[Bb]
[Cm]
[Gm] [Eb]
[N] So this is the first lick of three I'm going to do on Gary Moore.
And all three of them are like speed licks that I picked up off of a video you can see
online on YouTube, Gary Moore Blues Lessons.
He plays his ES [E]-335 and he's such a great [Gb] player.
He just rips these licks off like it's nothing.
But to us normal guys, it's pretty mind-blowing because he's just so clean and so [G] fast.
[Gm] [C]
So I mean I can [Dm] never play as fast as Gary Moore and very few people can.
He's just, he's fast.
So but what we can do is we can get [E] close and we can see [Ab] exactly, well not exactly,
but we can get a [G] rough idea of what [E] he's doing to get those kind of [Eb] sounds.
The way that lick starts is kind of the key to [Em] it, okay?
You know [B] you've got your basic blues [Cm] thing and then he goes [E] into that flashy stuff.
So [Cm]
okay, so I'm [Em] only picking three times there.
I'm going to pick [C] that E string and hammer on [Cm] everything else [Gm]
and [C] pick here.
[D]
[Ab] [Cm]
[E] So that's what you want to practice right [Cm] there and
[E]
try and get that as fast as you can.
[Cm]
[E]
Okay, because it just does it again.
[Cm]
[Bb] [E]
And then the rest of it is just [Eb] kind of that,
[A] [Bb] I think I, [G] there's that blues note in there
too.
[Cm] So yeah, [Gm] [Ab] [Eb]
[E] [Db]
[C] [Cm]
[Bb]
[Ab]
[Cm] [Gm] [Gb]
[Eb] [B] that's the basic idea.
These licks are more, I mean they're [C] super feel licks.
So the [E] notes can change, you know, but just that basic idea is there and the way to start
it is key.
[Cm]
[E] That's the thing to [Gm] practice.
[Cm]
[E] Okay, and remember that's pretty, well all [N] hammer-ons, there's very little picking going
on there, okay?
All right, yeah, Gary Moore, what can you say?
Nobody plays, Speed looks like Gary Moore.
Unbelievable guitar player.
Okay, all right, hope you got something out of it.
We'll see ya.
