Hi, Dave Jones here again.
We're going to look at a fantastic song, well I think it is, by The Jam called Das Entertainment.
Absolutely amazing song.
What I'll do is I'll take you through it in the original key that The Jam did it in, which is B flat.
And then if you're a bit of a novice and can't play bar chords because if you do it in the original key it leads to bar chords,
unless you use a capo,
then I'll take you through a slightly simplified version and talk a little bit about a capo.
But just in case you, you know, if you can do all the bar chords and that, I'll just, you won't have to watch it that long,
I'll just take you through the chord sequence.
Well, it's got four chords.
It's got four chords in it.
B flat major, I won't do too much in this, but it's an E bar chord shape at [Gm] sixth fret.
G minor, which is an E minor bar chord shape at the third fret.
And that's the whole, all the verses and virtually the whole song is that, those two chords.
The only time it changes, and when it goes into [Cm] Das Entertainment, C minor, which I'm using an A minor bar chord at the third [D] fret,
and A flat major, I'm using [Ab] an E major bar chord at the fourth fret.
[D] So this is the, this is the chord sequence for the, all the verses and the intro and everything is B flat to G minor,
with this little, I'll talk about the strum in a minute, [Gm]
[Bb]
[Bb] [Gm] etc.
And then it goes into the Das Entertainment [Ab] bit, which is C minor to [Cm] A flat.
Etc.
[Gm] [Bb]
[Gm]
[N] And that's the whole song really.
So
for those of you who can play bar chords, that's really all you need.
So it's B flat to G minor all the time, apart from
repeating C minor, A flat twice, just when they sing Das Entertainment.
Okay, so that's the song basically.
You might notice this little gizmo here.
This is called a capo, for those of you who don't know.
And there, you can buy them quite expensively, 15, 16 pounds, but this one's about three quid and it's more than adequate.
You can get them from any music shop basically.
And what it enables [Bb] you to do is play songs like, for example, Das Entertainment.
If you're a relative novice, if you play, if you play G chord, an E minor chord,
[Cm] an A minor chord and an F chord,
[Ab] small F if you're a relative novice, just that they're all up on the website.
It enables you to play [Ab] songs in their original key before you can perhaps play bar chords, etc.
So if I was to play a G chord, I've put this capo on at the third fret and this capo replaces this white thing called
the nut.
And what happens is if I play a G chord now, notice I'm leaving a one fret space between the capo [Bb] and the G chord.
I'm actually now playing a B flat chord.
Don't worry too much about it.
But you have to leave the same gap as you would leave.
So for argument's sake, if I was to play an E chord there, I wouldn't leave a gap because if I played an E chord,
my first finger would be on the first fret.
So [Gm] if there's a gap there, like there is when you play E minor, you leave the one finger gap.
And it's exactly the same chord sequence.
You'll be in exactly the same key.
You can play along with the jam, [Bb] but you'll be playing a G chord followed by an E [Gm] minor chord for all the verses.
[Gm] And you'll be playing an A minor chord [Ab] followed by an F chord for the That's Entertainment chorus bit twice.
So that would be the [Bb] same thing, same strumming, that's your verses and your chorus would be that, [Ab] [Cm]
[Ab] [Bb] [N] etc.
So that would help you and that can be a help in any song.
If you're a relative novice, you can change the key, especially if you're a singer, it's quite useful.
If you're still learning chord shapes, you can move this capo around.
It gives different chords at different frets.
So yeah, [G] I've taken the capo off now.
Just if you haven't got a capo, you could just play regular G, E minor for the verses [Em] and [Am] A minor, [F]
A minor [N] F for the chorus section.
If you haven't got a capo, you just want to play the song.
I mean, it might not suit if you want to sing, it might not suit your vocal range in Paul Weller's key.
So, you know, any song can be played in any key.
So I hope you found that
