Paul McCartney teaches bass chords
Start Jamming...
Right, okay bit of bass here we go
headphones click track
Bass my old Hofner bass my little baby.
Come on, baby
The bass on this track is very simple the part the bass part is
Really simple and it just basically goes
See, it's the D minor.
It's following all the chords obviously
Pretty straight root notes, which is basically the notes of the chords.
So it's kind of I've got too much on my plate
Don't have no time [A] a decent lover
[D] D minor to do [C] to do see [E] waiting [D] for D minor again [Ab] see D [Dm] [E] minor
[C] see [N] D minor [F] F
chorus coming [E] up
[F] [C]
[G] [F] [Ab]
[Abm] Mountain
E minor D minor to see
[Dm] It's basically what happens
So I'll try it now try and lay it on those tracks where we've got the acoustic guitar on the drums
And now a bit of bass.
Okay, let's try it
Here we go.
Come on boy
[C]
[Dm] [Am]
[Dm] I'll wait [C] searching [Dm] for the time
[C] The
[Dm] time that I thought [C] my
[Dm] [F]
Think [C] [G]
[F] I did [C] I [G] did
[F] [C] Things [G] I think [F] I did
[Em]
So [Dm] [C]
that's [F]
it that should be bass
And that's it very simple
[G] You can do fiddly bits if you want at the end.
I was tempted to myself would have been things
I think I [F] did when I was a [E] kid
Just on the E minor
[Ab]
[G] [C]
Those things are up to you, you know, if you either want to keep the straight notes, it's very simple or you're feeling adventurous
You can go up here on the E minor and sort of fiddle around a bit D minor C
[Dm] [F]
[C] [G] [C] [G]
[F] [C] [N]
