fret on the B.
[G] Then you're going to hammer eight to ten on the B.
_ [E] _ _ [G] _ _
_ [A] _ Hammer eight to [Cm] ten over to eight on
the high [E] E string.
_ [G] Hold that bend at the tenth [Ab] fret. _ _
_ [A] _ Pick it again and release. _ _
_ Then hammer eight to ten and back to eight.
_ _ _ _ _ [Cm] _ So all together so far.
_ _ [Em] _ _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ [N] Alright.
The last phrase. _
_ [E] _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
So it's another pre-bend here at the fifteenth fret on the high E string.
Hold that pre-bend.
_ So pick it already played, already bent.
_ _ Release.
Then another pre-bend at the fifteenth fret on the B string.
_ _ [Gm] _ _ [C] _ Then [G] thirteen to fifteen.
_ _ Then another pre-bend. _
_ Then hammer thirteen to fifteen.
_ And then end it on thirteen.
Want to have [E] this all together?
_ [Gm] _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ [Cm] _ _ _ _
_ Alright.
Whole solo.
Nice and slow.
[Am] _ [C] _
_ [A] _ _ [C] _ _ _ [Em] _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _
_ [Cm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [B] _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ [D] _ [Cm] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Am] _ _ _ _ _ [Cm] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ [E] _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
[Cm] _ _ _ _ Alright.
That's about it.
