So now we'll take a look at how to play Highway to Hell by ACDC. _
_ _ Alright, so first of all we are in E flat tuning, half step down.
So this one's going to start out with the sort of intro [Db] verse riff.
And that is starting on an A chord.
So you're going to play your A three times [C] and then mute it.
_ _ [N] _ _ Then you're going to play a chord.
I'm not exactly sure what the chord name is, but it's the B string third fret, _ _ G string
second fret, and low E string _ _ _ third fret.
So it's kind of like a backwards G almost.
I don't know.
I don't know what it's called.
But anyways, that's how you fret it.
You're going to hit that three times _ and then, [Gb] _ oh sorry, twice.
You're going to hit it twice.
And then the third time you're going to lift that index finger off of the G string.
[Eb] So, _ _ and then mute.
So _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ with the A you've got _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ repeat.
_ [Ab] _ _ _ [Bb] _ So it's again the A three times.
_ _ [E] _ _ And then that, [Eb] this twice and then lift. _ _
Again, _ again.
_ And then this once, back to [Ab] the A twice.
_ _ [N] And that riff right there repeats throughout the intro and the [Bb] verse.
_ _ [Eb] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Ab] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Ab] _ _ [C] And then on the last time before you lead into the chorus, it goes to, [Ab] it hits that A once.
_ And then you're going to [Eb] go to an E power chord. _ _ _
_ [Em] And you're going to just kind of hit that, kind of [Bb] just chug along on that. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Ab]
So _ [Db] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Eb] _ _ _ [Ab] and that leads into the chorus and the chorus is this.
_ _ [Db] _ _ _
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Gb] _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _
_ _ _ _ [Ab] _ And so that is an A power chord.
So hit _ _ it again. _ _
_ _ And then [F] you're going to go to _ a, what is that, a D power chord?
Yeah, it's a [Db] D. _
_ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _
[Db] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Gb] And you're going to go.
_ [Db] _ _ [E] And what you're doing there is going to, keeping your finger on the third fret on the B string
and then going to the low E third fret.
[Gb] _ _ _ [Db] And then back to that D power chord.
_ And you [Ab] repeat, so with the A.
_ _ [Db] _
_ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _
[Db] _ _ _ [Gb] _ _ _ [Ab] _ _
_ _ [Db] _ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _
_ _ _ [Db] _ _ _ And then you finish on that D power chord there [Ab] and just
let it ring out. _
_ _ And you go back into the verse.
_ [N] _ _ _ And that's pretty much Highway to Hell right there.
