This is Mountain Road, an Irish reel in D major.
We'll do AABB slow and then I'll
speed it up a little bit.
This is a string crossing challenge.
One and two
and ready and go [F#m] [Bm]

One little trick on the A part.
In the slow part I was crossing strings
cleanly so I was only hitting one string at a time but the trick that makes this
so cool is when you cross to your open A [F#m]
or not just open A, to your A string, hold
on to the bottom string too.
It makes such a cool double stop.
Watch.
So
[G] [F#m] [G]
[F#m]
you
just gotta get your second finger up tall and arch it so it doesn't
accidentally touch your A string so you can get both strings to [N] speak cleanly
and it really sounds fun and it's easy and it's fun to do.
Alright, good luck
with this tune.
Have fun.
