Lær at spille Mr. Jones på guitar

Mr. Jones er en af mine personlige yndlingssange og heldigvis er den forholdsvis let at spille på guitar. Det er endnu engang Marty Schwartz der er underviseren i videoen. Hans videoer har jeg brugt rigtig meget da jeg lærte at spille guitar.

Nedenfor finder du de noter jeg skrev da jeg skulle lære denne sang.

 

Rytme: D D DU D| U U UDU DU 2 akkorder pr. Rytme sekvens.. skift akkord ca. efter DDDU eller DDDUD føl dig frem ;)

 

Akkorder: Am F Dm G og C

 

Intro og vers: Am F Dm G og så Am F G På det sidste G (det efter F akkorden) spiller man hele rytme sekvensen igennem.

 

Omkvæd: C F G x 3 ca.

 

Bridge: Am F Am G spil et nedslag på hver akkord. byg evt. rytmen op så man spiller den sidste del af rytmen på G og fortsætter ind i omkvædet.
