_ [Eb] Hey guys, back again with another [Fm] piano tutorial.
This time we're going to go over Smoky Norfolk's I [Ab] Need You Now in Ab. _ _ _
Starts off with the [Db] intro, you're basically doing a Db, _ [Ab] Ab over C, [Bbm] to [Ab] Bb minor, to Ab
over C, [Bb] to a Bbsus, [Eb] to an Ebsus, _ [Ab] to Ab.
So _ you start [Db] off _ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Bbm] _ _ _ _ [Gb] _ [Ab] _ _ _
_ _ [Dm] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
[G] _ [Eb] _ _ _ [Ab] at _ [Ab]
full speed, _ _ _ _ _ _
[Dm] _ [Eb] _ _ _ [Db] _ [Ab] and then the rest of the song is actually pretty simple,
it's only a few chords.
You're going [Db] to be doing a [Eb] Dbmaj7, to Eb, [Fm] to an F minor.
_ _ [Eb] _ _ [Fm] _
Then you're going to go to an [Ebm] Ab13, _ _ and [Db] you're [Fm] [G] doing a lot of basically talking through [Fm] the
scale I call [F] it.
You're playing the melody [Eb] of the Ab scale [Db] while playing the chords on the bottom. _ _
_ _ [Eb] _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
[Fm] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ [Eb] _ _ _
[Fm] _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
[Ab] _ _ _ _ _ [Fm] _ _ [Ab] _
_ _ _ _ [Bbm] _ _ [Ab] _ _
[C] _ _ [Eb] _ So, [Ab] _ _ _
[Db] you're basically playing a Db, [Fm] Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab,
_ [Ebm] _ _
[Db] Ab, Ab, _ [Ab] _ _ Ab, [Bbm]
Ab, Ab, [Ab] Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, _ [Bb] _ Ab, [D] _ _ [Dm] _ Ab, [Eb] _ _ _
[Eb] _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ _
Ab, Ab, _ [Cm] _ _ [Db] Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, [Ab] Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab, Ab
Ab, [Gb] F sharp over Bb, [Ab] Ab [Db] over C, _ you can do some arpeggios, Bb major 7, _ [Eb] _ _ Bb, [Ab] _ _
[Db] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ [G] _ _
[C] so [Fm] _ that's a 7 3 6 _ _
[C] _ _ [Ab] _ _ [Gb] _ okay [E] _
_ _ [Eb] _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
let's [Ab] go through that again [Gb] I [Cm] need you [Db] now _ [Eb] I _ need [Ab] you
now [Db] _ [Ab] I _ [G] [Fm] need you _
[C] _ _ [Cm] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _
[Cm] _ _ [Gb] _ _ [E] _ and _
[Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Fm] _ then back to [Eb] and an hour [Ab] another day but lord I need you [Eb] _ [Bbm] _ right away _
[Ab] _ if I never you
[Fm] needed you before so _
_ _ [Eb] _ _ [Fm] _ a lot of licks he was doing [C] it's _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Db] _
just [G] going up the A [Db] flat scale so when
_ [Eb] _ _
_ [Fm] these are different ways to spice this up [Db] _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ [Fm] _ _ _ _ [Db] all of the things I [Fm] let slip _ [F] _ and a lick you hear
[Cm] _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
[Fm] _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Fm] _ _ [Ab] _ _
_ _ [Fm] _ _ _ _ _ _
and then we go to the next section I [Db] stretch my hands to the come [Ab] rescue me [Bb] I need you right
[Ab] away then we're going to do a 7 3 6 [C] hey hey [Fm] so you can just do an F minor from the agony of being
alone C over E [Em] or [C] E flat diminished I mean E diminished and that's fear of doing things on my
own the [Ab] _ [Eb] test and trials that come to make [Bb] me strong the _ [C] _ [Fm] feelings of guilt hurt shame and defeat
[Em] _ _ _ the wave of trials that beat [Eb] upon me to _ know lord in you I've got [Gb] victor
you go to the F sharp major the [Eb] E to E flat
[Ebm] you do a turnaround [Db] I need you now same chords [Eb] I need [Ab] you now _ [Bbm] I need you
[Fm] right [Eb] _ now
[Gb] not _
[E] _ [Eb] another _ _ _ _ second [Fm] another minute the _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _
[Fm] song ends on a very melancholy little progression here just D
flat E flat _ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _
[Gb] _ [Ab] _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ [Eb] _
[Ab] and _ _ _ [Ab] _ that is I need you
