Oh, [N]
Eddie Rivers here, Sleep the Wheel.
Glad to be on Western Swing Rules, it really does to Western [G#] Swing is that.
We're going to go through a thing [F#] here.
It's a simple thing [N] and it's the most useful lick that there could possibly be for the steel guitar.
A lot of guys might know this, but if you're [G#m] playing in the key of E, here's an E, [E]
everything
[G#] [N] between this and two frets down will work.
[B] [G#] [F#]
[D#] Seems pretty [Gm] basic, but if you're trying to figure out any lick that's done this in A6
tuning, straight A6, it's like a C6, but in [F] A, I think it gets a little [F#] meatier, so [A] anything
between these two frets [G#] will work.
We're going to do it in the key of E, and I'm going to do everything between those two
frets [A] for each [E] chord.
There's an A, [N] E, A.
[C#m]
[F#m]
[C#m] [B] [Dm]
[C#] [D]
[G#m] [Em] [D#] [D]
[A#]
[E] See, what's [N] happening here is everything I'm doing is around that lick.
It's not even [G] a lick.
You can put any configuration between these [Gm] two frets and it's going to work.
And if you're trying to figure out [A] a lick that was done in the, say, 40s or [D] 50s, which
is the real heyday, and personally I think it still [G] should be, but that's me.
For western swing music and non-pedal steel guitar, you'll probably find it looking there,
you know, like Texas [D#] Playboy Ray.
[E]
[A#] [E] See what I mean?
[B] [F#m] Hey, [D#m] [D#]
[F#] [D#m]
[G#m] [A] there [A#] you go again.
Me?
[B] [G#m] [Cm]
[C#m] [F#] [N]
Classic, classic.
Endings, [C]
[C#] same thing.
[G] Between these two frets, [F#] that's where it's at.
[F]
You can play whole songs that way.
[C] [D]
[F]
[Gm] [G#m]
[Am] [G#m] [Gm]
[D#] [E] [F]
Any string configuration too.
That's the thing to do.
You mess around with it and find out what it is.
Like Herbie [E] Remington used to do this [Bm] thing.
[D]
[Em] [C#m]
[Bm]
[Am]
It's all in that basic rule.
[E] Just hunt around in there and you're going to find it.
Here it is.
[Bm]
[E] [G]
[D] [C#m]
[G#] [Em] [F#m]
[Em] [E] [Bm]
[D]
[E] So, it's not to get confused on it, it's [F] just that's pretty much the long and the short of it.
Between these two frets, hunt around in there.
If you're looking for a lick, you're probably going to find it under that rule.
[C]
[D]
[F#] [G] [D#m]
[Dm] [D]
[G#] [F#m]
[Cm] [Bm]
[Dm]
So try that, mess around with it, and you'd be amazed what you find.
It'll, [F] just keep in mind, keep it within these two frets, [F#m] everything in there, [G] in one way
or another, will work.
[F] So that's one of the main keys that I've found over the years and it's the most useful [D#] lick there is.
So, good luck with it and thanks for listening to me.
Eddie Rivers here and we got a new [G] CD coming out by the way.
Just got to throw a plug in here.
Eddie Rivers, Plain Talking Man it's called.
You can get that pretty soon.
It'll be available on the Sleep The Wheel website. SleepTheWheel.com.
There's more records, so [Gm] check it out, won't you?
You'll see this lick in there a lot of times.
Thanks for listening to me.
Eddie Rivers here.
So long.

NotesBeta

Let's start jamming Asleep At The Wheel, Leon Rausch - Mean Woman With The Green Eyes chords, practice the chord sequence D, E, A, C#, A, D, C, D, F, Bm and D. A strategic approach would be to train at 67 BPM initially, and then accelerate to the song's tempo of 134. Align the capo with your vocal depth and chord choice, bearing in mind the song's original key: D Major.
