We are going to have a run-through like the way I do by Melissa Etheridge
[Dm] So [Am] I've got four [Dm] chords in the song [Em] and which is not [Ab] the hard bit [Bb] the hard bit is the [Ab] strumming
[Dm] Now so the first chord is D minor this chord is B [Bb] flat
And [Em] then we've got [C] C and the [A] other chord is A
[Dm] These are all pretty difficult
[Bb] [C] chords
[A] The
[N] first thing to do is not to try and do it all at the same time
Just try and get your hand [Dm] going
1 e and a 2 e and a 3 e and a
This is 2
1 e and a 2 e and a 3 e and a 4 e and a 1 e and a 2 e and a 3 e and a 4 e and a Step one
Step two is we're going to try and put a hit on the two of each and four of each bar
So you're going to get 1 e and a 2 e and a 3 e and a 4 e and a 1 e and a
Now how I'm doing that is the back of my hand here [N] my right hand and
lifting the fingers on my
not off the guitar, but just
[Dm]
[N] Now the other thing she's doing is lifting her first finger to make a different kind of chord here, [Dm] so we've got [D] C
[Dm] [N] The very first one at the beginning of the song is the only time she does this
[Dm]
We've [A] [Dm]
been trying to figure out exactly where to put [E] the finger on and face it off and all that sort of stuff for a little [F] while
[N] Can't really get it exactly and I'm not sure there's a distinct pattern
And I'm not sure if it's a pattern or if it's a pattern
So what I'd say [A] we'd have a go at is [Dm] this
So
[Bb] [Dm]
[Bb] [Dm]
[Bb] [C]
it really [E] is about your right hand hitting [Dm] these semi-quadrates
[Bb] [Dm]
Okay, [N]
[Dm]
[Bb]
[A]
[Dm]
[Bb] [N]
so of course with the verse we basically get a [Bb] Bb Bb
[C]
Bb
[Bb]
[C]
[N] Bb [C] Bb

[A]
[Dm]
Bb
[Bb]
[C]
[Dm]
[N] Bb Bb [Em] [D] Bb
[C] [G] [B]
[C] [F] [D] [A] I don't know exactly, [Dm] but the [N] most important thing I guess is the lesson out of this song is that you're [Dm] just doing this
See how we go.
