_ _ Hey [N] guys, it's Karl Brown from Guitar Lessons _ 365.com.
Today we're going to learn how to play Drive by Incubus.
So this is going to be a quick one.
It's got some, _ you know, _ _ _ _ if you're kind of a beginner level, probably some challenging
chords, but there's no bar chords though, so it's easy in that way.
So let's take a look at it here.
We're in standard tuning.
We basically have two _ riffs to learn, two chord progressions.
_ So let's just go through the chords first.
[E] We're going to start with the low E open string, _ _ then the 7th fret on the A, _
_ _ [Em] _ _ 9 on the D [G] string,
_ open G string, _ and then the 8th fret on the [Em] B string.
_ _ _ _ Now the high E string is open there too.
_ _ _ We have those.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Next chord.
_ [E] _ _
_ _ Now this is a little [D] bit of a, [C] might be a little bit of a challenge.
So you might want [N] to bring your thumb up, that'll help you, or really bring your thumb
down [E] and that'll help you too.
So kind of in mid-range it's kind of a hard chord to play. _
_ So this is the 7th fret on the [G] A, 5th fret on the D, _ [Bm] and then 7th fret on the G and the
[E] B.
So we have 7th on the A, G, and B, _ _ _ _ _ and then 5th fret there on the D.
_ [Em] _ _ _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _
Then _ _ _ _ 3rd fret here, this is a C major 7th chord, 3rd [Cm] fret on the 5th [G] string, _ [C] _
3rd fret
on the [G] A string, 5th fret on the D, _
[B] 5th fret on the _ B, I'm sorry, 4th fret on the B, [E] _ 5th
fret on the B.
_ [Em] _ Let's [Eb] go through that again, we're going to [C] cross up.
So 3rd fret on the A, [G] _ 5th fret on the D, [B] 4th fret on the [E] G, 5th fret on the B, _ open
high [C] E.
There we go. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [A] Alright, now you're going to come across and grab the 5th fret on the [G] low E, _ _ 5th fret on
the D, and then hit the open G.
_ _ _ [A] _ _ _ [E] Now you're going to want to use the bottom of your middle finger there to mute the A
[Em] string, _ _ [A] or you can add a little, _ _ _ _ because it's the same note anyway. _ _ _
[Em] Alright, _ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ [Em] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ _ so [E] the rhythm is, he likes to start it with the low E string and the 5th string
kind of muted, [Em] and then _ _ _ _ down, up, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _
then grab the bottom note of this next chord, [G] _ _ _ and that's
being down, down, [E] up again.
_ [Em] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _ [Em] _
_ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
[Ab] And now we're to the C major 7th [C] chord, _ _ _ _ _ and once again, _ _ _ _ he's grabbing this note first,
_ hit [Db] it a couple times, [Cm] sometimes we go to the _ [C] first two bottom strings, or just the
low string twice. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
And then once again, down, down, up. _ _
_ [A] _ [G] _ _ _ _ [A] And then that last chord, the low note hit first, [Bm] _ _
[Bb] and then the down, down, up.
So we [Em] have this. _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _
_ [Em] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ [Em] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ Alright, the next [C] part, _ _
_ _ _ _ [A] _ [E] which is really the pre-chorus of the song, starts with that _ _ C
major 7th, kind of picked the [C] same way, _ _ _
_ _ [A] then move it down, these two fingers, _ down to the _ _
_ _ [B] A7 chord.
So [E] we have the second [E] fret on the D, second fret on the B.
[A] _
A string [Em] is open, G string is open, high E string is [C] open.
_ _ _ _ So [A] just move those fingers down.
_ _ Now as he does this, _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _
he kind of randomly [B] _ moves [E] up that, lifts off the _ pinky, and then puts
it back down.
_ [Em] _ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ [Em] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ [Em] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ So the fourth time, just strum across that chord, and then _ build up with the [E] downstrokes,
_ _ [Em] _
_ [G] _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ [Am] _
_ [G] _ _ and you've got the song down.
Alright, I hope you guys enjoyed it.
