Thanks for a concise and perfect tutorial for this very complex song. Spent an hour trying to learn by ear but realized there was more than just major and minor 7 chords but couldn’t figure it out on my own. You brought it all together here. Thanks for your time to teach this. Very addicted to learning this song and your lesson here makes me wanna go thru the hand cramps to learn it 😹 Thanks a million man!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I love the chords in this song. The combination of them touches something in my brain that I can’t describe - but it’s nice. I was wondering how this would work with guitar - but it does work well.

Super job on another superlative selection.You're absolutely slaying me!! Pardon the sibilance. You have a tutorial for at least five (what I assumed were cleverly obscure, haa) songs that I was ready to heap on Sox/ Celts/Bruins/Garden Concert Fans. Unfortunately in The People's Republic of Boston, "Live" Human gatherings are implicitly illegal. My guess for a long time .A real bad hit for live music. Fortunately you're nailing these dynamite tunes. I've been close but ,like Mr. Nixon, I concede. You're dead on these gems and that's fine with me. It's not fun playing them half assedly chordwise. I love watching Youngins react to these "Time vault " songs. They rang our bell fifty years ago, floor them today and will do the same in another fifty. Once good ears hear them, they want in. For some, there's no going back. Hope the powers that be are sensible about how to handle the live music situation. But I digress. Haaa! Rant over. Great tutorial on another killer cut. '

Thanks Dave. Love this song obviously, I think when he walks the chords down on "never want to make you change" I'm guessing that's in 3/4 time or it's emphasis is there. Also their aren't key changes all over the place as there is ONLY ONE key change. I'm a musical drop out, so thanks.
@DavesGuitarChannel Жыл бұрын
You can look at that section as a bar of 4/4 with a bar of 3/4, however with the feel of the section it might just be seen as a bar of 7/4. As far as key changes go, the first run down is in 3 keys. Gm7 to Fmaj7 we can see as the key of F. Then Ebmaj7 to Dm7 this is the key of Bb. Then the tag on the end is Ab/Bb to Bb, implying the 4 to the 5 movement in the key of Eb.

After the first verse when it goes into the cadence: it’s actually B#11 to Gminor7 over B# or Gm7/b# not b# it’s got more to it than a Straight major bar chord. Everything else seems spot on and you teach it very well and easy to understand.

Did you mean Bb not B#? Also, you are saying that the Bb is a Bb6 or as you like to call it Gm7/Bb. I respectfully disagree. There is no G I can hear in that chord.
