A letter then a slash then a letter means:First letter is name of the chord.Slash indicates that the next letter is the bass of the chord.So E/D would be an E chord with a D note as the bass or lowest note.

The introduction to 8 Days a Week is: 4/4 ||: D | E/D | G/D | D : ||

Notice that the same fingeringapplies to many chords.

Introduction and ending for 8 Days a Week.

D E/D (E with a D Bass) G/D (G with a D bass)

Same for Guitar 2. Leave 1st and 4th string open as drones.

Timbre (tonal) differences• Notice the difference in sound when you play close to

the bridge compared to over the sound hole on your guitar.

• The reason is that when you play over the bridge the overtones are sounding louder and the fundamental (note you play) are softer in volume.

• Overtones are the multiples of the fundamental tone. For example, if you played an A = 440 Hz. Then the overtones would be 880 (2X), 1320 (3X), 1760 (4X), 2200 (5X) etc.

• The closer you play to the bridge the louder those overtones sound and the softer the fundamental sounds.

• For 8 Days a week play over the sound hole until you get to the section starting with an A chord (bridge of the song) then play near the bridge, on the repeat go back to playing over the sound hole.

The Long Black Veil (3:05) (D) Ten years ago on a cold dark night (A) Someone was killed 'neath the town (G) hall lights (D) (D) There were few at the scene but they all agreed (D) That the (A) slayer who ran looked a lot (G) like me (D) She (G) walks these hills (D) in a (G) long black veil (D) She (G) visits my grave (D) when the (G) night winds wail (D) Nobody knows (G) nobody sees (D) (G) Nobody (A) knows but me (D) The judge said, "Son, what is your alibi If you were somewhere else then you won't have to die." I spoke not a word though it meant my life For I'd been in the arms of my best friend's wife Now the scaffold is high and eternity's near She stood in a crowd and shed not a tear But sometimes at night when the cold wind moans In a long black veil she cries o're my bones She walks these hills in a long black veil She visits my grave when the night winds wail Nobody knows nobody sees Nobody knows but me Nobody knows nobody sees Nobody knows but me

Wish You Were Here

Playing chords without playing the whole chord

Notice the pedal point in holding down the 1st 2 strings. Fingering for all the chords is to use your ring finger on the 2nd string and pinky on the 1st string. Other fingers are obvious once you do that.For Guitar 1 you can play the basic chords of G, Em and Am.

Other chords are all beginning chords. This song should be played in 1st position chords not up the neck.

Intro: Em G Em G Em Asus4 Em Asus4 G G C D Am G So, so you think you can tell, heaven from hell? Blue skies from pain? D C Am Can you tell a green field, from a cold steel rail? A smile from a veil? G C D Do you think you can tell? Did they get you to trade, your heroes for ghosts? Am G D Hot ashes for trees? Hot air for a cool breeze? Cold comfort for change C Am G And did you exchange, a walk-on part in the war, for a lead role in a cage... SOLO: (like Intro) Em G Em G Em Asus4 Em Asus4 G G C D How I wish, how I wish you were here Am G D We're just two lost souls swimming in a fishbowl, year after year C Am Running over the same old ground, what have we found - the same old fears? G Wish you were here

Start with the basic rhythm of the song. See next slide for the strum pattern.

Watch the strum. Make sure that you strum down on the beat

Same rhythm but now picking out individual notes. Do not have to be exact on this and in fact a little loose is good.

This will be for Guitar II students only!

Don’t worry about the strings you hit, just get the basic idea that you don’t play all of them at the same time.

A small bit of analysis shows that Beat one is the entire chord. Let it ring out and don’t stop any notes. It actually sounds throughout the measure. Notice how beats 1 and 3 are really strong! Then the rhythm pattern.

Here it is with the counting and patterns.

Guitar Intro just Em for the 1st measure and G for the 2nd measure.

Play That’ll Be The Day

• In book.

That’ll Be The Day

Good riffs and parts playing.

Introduction

• This is a classic Robert Johnson Dominant Diminished Turnaround used as an introduction.

• Chords (if played to it would be)4/4 ||: A A7 D Dm6 | A F7 E7 E7 : ||

Either of these works fine.

Take your time and learn this.

Play it on page 284 of the book.

Solo Analysis

• Notice how much the chords are used on this!!

• Scales are the A mixolydian and the A blues scale. Hope this is beginning to make some sense to you.

• Again I don’t think you can all get this during this term, but some of you can and the rest can work on it at a later date (like over the summer)!

Arpeggio fingerpicking

• Arpeggio means “broken chord”. An arpeggio is just playing the chord as individual notes. There are many different arpeggios that can be played.

• We will start with a simple one. But first must review the correct right hand position.

Basic Arpeggio for ¾ Time

Count What you play1 Thumb hits the 5th string& Index finger plays the 3rd string2 Middle finger plays the 2nd string& Ring finger plays the 1st string.3 Middle finger plays the 2nd string & Index finger plays the 3rd string

'Twas grace, that taught my heart to fear, And grace my fears relieved. How precious did that grace appear, The hour I first believed.

Through many dangers, toils and snares,I have already come. 'Tis grace hath brought me safe, thus far, And grace will lead me home.

When we've been there ten thousand years,bright shining as the sun, We've no less days to sing God's praise, Than when we first begun.

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound, That saved a wretch like me. I once was lost, but now am found, Was blind, but now I see.

Take this song very slowly. Chord progression repeats for each verse.This is in the key of D. One way to tell is that the first and last chords are both ‘D’,

The F ChordFor this chord the index finger will do what iscalled a ½ barre. It will play the notes on the1st and 2nd string. The key to this is to play in such a way that the 1st finger holds down thenotes on the 1st and 2nd strings. You should playslightly off of the side of the index finger. Do notplay the 5th or 6th strings.

This chord will take some time to master. Take your time and just workon it slowly. Don’t worry if at first you don’t get all the notes clear. Thatwill come with time.

Start by playing the following:

4/4 ||: C | | F | : ||

4/4 ||: C | F | C | F : ||

See how the E with 2nd, 3rd and 4th fingers is just moved up 1 fret then barre the 1st fret and you have a F chord. This is the E form of CAGED.

House of the Rising Sun Am C D F Am E7 Am E7 Am C D F There is a house in New Orleans, Am C E7 E7 They call the Rising Sun Am C D F And It's been the ruin of many a poor boy Am E Am C D F Am E7 Am E7 And God, I know, I'm one Am C D F etc. My mother was a tailor She sewed my new blue jeans My father was a gambling man Down in New Orleans And the only things a gambler needs Is a suitcase and a trunk And the only time he's satisfied Is when he's all a-drunk

Notice how this is like both the fingering for C and F chords. The 2nd and 3rd finger keep the same relationships but on differentstrings. The index is also on the first fret on all 3 chords but on different strings.

Just 3 chords

• The only chords in this are C, F and G7

• The C and F chords should be played as 2 beats each to start and the G7 as 4 beats.

The idea is to play this holding the chord down.Hold a C chord – then hit the 5th string on beat #1.On beat 2 play the 4th string and on the and after2 play the 3rd string. This will mean that you are playing the correct frets.

Now switch to the F chord. On beat 3 play the 4th string, on the & after beat 3 play the 3rd string. For this you do not have toBarre the 1st fret as you will not be hitting it. So the strategy is to just move the 2nd and 3rd fingers as a group from the 5th and 4th stringsRespectively to the 4th and 3rd strings.

G7

On the & after beat 4 of the first measure change to a G7 chord. Start by playing the 3rd string then play the 6th string on beat 1 of the 2nd measureto the 5th string on the & to the 4th string open. This whole thing up to this point is played with just holding the chords down and then pickingout the correct string. For the 3rd beat on is slightly different., play the 4th string 3rd fret on the 3rd beat and then on the & after 3, on beat 4 play the 4th string 2nd fret and end on the 4th string open. Note on the G7 how the 2nd and 3rd finger have the same relationship as on the C and the F chords. Those fingers stay in that relationship through most of this piece.

Play these notes individually. Start with the 4th string 3rd fret – 2 times then 4th string 2nd fret then 4th string open. Then repeat the whole sequenced

Now put it all together!

Now work on it!

• If two people are playing have the one person play the guitar part on the previous slide and the other just play the chords.

• Both need to do the anticipation of the G7 on the last beat of the 1st measure.

• Some players play an F chord on the 2nd part of the 2nd measure. Make sure whoever you play with does the same chord changes that you do!

Just 3 chords

• The only chords in this are C, F and G7

• The C and F chords should be played as 2 beats each to start and the G7 as 4 beats.

• Once that is mastered the F chord should be played for 1 ½ beats and the G7 should come in a ½ beat early as shown below:

Start with the pickup (notes before the 1st complete measure. Play the 6th string 3rd fret on the & after beat 3, then on beat4 play the 5th string open (no fingers), on the & after 4 play the 5th string 2nd fret. This is a run that is done when a G or G7 chordchanges to a C chord.

G7

On the & after beat 4 of the first measure change to a G7 chord. Start by playing the 2nd and 3rd strings (Open), then play the 6th string on beats 1 through the and after 3of the 2nd measure. Play these as 5 consecutive 1/8th notes. Play them staccato (means detached), byRocking the 3rd finger off and on the string immediately after hitting the note. Then again play the 5th string open to the 5th string 2nd fret and Repeat to the C chord (repeat sign).Note on the G7 how the 2nd and 3rd finger have the same relationship as on the C and the F chords. Those fingers stay in that relationship through most of this piece.

Now put it all together. Take it slowly.

Now work on it!

• If two people are playing have the one person play the guitar part on the previous slide and the other just play the chords.

• Both need to do the anticipation of the G7 on the last beat of the 1st measure.

• The Beatles did this in the key of D which is up a whole step or 2 frets. Use a capo on fret 2 in order to play along with the Beatles.

6th string root barre chords. The ‘E’ form moveable chord or CAGED.

• This starts by first having the ‘E’ first position chords down perfectly.

• To change a major ‘E’ chord to a minor ‘Em’ chord lift the 1st finger off of the 3rd string.

• To change a major ‘E’ chord to a dominant 7th chord lift the 3rd finger off and play the 4th string open.

• There is theory behind this. A major chord uses the 1st, 3rd and 5th of a major scale. To make it a minor chord you lower or flat the 3rd degree. To make it a 7th chord you add the 7th and flat it.

Example

• C Major scale 1 = C, 2 = D, 3 = E, 4 = F, 5 = G, 6 = A, 7 = B and 8 = C (Same as 1).

• For C Major 1 = C, 3 = E and 5 = G or the notes C, E and G.

• For C Minor lower or flat the 3rd degree (E) so it will become Eb.

• For C7 add a flat 7 (7 = B) so it is Bb. Notes are C, E, G, and Bb.

For Key of E

• E Major scale 1 = E, 2 = F#, 3 = G#, 4 = A, 5 = B, 6 = C#, 7 = D#.

• For E Major 1 = E, 3 = G# and 5 = B or the notes E, G# and B.

• For E Minor lower or flat the 3rd degree (G#) so it will become G. Flatting a sharp cancels the sharp and the note becomes an natural

• For E7 add a flat 7 (7 = D#) so it is D. Notes are E, G#, B and D.

The first step is to finger the chords without using the index finger.

• For the E major chord. The fingering will be the 2nd finger on the 1st fret of the 3rd string.

• 3rd finger on the 2nd fret of the 5th string.

• 4th finger on the 2nd fret of the 4th string.

E major Form 1 fret up becomes‘F’ major.

The root to this chord is on the 6th string or the 1st string. The names ofthe notes on these strings are the roots of the chord. At the first fret it isAn F, 2nd fret a F# (Gb), 3rd fret is G, 4th fret is G# (Ab), 5th fret is A, 6th fret is Bb (A#), 7th fret is B, 8th fret is C, 9th fret is C# (Db), 10th fret isD, 11th fret is Eb (D#), 12th fret is E.

The letter name stays the same no matter which form is used.

When doing a full barre chorduse more of the side of theindex finger. It is more of aleverage issue than a pressureissue.

See how the E with 2nd, 3rd and 4th fingers is just moved up 1 fret then barre the 1st fret and you have a F chord. This is the E form of CAGED.

Try a simple chord change

• Do two measures of F to 2 measures of G. F is at the 1st fret and G is at the 3rd fret.

• ||: F | | G | | F | | G | : ||• Then do the same thing with G to A (A is at the

5th fret.• ||: G | | A | | G | | A | : ||• Then A to B (B is at the 7th fret).• ||: A | | B | | A | | B | : ||• When the above is mastered try each one of

them with one measure each.

Caged Chords - Shadowed Notes are the Roots

Below are the 5 forms that everything is build off of. You must know all 5 of these 1st position chords to move on. Make sure that you have these down so you don’t even think about them. The rest of what is coming up is derived from these 5 forms! We start with major but dominant and minor are just modifications (small modifications) to this!

For the “C” form only ½ barre it – barre from the 1st to the 3rd string and don’t play the 6th string. For the G form only play the inside 4 strings – don’t play the 1st or 6th string. For the D form, it is best to move the 1st string pitch down 2 octaves to the 6th string and don’t play the 1st string.
