Okay, so here's shipping it up to Boston for the mandolin.
I'll play it once and then give you some tips.
One, two, three, four.
[E]
[G] [E]
[G] [D]
[B] [A]
[Em]
Okay, [D] so starting out on this third string, the D string, second [E] fret,
[D] open, [E]
[D] [G] [D]
then [Dm] on that D string,
[Em]
second, [D#] fourth,
[G]
[E]
[G] [Em] [D]
[Em] [D]
[E] [C#]
[D] then start again, [C#] second fret, open,
[E] second fret, [D] open, second, [G] fourth, fifth, [A] then [Bm] A string, second fret.
[G]
[F#] [E]
[D] Now, this part.
[N] These are groups of three notes.
The first [G] group,
A string, second fret, then [A] open,
on the D [Em] string.
[Em]
Next group of three notes, open A string,
[D]
and then D string, [G] fifth fret.
Then
[F#] the [C] [G#] last group of three notes,
[G] fifth fret on the D string,
[G#]
[Gm] [Em]
[D]
[Em] [F#m] [G]
[D]
[Em] and the next part you go from this
D string down towards the [G#] floor, one to the A string, second [F#m] fret, same riff.
[A#m]
[A] [F#]
[B]
[G]
First fret on the first string.
Second fret on the first string, I should say.
Pardon me.
[F#]
[B]
[Am] You have the same thing [G#] that you just played on the middle two strings, but now on the first two strings.
Second fret,
first string, [E] open,
[Gm] fifth fret on the A string, and [C] then open E,
[D] [C#]
[F#] the fifth fret [C#] on the A.
[A]
[G#] [C] So it's exactly the same riff that you played on the middle string.
Now you're just doing it on [F#] the first two strings.
[Em] So I'm gonna do it once really slowly, so maybe [N] you can play it with me once you learn it, and
then once more up to speed.
So it's one, that [G] opening chord by the way is an E minor,
which I'm playing is third fret on the first string,
second fret on the second string, and second fret on the third string.
[Em]
Smushed together.
Okay, but
[G] let me [Em] start with the riff.
So if [G] we go one, two, three, [E] [D]
