ALL OF ME John Legend Easy Strumming + Fingerstyle Guitar Lesson How To Play @EricBlackmonGuitar Chords

_ _ _ _ _ Welcome to Eric Blackman Music.
_ [Fm] _ _
[Db] I'm so busy, [Ab] don't know what hit me, [Eb] but I'll be [Bbm] _ alright.
My head's _ [Ab] underwater, but [Eb] _ I'm breathing [Bbm] _ fire. _
You're breathing [Ab] and I'm out of [Eb] my mind.
Hi, and welcome to How to Play All of Me by John Legend on acoustic guitar.
The guitar is tuned standard, _ EADGBE, and we have a [F] capo placed at the first fret.
You can learn the chords beforehand by going to Chord Tutorial number _ 158 on this channel.
_ _ First, let's go to the intro and verse [Eb] chords by [Fm] playing E minor, _ _ _ _ _ C, _
[Db] _ _ _ _ _ [Ab] G, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] and D.
_ _ _ And that's going to go something like [Fm] this.
_ _ _ _ [Db] _ _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ [Fm] _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _
_ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Now, for my own personal taste, I like to use a D suspended 2 slash F sharp _ for that last chord,
because it's just a bigger sounding chord.
And if you use that chord, [Fm] it'll sound something like this.
_ _ _ _ [Db] _ _ _ _
[Ab] _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
_ [Fm] Why would [Db] I do without your [Ab] smile?
_ Drawing [Eb] in and you kicking [Fm] me out.
You can make a choice on those chords based on how you'd like it to sound.
Next, we're going to go into a pre-chorus, and there's a chord melody that goes something [Bb] like this.
[Bbm] _
_ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _
_ [Eb] _ _ _ _ [Bbm] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Bbm]
We all rise, our heads under [Ab] _
_ water, [Eb] but I'm breathing _
[Bbm] fire.
_ _ You're [Ab] breathing out [Eb] out of a line.
In order [Ab] to save time in this tutorial, I put together a special tutorial just for that chord transition.
_ There's a link in the video and in the description that will take you to a tutorial that will show you how to play exactly what I played up close.
Alright, next is chorus 1, and it'll go something like this.
All of me loves [Fm] all _ of you.
Love your [Bbm] curves and all your edges.
All your [Db] imperfect _ [Eb] _ imperfections.
[Cm]
First, [Ab] we'll play a G chord twice. _ _
_ _ Here's [Fm] our strumming pattern.
We're going to strum downward _ three strings, _ [Cm] _
and then we're going to use our index finger to [Ab] strum upward. _
And we'll do that twice for our G chord. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ Next, we'll go [F] to E minor 9, _ and we're going to strum three strings.
_ [Cm] _
Then we'll take the index [Ab] finger, strum upward _ twice, _ and then play the third fret on the high E string _ the second time we strum.
So it will [F] go like this.
_ _ [Fm] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ It's [F] going to sound like this.
_ _ [Fm] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Ab] Okay, so that was G, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ E [Fm] minor 9. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Bbm] Then we'll go to A minor 9 and start at the A string and _ [Db] go_
_ _ _ [Bbm] _ _ _
[Db] _ _ _ _ Next, we'll go down to D7, suspended 4, [Db] _ _ _ _ _
_ down and up, [Bb] and then D, _
[Eb] _ _ _ _ strumming from the D string.
_ Like that.
So here's the whole [Ab] thing. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Fm] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Bbm] _
[F] _ _ _ [Bbm] _ _ [Fm] _ _ [Bbm] _
_ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [E] And we will be doing that twice.
Next, we'll go to chorus 2.
_ And in chorus 2, we're going to strum each chord just once, the way we [F] strummed them previously.
_ _ E minor 7, _ _ [Ab] _ _ C add [Db] 9, _ [Ab] _ _ G, _ _ _ _ _ [B] D suspended 2, slash, [Gm] F sharp.
[Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Fm] _
_ _ _ [Db] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _
_ _ _ [Eb] _ Then _ [Fm] _
_ _ _ [Db] _ _ _ _ _
[Ab] _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ [Fm] _
_ _ _ _ [Ab] we'll _ [Eb] _
_ _ go back into the [Fm] song. _ _
_ [Db] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _
_ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _
Alright, and that's how we play All of Me by John Legend on acoustic guitar.
Thanks for stopping by, and [Ab] have a great day.
