Chords for Tricky Rhythm Help for Boys Of Summer

Hey friends, Hal here, Quail Studios Guitar.
Do you have trouble strumming [Ebm] or with rhythm in any way at all?
Stay with me, and I'll help you out.
I didn't really [Gb] explain on the Boys of Summer video the [Bbm] motive to [Cm] the bridge _
_ _ with the chords two [D] three
_ [C] _ _ _ I didn't [Bb] really explain it and one of my students is having a lot of trouble with it
So let's explain this more in depth
There's actually the motive part or the figure [Cm] that we do here it looks like this _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
and the right hand looks like this
And _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ I'm using a down up [Bb] pick motion like this
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Cm] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
_ _ Now if that's all you need then just go for it and click out
But if you want a little bit more explanation stick around with me
_ So what we do is there's four beats one two three
Let's see it's focusing on that right hand one two three
Four _ one _ _ [Gm] _ _ [Cm] _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Cm] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ so the left hand has [Em] these three notes the e note
I'm using the B string the fifth fret
That's the e [D] note
That's a [C] D note, _ and that's a [Eb] C note right there, so [E] it's going e e [D] d d [Cm] c c e
_ _ [D] e D
[Cm] _
C just like that
_ Let's do it quickly
So _ _ [A] _ [Cm] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Em] what we've got here is four beats [F] and when we subdivide that beat into four little parts
one [Eb] e and a two e and a three e and a four e and a
right it's like _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ That _ _ _
Okay, if I wrote it out _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ That's what it would look like and I just put
One two three four one two three four one two three four [E] one two three four
Just so that you would know that.
That's like
Instead of 1e and a 2e end up 1 2 3 1.
I kind of know if I can do it like this
Let's try it again
One two three four five one two three [Am] four one two three four one two three four one two three [Em] four I did it
1 2 [A] 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4
It's very difficult for me to do, but let's slow it down.
In fact, let's slow it down so long that I'm not going to use down and up strums, I'm just
going to use down strokes, okay?
One [E] two three [D] four, one [Cm] two three [E] four, one two three [Bb] four, one two [Ab] three four.
And then it starts over [E] again.
_ _ _ [D] _
_ [Cm] _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ [Ab] _ [C] Now let's do it with a down and up [Gb] stroke.
I need to do two picks that are muted, _ [E] _ _ _ [D] _
_ [Cm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ [Cm] _ _ okay?
So we do _ [E] E [D] E D [C] D C C [Ab] E _ [D] E D [C] C.
Then it starts over again.
[E] _ _ [D] _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ [Gb] _ _
[Cm] _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _
[C] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _
[Cm] _ _ _ [N] _ Now let's do it really slow.
_ _ _ [E] _ _ _ [D] _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ [Cm] _ _ [E] _ _ Then it starts over again, right?
That last _ _ pick was actually the downbeat of the whole figure again.
_ [A] _ _ [Cm] _
_ _ _ [A] _ [Cm] _ _ _ _
_ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Cm] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [N] I hope this helps. _ _
It's difficult to be able to learn something like that.
_ You have to go really slow and train your muscles to do it in a down and up motion.
If you want to see the video that I did, go to Boys of Summer.
That's the lesson video.
You'll find it in the video guitar lessons _ _ playlist.
If you go to Patreon _ and you click on the posts over there, you will find the Don Hanley
Boys of Summer video there because _ the copyright owners don't like that to be _ _ played on YouTube,
so they block it in 169 countries.
So you'll see the more full video over there at Patreon.
I don't have it as a patron-only video.
I have it as a public video.
You can watch [Bb] that.
I do have the lead [B] sheet for that and any tabs as patron-only.
So if you want those, you have to join [Ab] up.
Okay, [B] thanks for coming.
We'll talk to you later.
Bye. _ _ _ _
