[Ab]
Okay, now that we've done the finger strength and the exercises and you know the baseline,
let's take it nice and slow at 90 beats PM.
Remember, you've got to keep your right hand loose.
You're not going to be able to play fast if you're trying to force it.
So here we go.
Listen to the click and it'll tell you if you're speeding up or slowing down.
Relax and let's play the baseline that I just taught you.
One and two and three and four and.
[A]
Alternate between the first and second fingers with your right hand and be nice and loose.
[Am] Here we go to the F sharp with the first note we play is the E.
Here comes the chromatic
walk up
[Ab] [A] back the same riff in A.
Come to the rhythm, C to D, E to E, back to our line in

And for fun, [Abm] remember we're adding that [A] chromatic walk up?
[Gb]
[Ab] Let's do it [A] again.
So you see I'm alternating my fingers.
I like to start with my [A] first finger,
[Am] open E, hanging on F sharp.
Here comes the walk up.
[Ab] [A] See there I used one finger per string, but if you're just beginning, you can use one
finger back to our original line with the walk up.
[F]
Whoo.
How's it feel?
Shake your hand.
Shake your shake your hands out, man.
Again, this is if you're new to this, it's going to be hard like anything else.
It's hard if you haven't worked on it before, but we're gradually and gradually working
up our speed and our strength to get it up to tempo.
If you're having a hard time, man, take your time.
Stop, do something else.
Take a walk.
Make sure there's nothing, no pain, nothing is tight.
Stretch, take a few breaths.
And when you're
