_ _ We need to concentrate on this D minor pentatonic shape. _ _ _ _
[Am] _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ He puts the root _ D down
here on the fifth fret of the A string _ and it's two picks _ _ _ and _ _ [A] that's followed
by a slide up to the twelfth fret on the A string _ and as he goes up [Em] _ I would
suggest you could what you could [Ab] try doing is moving from the [A] first to slide
up [Ab] to the third so you [A] change fingers it's [N] a good technique to get into _
[D] _ then
[A] _ _ [D] _ _ _
[A] _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _
it goes across to the tenth fret _ on the [Dm] G string _ _ _ _ and then it's going to go on
to the twelfth fret of the D [D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
[F] then _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _
_ [Bb] it goes on to _ _ to the E string starts off on
the fifth fret [A] _ and _ [C] _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ [N] it's going to do the same pattern you just moved it over a
string so _ _ _ [A] from fifth _ [E] _
sliding up changing fingers to the _ twelfth _ over to the [C] D _ on
the tenth [Ab] fret _ _ twelfth fret on [A] the A _ _ slide back down _ [C] then _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ _ _ it goes down onto
the G it's third fret [F] on the E string see _ _ that properly _ and [G] _ _ _
_ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _ [Gb] _
that's allowed to
ring out just _ just a moment or so [D] _ _ and then it goes into the come together part
so it's going to go from seventh [C] _ to fifth to third _ [B] back up to the fifth on
_ the E string so _ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ [E] _ _
[D] _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ [D] _ _
_ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
_ [D] _ you _ [F] _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ [Em] _ find this [A] this three main little sort [D] of _ _ little fiddly bits
so the first one _
_ _ [E] _ _ _ is [Dm] _
_ _ _ _ just _ _
[E] _ _ hammering on from 10 to 12 on the [A] G _ _ _ [F] _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ and [D] _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ _ [N] _ _ _ so it goes
through that again ends up going back down to [A] the _ back down to the E string
one thing to note when when he's doing this part of it _ [C] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ [C] _ this [A] _ _
_ _ _ [C] _ just sounds a
little bit sweeter if you bend it _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ [A] and _ _ _ _ _ I reckon that's what what occurred in the
original track _ [C]
so you can do that as well it's just a little _ a curl _ it's not
a half it's just a real just a little _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ [Em] _ _ _ then on the next section it's about to
go into this piece where it hovers _ on it's on the a string fifth fret D before
it does that it does a little run through [D] of this [F] _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ [G] _
_ just _ like that _
_ _ _ [Eb] [G] like a
badabam _
_ _ _ [Ebm] and then straight on to [B] this _ [D] _ _ you _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ might want to roll _ roll your hand on a
little bit just to darken it off and _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ muting it slightly but just makes it a
little bit deeper _ _ _ _ _ _ _ then it goes across onto fifth fret on the [A] E _ and _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
then it
goes back into the main pattern but it [B] does a little trill [D] so _ _
[F] _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _
it's kind of
rolls up _ _ [F] _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ _ [D] and _ _ _
[F] _ _ _ [D] _ [N] _ _ goes back into the main the main pattern _ _ _ _ it runs through that
again there's another come together _ and it ends up going to _ this _ _ this _ basically
on the on the a string on the fifth fret so it's D again _ and _ [Db] it just hovers on
that note and _ it's quite brave _ normally most people want to put like a big
massive sort of you know trill or run or something all over it but it's nice that
it's so confident to just let it rest on one note [D] and it's probably a lot to be
learned from from that _ _ _ so _ _ _ he rests on that the one thing he does though he
tends to _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
there's quite a bit of that seems to be going on _ [Db] and also [D] _ _ [F] _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ _ _ goes up
there [A] _ another once or twice [D] _ _
[E] _ and then it goes through to fade _ so _ that's that will
get you through come together _ _ _ thanks for watching and take care _ _ _ _
