In this lesson we will take a look at the Mr. Big acoustic classic "To Be With You".
Mr. Big's Paul Gilbert keeps his mammoth guitar chops under wraps for most of the song using mostly simple open chords and a couple of barre chords.
In this lesson I do cover the little bass lines he plays in the chorus which make things considerably more difficult, but those aren't really needed to play the song convincingly so you can decide whether to do them or not.
The solo for "To Be With You" contains a liberal use of double and triple stops and is a nice intermediate level challenge for any guitarist willing to attempt it. It truly is a guitar solo that serves the song very well.
So have fun tackling this acoustic classic, I certainly had a lot of fun making the lesson. :) Cheers! Carl..

[@michael-varney-music]

As far as I know... the accompaniment to the solo also has the C#m chord, and in the key change to G the C is a Cadd9 rather than a C major.

[@truckzone]

Big wish more people requested these guys their version of wild world is great too and of course Paul Gilbert i mean dudes awesome player and seems to be cool guy.. thanks for this sensai ... I was learning your billie jean before you posted this think we could get an electric guitar version of billie jean with the solo?
