Chords for My hands are lifted up (Piano Tutorial) A flat - Jovonta Patton

_ [A] The song is by Pagan.
My hands are lifted up a very awesome worship song.
So
in order to understand the movement and [Db] the song let's sing it.
My _ ears [Fm] are on
_ _ my _ _
_ _ [Eb] _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ [Db] _
heart [Eb] is in the [Bbm] way _
_ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Db] _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _
_ [Fm] _ _ _ _ [Gm] _ _ _
_ [Fm] _ _ _ _ [D] That's _
_ _ [Db] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ [Fm] _ _ _ _ _ _
the whole song.
So let's look at what we're doing.
_ So I like to teach left [N] hand and right hand so that way you can kind of [D] know what's going on.
Left [Db] hand we're going to do a C sharp, [Eb] E flat, [F] _ F.
_ _ _ [Db] My hands are lifted up C [Eb] sharp,
_ _ [F] _ _ my heart [Db] is ready to receive my heart C [Eb] sharp, E flat, then [Bb] B [Ab] flat, A [G] flat, G. _
_ _ [Ab] _ Up to your A flat, _
[Bb] B flat, _ [C] _ a blessing from you C, [D] _ D, _ [Eb] E flat, a blessing [F] from you F, _ [G] _
G,
_ _ [Ab] then A [Bbm] flat, B [C] flat, _ C to take it [D] out then D, _ [Db] back to the [D] top and the D basically is a filler.
[N] _ _ _ _ _ So I'm going to show you that that's how the [Bb] CD does it and then I'm going to show you some other
things [Db] you can put in there to simplify the song. _
So now that you have the left hand let's chord it
with the right. _
It's going to be F, B flat, C, and E flat.
[Bbm] The right is just an F7, 6, 4 chord.
_ _ [Eb] _ _
Second chord is going to be a C minor 7 chord.
So basically what you do is you take your F and
move it to a G. _ _ _
The [A] third chord [Ab] is going to be an A flat minor 7, a major 7 chord.
So basically you
take your B flat move it over to your A flat.
_ _ So that'd be G, A flat, C, E flat.
So those are the
first three chords in there.
Those are consistent.
Remember those. _ _ _
[B] Simplify [Db] that if you don't want to
play that we'll do. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [G] So simple way that you can do it is if you want to just do [Ab] a simple.
If you're
not, if you can't get all of these and the simple way is _ you just do a regular A flat.
You're right
so A flat over C sharp. _
[Db] _ _ [Eb] Then _ _ _ _ _ _ _ you just do a regular E flat _ inverted which is G, B flat. _
[Fm] Then _ you go down to an F and this is a F minor 7.
So basically it's an F minor 7 here but you're
just playing the bass here.
So basically it's an F with an A flat.
So _ [Db] it's an A flat and you're
right with a C sharp.
_ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _
An E flat with an inverted E flat chord.
[Fm] _
_ So [A] that's the easy way to do that
if you don't want to do the chords there.
So I showed you that.
All right _ _ _ _ [Db] so we repeat that. _ _
[Cm] _ _ _ [Db] My heart is ready [Eb] to receive you.
Do the C sharp and E flat.
_ _ [Bbm] _
_ _ Then you're going to go to a B flat.
When you go to the [Gb] B flat basically _ _ you're playing an F sharp over B flat.
So that's B flat,
_ F sharp, B flat, C sharp but drop it into the F sharp.
_ [Ab] _ _ Then you go to an A flat.
Now A flat C
with A flat and E flat on your left.
[G] _ _ _ _ _
A flat over down to a G and then just an F and B flat. _
_ [Ab] Come back up to your A flat. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Bbm] _
_ _ Then you do a B flat minor 7.
So that's B flat with F, _ A flat, C [Ab] sharp. _
So it's A flat over C.
That's C with A flat, C, E flat.
[D] _ _ _
B flat _ _ _ [Fm] added 9 over D.
So _ that's really this is an F.
The F is the 4 chord.
So that's C, F [Dm] and B flat with a D in the bass.
[Eb] _ _
Up to your E flat second inversion.
And when I say inversion basically it's the root chord.
An inversion is when you reverse.
You take the fifth and move it _ this way.
First inversion.
_ _ Second inversion is _ I don't know if I'm telling you that right.
But anyway so that's B flat, E flat, G.
_ _ _ And then from there you do [Fm] a _ _ _ you're going to go C, F and A flat.
This is an F minor
_ with an F minor 7 here without the A flat. _ _ _ _ _
_ F, C, E flat with C, F and A flat.
_ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Fm] _ _ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _
And you're going to do a G minor 7.
So that's G with F, B flat.
_ _ _ [Ab] _ _ And you're going to go to the A flat which is B flat, A flat, C.
[Bbm] _
_ So I'm going to do a B flat minor.
That's F minor with a B [Ab] flat.
_ We're going to do an A flat over C.
So that's C with an E flat. _
And [Am] resolve it on a [D] _ _ _
[Ab] _ C augmented
chord with an octave in there.
So that's C, E, A flat, _ _ C [D] with a D.
Then back to the top.
[Db] _ _ _
And that's pretty much the whole song.
Now _ _ what we can do to do to simplify it is. _
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _ [Fm] _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ [Ab] So [Db] _ _
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _ [Bbm] _ _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ [Eb] _ [Ab] if _ you don't want to walk it back up to the A flat you just go to [Db] your C sharp. _
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _ [Fm] _ _ _
Right the first three chords you were playing from the beginning.
_ [Db] _
_ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ And [Ab] _ [Db] _ [Ab] _ _ then _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ [Ab] do the resolve.
So that's pretty much the only [Db] change.
_ _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ _ [Fm] _ One more thing I'm going to show [Eb] you.
[Ab] _ _ _ [Db] _ My [Ab] Lord is.
_ [Eb] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _
_ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _
[Ab] _ _ [Fm] _ _ _ _ _ [Db] _
_ _ _ [Fm] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Eb] That [Ab] _ _ _ [Db] _
_ _ [Eb] _ _ _ [Db] _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _ _
_ _ [Cm] _ _ little [Ab] walk down is. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ A flat and [Gm] C, [Ab] B flat _ and [Fm] G.
_ F and [Eb] A flat, _ E flat _ _ _ and [Db] G.
_ _ _ So pretty much these are like.
You're hearing the songs like this.
[Eb] _
_ [Ab] _ [G] _ _ [Fm] _ _ _ [Db] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Eb] _ [Db] _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _
_ [Gm] _ _ _ [Gb] _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ [Eb] _ But [B] anyway, so thank you for watching.
[C] I hope I've given you something to be [Ab] helpful.
_ Have a wonderful day.
