Chords for Falling In and Out of Love (Lesson) - Pure Prairie League

_ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ [F#]
Hey all.
_ So I wanted to see how to play the Fallen In And Out Of Love intro to Amy.
And I haven't looked but I suspect there are several thousand guys on YouTube
playing it and [Am] _ I'm guessing mine's not the same as theirs.
_ So take it for what
it's worth.
But the the main [F#] thing is the the first two chords because the rest of
[G] that after that for me gets a little _ _ muddy in terms of what guitar is playing
what and there may be even three [F#m] guitars during that _ _ [D] _
_ _ [F#] section and I can't tell
who's playing what.
[F] So I'm just gonna do a [A] single arrangement [F] of it.
_ The first
chord it's an A and the first chord is this [C#] thing that we've seen down here
most of the time you [D] see it down here.
[A] _ _ _ [D] _
[A] You know that _ that that version of a D
[F#m] chord where you cover the D string at the fourth fret.
[F] Well you move that up
here.
So now it's open A string D string 7 G string [E] 5 B string 6 and open E on the
high [Am] end.
_ And that moves [G] up two frets.
_ _ _ [Bm] _
_ [A] So it starts with this [F] so _
[Am] _ _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _ [A] _
that's _ [F] right [Am] _ _ [F] _
_ _ [Am] _ _ [G] _ _ [Em] _ _
_ _ _ _ [Am] goes
through a bunch of the _ _ [F] _ _ [A] touching words, re, [F] all that part.
[Bm] _ _ [D] _ _ Then it ends on that which is a D
except the high E is open.
So [Am] open D string G and B at 7 [D]
high E string open.
_ [E] To D that part you [A] know I can't hit those notes.
_ _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _
_ _ _ [A] That's the fall in love part.
And I play that as open A
string [A] D string 7 G string 9 B string 10 and don't play that I don't play the
high E.
And I know there there is I believe there's a guitar capo way up
here playing that as a D. _
Like in the opening to get that.
_ _ I think that's a capo up there.
But to do it as to do it on one guitar. _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
So it's again it's that one D at 7 G 9 B 10 then just move down still cover it all the way across at 7.
Your B string is now at 8.
[D] _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] Then take your B string off so now it's D G and B
at 7.
[D] _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ [Am] _ So then after [D] that last one _ [F] _ _ goes back into it again.
_ [G] _
_ _ [F] _ _ [Em] _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ [A] And then I think
there's another one _ [D] _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
[D] _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ and it settles on that first chord again.
[A] And then it's I think.
_ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ [F#] _
Okay so it [F] ends on this _ then _ [A] _ _ it goes this again is the way I'm doing it.
A so [Em] that's an A
chord if you were borrowing it.
But it's only the top part of it except the high E is
open through all these [A] chords. _
So that's open A D 7 G 6 B 5. _
_ _ _ _ [G] _ _ [A] Move that whole thing down [G] too so now you're in G.
[A] A string is still open [Em] high E is still open.
[D] _ _ _ [A] Now this is that same chord shape here except [N] now we are doing it down here in that D position.
So A open [Em]
D 4 G 2 B 3 high [D] E open _ _ [Bm] _ B minor. _
_ _ _ _ Just take off the B _
_ _ [E] _ to E regular E.
And then it [F#] starts _ [D] _ with the actual Amy part of the song.
But that's all the chords for the intro part.
And again you may have to.
_ I haven't taken the time to really listen hard [F#] to what those guitars are [A] doing in there. _
[D] _ _ _ [A] _ [B] So I just found something that works for it ergonomically and musically.
So if you have any trouble let me know but [A] those are the shapes.
_ [G#] Good luck.
[N] _
