Hey gang, today we're [N] going to do CCR's Run Through the Jungle.
A great riff from John Fogerty on that one.
It's basically a one riff song, but oh what a riff it is.
Very cool.
We'll go through this note for now.
It's going to be short and sweet.
[Db] Hey as always, if you like this, click the thumbs [Bm] up [Eb] and if you haven't yet, subscribe
[N] for one of these every week.
We'll see you in just a second. _
_ Alright gang, let's go through this note for note.
First things first, you can download the tab from the link in the description.
It's going to make your life a little bit easier maybe.
Second thing, _ when you're playing this you want to have some fun.
We'll get the basic patterns, we'll do that note for note, but _ I can guarantee Fogerty
didn't play it the same all the time.
Yeah, the recipe is there, but basically you want to be able to be comfortable changing
around a bit.
So, we've got that going. _
_ _ Okay, most importantly, so let's go through this.
Most importantly before we get going is that you want to tune your [Ab] guitar to a drop D.
So that sixth string [D] needs to go to a D. _ _
So just match [Em] your fourth string, [D] right? _ _
Really important because we're going to [Eb] be using a lot of open notes and you want that drone [F] going.
We're going to be pulling off to a lot.
This is a D minor riff.
[A] So, _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [E] _ we're going to be using a lot [Dm] of _ _ [A] _ _ hammer-ons and pull-offs.
Okay, _ so we've got it tuned to a D.
So let's go through this.
Let me play the first [G] line pretty slowly.
_ I'll try and get it right here.
Open, okay, let's just [D] try it. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
[N] Okay we're going to start with that drone on the low D string. _ _
_ Then we're going to play a dyad on the first two strings.
Okay, we're going to play second string first, third string second.
[Am] _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Fm] _ _
[Dm] _ _ _ [A] _ [C] _ [D] _ _
[E] So the key on that one of course is that pull [Ab]-off on the third string from the first.
Okay, let me play this [Gm] one more time slowly and I think we will be able [Dm] to move on.
_ _ [D] _ _
_ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ [C] _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _
Be careful [Ab] with that bend on the fourth string.
You don't want to bend it too much.
You don't want to have [D] nothing _ _ [B] like that.
That's just very subtle.
[D] _ _ _ _ _ _
Alright, here's the second line.
_ _ [Dm] _ _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Alright, so that line, [Ab] _ very similar.
[D] _ _ _ _ [Bb] You don't have to hit that [Ab] bottom bass note.
I'm just doing it to give us the timing.
_ You can, I think it sounds okay if you do, but you don't have to.
Alright, [Am] so the second one would be. _ _ _ _
_ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ So [Gb] it's basically the same, but a couple of times [Ab] we're playing this dyad right here on the second and two strings.
[Am] _ _ _
And [A] then we're playing on the second and two strings, but with our third finger.
Right, or with the third fret on the second. _ _ _ _ _ _
And then we're playing the first [Bb] two strings.
Third on the second, first on the [Dm] first. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ So that's just a D minor chord and we're playing different parts of it.
Right, we're playing the first time we play the first two strings.
_ And then [D] the second two strings. _ _
_ _ _ _ And then this [A] little turn-on.
_ [D] _ _ _ [Gb] Alright, and that's basically it.
That's the basic pattern.
Let's take it [Bb] slowly through the whole two, [Dm] okay? _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ [D] _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ Now there's lots of variations you can play.
You can play [F] just the first, the third [Dm] string in the first.
_ [D] _ That [A] sounds good.
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _
You can play different rhythms.
Like I've got one written out in the tab.
Like this, you can play. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ Alright, something like that.
All works.
Okay gang, hope you enjoyed this one.
Kept it simple.
We'll see you on
