Chords for Mighty to Save Israel and New Breed Guitar Tutorial part 2

_ _ _ _ _ Now that we got the summing pattern _ done, let's get to the intro. _
So the intro _ _ starts _ _ _ at the 12th [E] fret with _ _ _ this E chord variation.
You're going to see a lot of variations in this song.
So you might be familiar with the E, _ _ _ C sharp minor, _ _ _ then A. _ _
But in this song, _ we will _ not strum any chords on this side, but rather the variation that
Israel uses in the song.
I just E, this is your E, which I will show you how to play later.
Then the B, the C sharp minor, [A] and then the A, [C#m] or A2. _
Let's go.
So, _ _ [N] why don't I teach you the A first?
So your A _ _ _ _ chord starts at B. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Let me just adjust this for a while. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ So, [C#m] this shape, _ _ [Em] you'll [N] see Israel use this shape mostly in the song.
So it starts with your first finger, your index [E] finger, on the 2nd fret, [D#] 5th string.
Ay!
2nd fret, 2nd [E] string, sorry.
_ [N] It goes like this, and the 2nd finger, _ your middle finger, will go _ on the _ _ 6th fret, 3rd [C#] string.
_ _ [G] Sorry about that. _
[C#] _ _ The 6th [B] fret, 3rd string. _
Then finally, [A#] your ring [A] finger _ is on the 7th fret, on the 4th string. _ _
_ _ [E] _ _ [C#] _ _ [F#m] _ _
[N] It's almost like a triad shape.
I don't know.
I'm not very familiar with chord theory [A] yet.
_ [E] But this is your A chord, and once you let go of the first finger, this is what you will call an A2 chord. _ _ _ _
[A] So, you let it ring from the [N] 5th string up to the 1st, but you leave the A string at the top out.
_ _ So, you're going to be seeing [A] this shape in the intro.
_ [N] Because you will _ _ _ slide _ _ _ this shape _ _ _ _ _ _ to the 12th fret.
[E] _ _
This is _ _ [A] your A, [B] _
if you go one step higher, if you go a whole step higher, you go to the B [E] chord.
_ [Am] Then C, [D] and a D, [A] [E] then your E. _
That's mostly the theory behind it.
_ _ [N] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [E] _ So, this is the intro.
You'll be using this shape. _ _ _ _
_ _ As you notice, _ [C#] my pinky is [G#m] not moving.
_ _ [N] _ _
_ And my pinky is the only finger that can move, because all my other fingers are preoccupied.
So, in the song, Israel makes use of this when he [C#m] plays.
[E] _ _ [C#m] _ _ [E] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
So, that's mostly the theory behind it. _ _
_ _ [A] That's how [N] Israel does it.
And the strumming pattern for that would be all downstrokes.
[E] _ _
_ _ _ _ As much as possible, please try to keep your strumming only on the _ _ _ _ 4th fret below.
You don't really want _ _ to hear the top strings.
So, if you can, you might try to mute it, but if I were you, you just strum. _ _ _ _
_ _ You strum the first 4 strings.
Just to make it easy.
_ _ [C#m] The motif, the pattern for what Israel does is _ _ _ _
He places his pinky on _ _ the _ _ _ _ 14th fret, 2nd string.
_ _ And then [E] he lets go.
_ He lets _ his finger ring out.
[C#m] So, _ _ _ [E] _ _
if you're not yet [A#] _ _ _ [E]
used to, if you're lifting your [B] fingers,
[E] _ _ _ _ _ if [N] you're not yet used to hammer-ons,
you might as well practice with this [C#m] exercise. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ [C#m] _ _ [E] _ [N] So, _ first, and then, you follow the melody. _
[C#m] _ [E] _ [A#] _ _ _ [E] _ _ [B] _
[C#m] _ [G#m] As _ [C#m] _ _ [B] _ [C#m] _
[B] _ _ you can see, I give _ _
[C#m] time.
Once I let go of this pinky, _ [E] _
I let the E chord ring out first
before I [D#] place my pinky [B] on the 14th fret, E string.
So, you see the movement is always on the 14th fret.
The intro, _ _ that's the only thing that you'll practice, how to move your pinky [A] between _ [B]
the [Em] [C#m] strings.
[G#m] _ _ Since this is a, I don't know what tempo it is, but it's [C#m] kind of _
[G#m] fast, [N] not so much.
_ But in the intro it is, since I don't know, _ the down pattern is very fast.
So, that's the intro. _ _
