What's up everyone?
Welcome back to the Aram Nadi YouTube channel.
My name is Aram and I am coming to you today to teach you a Bobby Womack song.
One of my favorites.
It's called That's the Way I Feel About You.
It's a really old song, but man, it just feels so good to play.
And I could play this type of stuff all day.
I think it's really valuable to learn this kind of stuff.
It's got good, really amazing guitar stuff, a fun chord progression,
and it's a great practice tool just to put this track on and just kind of experiment
and get in the pocket and yeah, I could do it all day.

all that good stuff that'll help me out.
But okay, let's get started.
Bobby Womack, That's the Way I Feel About You.
It is in D major.
And I'm thinking D major and my pentatonic box, which is like B minor, D major,
whatever way you want to look at it.
[E] _
_ _ [F#] It's right there.
[D] So here's my one. _
My [Bm] pentatonic box.
_ _ _ [G#] _ This song will start with a little lick and it goes to the four [A] chord.
_ [G] _ _ [E] _
_ [G] _ _ So that's that little lick and goes to a G major seven chord.
And take a note that with that G major seven, I'm going, there's a little bit of movement in it.
_ _ _ [Bm] _ [C#] So I'm hammering on with my pinky on the B string from that 10 to [G] 12 fret.
_ _ [D] _
_ _ _ [G#] Do the same thing again and put that same G major seven chord over the one, which is D.
So that'll technically make like a D6 chord, whatever way you want to look at it.
_ [Em] _ _ [D] _ _ [Bm] _
_ [A] _ _ _ [F#] _ _ [D] _ _
_ [E] The guitar in the actual recording does a single note line like I _ _ _ [G] decided to chord it out.
So I took, I listened to the bass line number one, so I knew what the chords were.
I just followed the bass.
So I knew it was something like I _ [D] _ _ _
_ just applied that melody line within each chord.
So I [G] ended up with.
_ _ _ _ [F#m] _ _ _ [G] _
_ [F#m] _ _ [E] _ _ _ [D] _ _
_ [G] _ _ [F#m] _ _ _ _ [F#m] _
_ _ _ [E] _ _ [D] _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ [F#] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [F#m] _ _ [D] _ _ [A] _
_ [Em] _ _ _ [F#m] And then you can also do this voicing.
_ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ Later in the song, the guitar goes [F#] like. _ _ _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ [D#m]
So now let's talk about that chorus.
The chorus starts on the five.
It's technically a four over five.
So [A] eight, eleven, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ then one, five, [D] _ _ [A] _
_ _ [Bm] six.
_ _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ [A] _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _
[E] Second part will go.
[G] _ _ [D] _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ [A] _ _ _
[B] _ _ _ Second part goes to [G] four, _ _ [A] five, _ _ _ _ [D] then one, _ five.
_ [Bm] _ _
_ Back to the verse.
[G] _ So here's the whole [A] thing.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ [A] _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _ [Em] _
_ [G] _ _ [A] _ _ [B] _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ [Bm] _ _ [F#] The bridge of that song is going to be on the six.
It's going to have a little lick leading up to it like this.
_ _ _ [F#m] _ _ [Bm] _ _ _
[E] So let's just start it off.
Here's the lick. _ _
It lands you right on the six.
[B] _ _ [F#] [A] Three, [B] six, [F#] dominant two, _ [G#] _ _ _
[G] four, _ [D] six, _ [Em] _ _
lick.
_ [B] _ [G#] Then back to the six.
[F#m] Three, _ [Bm] six, _ [E] dominant two, _
_ [Em] _ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
[A] five.
[E] So all together.
[D] _ [B] _ _
[F#m] _ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _
_ _ [Em] _ _ _ [B] _ _ [F#m] _
_ [Bm] _ _ _ [C#m] _ _ [Em] _ _
_ [G] _ _ [A] _ [F#] _ _ _ _
_ [Bm] _ _ [E] _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ [F#m] _ _ [D] _ _ [Bm] So I hope that gives you a good idea of the song.
I know this was a really quick run through,
but I just wanted to put together a quick video.
Just look up the song, play along to it.
It's a lot of fun.
I think it's just a good one to have in your arsenal
