_ _ [F] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
[D] Now chunking is a [A] percussive technique that we're going to be using in our strumming patterns.
It's going to sound like this _
[Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb]
With a strumming pattern it can sound like this
[C] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ Now [Eb] first off we're going to be [F] looking at our thumb and
The side [D] of our thumb right here [Fm] is going to be what's [A] stopping the strings from vibrating
_ So we're going to [Bb] take our normal down up down up strum
So [Ebm] point to yourself and point to the ground when we [Ab] point to the ground you'll notice that your thumb _
[N] _ _ Is positioned [G] perfectly over the strings?
_ So you [F] want to practice? _
Pointing to yourself and pointing down to the ground you're going to practice this
[G] _ Twist of your wrist so that your thumb lands perfectly on the strings like so so [B] practice landing your thumb on the strings
[N] _ _ _ _ _ Just your thumb so _ I'm pointing to myself [B] and pointing down to the ground and stopping the strings with my thumb
[N] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Am] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ Now let's add a down strum [F] to get that chunk sound [Db] the more fingers you use the stronger the chunk sound is going [Eb] to be
So [B] you're going to strum down [Ebm] and you're going to stop it with [Cm] your thumb at the same time
[D] So it's going to sound like this _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
So it's the same form as [Eb] your down strum
So you're going to start up with pointing to yourself
Then pointing down to the ground [A] and once you point down to the ground your thumb is in the right position to [Gb] stop the strings
_ _ [E] _ _ _
_ So almost simultaneously you're going to strum down and stop the strings with your thumb
_ [Bb] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Am] _ _ [N] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ All right folks that was [Fm] chunking [C] make sure [F] to work on this and get it as [D] clean as you can
