Okay, an old 70's song from the Spirit that I'm sure you've heard before, but maybe you didn't know it was the Spirit [E] because I didn't know until I heard it.
A quick little demo and then we'll break down. _ _ _ _

_ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [A] _ [G#] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [A] _ [C#m] _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ [C#m] _ _ _ _

[B] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [G#] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Okay, let's break that down.
[Em] It starts off [A] _ with an A chord. _ _ _
You'll see a bunch of, [F#] there's a couple of lessons on YouTube.
I feel a little different from those [E] lessons.
I'm just putting third and fourth string on the second fret.
_ [Am] And then I'm using my pinky finger, and use your pinky finger, I'll show you why in a minute, to [B] bar _ _ _ [F#] the third string on the fourth [E] fret.
_ And I want to get [F#] the second, first and second strings [Am] ringing open.
[E] So I strike the A note. _
_ _ _ _ Try that again, strike the A note.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ So I'm just hammering [G] on the third string on the fourth [E] fret. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[A] _ I suppose you can do it this way if you're having a hard time keeping the [E] first and second open.
_ _ _ _ _ It's [Em] important not to bar [Bm] the, _ [E] you're not going, [B] _
_ you're just hitting the third string there. _ _
It _ _ _ doesn't sound too bad like that.
I kind of like it open. _ _ _ _ _ _
So the reason I'm [A] saying use the pinky finger is you're going to have to hit, [F#] and whether it's [F#m] implied or it's there or not, maybe it's [E] just hearing things.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [A] _
That's C sharp. _ _ _ _
Before it goes into the A flat chord.
So, [E] I'll show you what I mean. _ _ _ _ _ _
[A] _ That's a C sharp note.
And [F#] then go into your A [D#] flat chord.
_ _ _ [G#] _ _ _ _
So it makes it [E] easier as opposed to going. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
[D#] _ _ [G#] _ Which you can do I suppose [Am] if you want, but I find it easier to use my [F#] hammer on finger. _ _
_ _ [F#m] _ And it's already in position for the A [D#] flat chord.
_ _ [F#] So that finger strikes that note first and as [F#m] it's coming to hit that, that's buying me some time until the rest of the fingers catch up [G#] and. _
_ [G#] _ _ And then right to the A.
So again, [E] A. And.
_ _ _ Everyone through training for. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ And it's open. _
_ _ _ [E] _ I'm on the third string.
[A] _
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ [G#] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [C#m] _ C sharp.
_ [A] _
_ To _ [C#] C sharp.
[A] _
A. To [B] B.
And then you go [E] into a E.
_ _ _ [B] To B. _
[A] _ A. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ And that's the chord.
So [E] basically you're at A with the hammer on.
_ [G#] And then A.
_ The A flat.
To the A.
_ _ Chorus.
[C#m]
C sharp minor.
_ It's nature's [A] way of receiving you.
[B] _ B.
[A] Back to C sharp [C#m] minor. _
_ _ [A] To the [B] A.
To the B.
[E]
E.
_ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _

[D] Anyway, good campfire [Cm] song.
Pretty easy to learn.
