[Dm] when you're playing the minor [Gm] over a blues like this, so it's a [Dm] minor blues in
the key of D, D minor, just count back one key.
So the song's in D minor, I'm playing in, [Gm] I'm using a C harmonica to play that D minor.
[Bb] And I think a lot of, especially a lot of blues players, tend to play just [Dm] cross-harped second position.
Maybe because part of the time they're intimidated [Am] by what third position is or what's going on.
It's so [Bbm] logical.
Third position's really [Am] easy actually.
I found [Dm] it to be just as easy [Gm] or even easier than cross-harped when I was [Dm] learning it.
It's almost like [Am]
[Bb] all the notes, all the same notes work.
The two bend, [Gm] the three half bend, everything actually, every note works.
It's just a matter [Dm] of where you go from there.
So don't be scared to play something like minor blues.
It really [Bb] opens up your playing, [Gm] it's really fun.
You can play the minor scales even over a major tune.
[Eb] So if [Em] somebody's playing in, like this song is in D minor, [Dm] so again [Bb] I went back one key
and I got a C [Am] harmonica, but if somebody were playing in [Bbm] the key of A, [Am] you could still play
[Dm] the G harmonica, you could play the [Gm] minor over it instead of just grabbing a D harmonica every time.
[Bb] And [Am] yeah, just [Dm] don't be afraid to play this song.
