Chords for Robin Trower Jack & Jill Intro Lesson Tutorial #2

_ Okay everybody, Jack and Jill, this is going to be a redo.
The first one I did, I played it at normal speed and then I slowed it down.
I didn't explain what I was doing and _ I've had some requests to slow it down and _ explain
how I'm doing it. _ _
It's off the Victims of the Fury album.
First time I heard it I thought Trauer forgot how to play.
I mean, [E] I said, what the hell is he doing?
This thing is so [F] weird.
But if you think [Gb] about it, it's pretty ingenious, it really is.
I'm tuned down a half a step. _
The song itself, Trauer tuned his E string to a D string.
So keep that in mind.
[E] I'm not going to play the whole song, just the intro.
If I get a chance I'll [F] try some of the lead, I don't know.
But [Gb] this song is very difficult to play.
For me it's difficult to play at a slow speed, this riff.
Playing it at normal speed is okay.
I'm having a problem.
I've already done it twice but it [N] didn't work out right.
Pre-bends _ are what's most important in this _ _ song to know.
[Eb] _ _ _ So what I'm doing is I'm pushing up on the B string on the 12th [Fm] fret and [B] the G string
is right [F] there.
Watch it come up.
So you can see the G string come up and then you've got to push down a [Gb] little bit.
It's tough to do slow, not too bad to do fast.
Let me see if I can get [Bbm] through it once quickly, okay?
[Bb] _ _
_ _ _ _ [Db] _ _ _ [Eb] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Abm] _ _
_ _ _ [Db] _ _ _ [D] _ _
[Eb] _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _
Okay, I do have a wah on.
I got it cocked [Gb] halfway or so.
You guys can figure that out, that's no problem.
But the wah helps, it does make it sound better.
Or more like a charmer did it.
_ _ [E] So I'm going to try to slow it down now.
It might take me a couple of shots [Ebm] and I'm probably going to screw it up because it's
tough for me to do it slow.
[Eb] I'm not used to playing that part slow.
So _ _ first note [Bb] is a B, _ it's a B string 10th fret.
_ _ I don't know if a lot of guys [Db] out there use three fingers to solo.
_ And I use four.
_ _ _ _ [F] _ I use them all.
But maybe I can get it down both [Db] ways.
I'll try it [F] with three fingers this time.
And [G] that should satisfy [Dm] most of you.
And then [Gbm] if I get [Gb] it, I'll do it with four.
I know I'm going to screw it up so please [Bb]
bear with me.
So the first [Gb] note is a _ _ _ B on the 10th fret.
And then you go to the 12th fret and you've got [Ebm] to bend it a step and a half to bring
it up to a D [Bb] note. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
And while I'm bending that B string, _ this one [Ebm] here, you can see the G string, you can
barely see it, it's coming up with it.
But you've got [F] to just roll your finger to grab that and strike it once and drop it down.
It's [Eb] not an easy riff.
[Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Eb] _ Okay, so that was the first one.
So it's [Bb] one time on the B [Abm] string, _ _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ _
five [C] times bending it a step and a [Bb] half.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
That's the [Gb] first part of the riff [Ab] game.
_ _ [Eb] _
_ _ [Gbm] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
[Gb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[B] _ _ _ [Abm] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
_ _ [Gb] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
[Db] _ _ _ [Dbm] _ _ _ [Bb] _
Let me try it [B] one more time.
That might be [F] the best it's going to get [Bb] with three fingers. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ [Db] _ _ _ [Dbm] _ _ _ _
[Gb] _ _ _ [B] _ _ [Abm] _ _ [Bb] _
_ _ _ _ [Gbm] _ _ _ _
_ [Db] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[B] _ [N] That wasn't too bad.
It was pretty close.
I mean the notes were accurate but playing it slow doesn't really sound right.
[Gm] I'll try it with four fingers for you four finger [Gb] players.
I don't think there's too many out there.
_ _ _ And [Ab] alrighty, so here we go.
_ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _
Let's do it slow. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Db] _ _ _ _
_ _ [Gb] _ _ _ [B] _ _ [Gb] _
_ _ _ [B] _ _ [Abm] _ _ _
_ _ _ [Gbm] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Db] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Gb] _ That's basically it.
That's the intro to Jack and Jill.
_ _ _ _ So that should do it.
I think the solo, I'm going off the top of my head so please don't take this as the way
it's supposed to be.
_ [Bb] _ So_ _
[E] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Abm] _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ _ _ [Abm] _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _
_ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ [Ebm] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ [A] _ [E] Something like that.
Okay?
So that's pretty much how the solo starts off.
I'm sure the ending wasn't [F] exactly right.
But _ _ the main riff, the first riff is_
[Bb] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Em] _ _ [B] _ _ [Gbm] _ _ _ [Gb] _
_ [B] _ _ [Ab] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
[Db] _ _ _ [E] _ One too many there.
It's only three bends on that last note which is a B flat.
[Bb] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Gb] And you slide it _ up to a_ _ _ _ _
[Bbm] _ _ _ Instead we are up.
That hurts like hell. _
[Ebm] I'll try to play it slow one more time.
[Ab] _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Abm] _ _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _ _
[Gb] _ _ [E] _ _ [Gb] _ _ _ _
[B] _ [Abm] _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _
_ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _ [Db] _
_ _ [E] _ _ [Db] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Gb] _ Hope that helps you out guys.
I really do.
I think I'm going to do a little bit of sympathy next.
Alrighty, so _ stay tuned and I really do hope that helped.
Take care
