How To Play- Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain: By Willie Nelson chords
Start Jamming...
[Bb] Hi, I'm Robbie and this is a [D] request from my cousin Judy.
[Bb] Um, this is called Cryin' in the Rain by Willie [Bbm] Nelson.
[Bb] This is surprisingly a pretty difficult [Gb] song to learn.
At least in [Bb] a couple days.
[Am] At least it was for me, but I'll tell you [A] what, I'll teach it the best way I know.
[Bb] I don't have it fully down yet,
[A] um, [Bb] but I'll teach you how to play it and I'll have you guys put it together.
[A] Because it has little bass runs in there.
[Bb]
Alright, anyway, here we go.
It starts out [E] with the E.
But what he does is, I recommend putting your pinky down, anchoring it.
It just helps with this because, alright, you want to hit the D string.
It's in stroke.
Just like that, and then you want to come up and hit the A string.
Go back to the D.
A.
That's what he does, alright.
[Bb] In the twilight glow I see.
[E]
Then he does this little bass run and it goes on the [A] A string.
It goes, [B]
okay.
[A] What he's doing there is, [Bb] open A, first fret, [B] second fret on the A string.
[Bb] [Bm] Okay.
[A] [B] That's pretty easy.
And then he goes from there until the B.
That's a B.
[A] That's, uh, [Bbm] you mute that [B] chord, mute this string, D string.
And then you have your A.
[Bb] Alright.
And then you put your third D where [B] it's just on a flat four string.
[A]
And your first finger covers the top [B] five strings and meets it.
On the second and fourth fret.
[Bb] So here's what we got, we [E] got.
[B]
Same thing.
[Bbm] It goes back into [E] an E.
And [B] it's like, when we [Bb] kissed, goodbye and departed.
That's the same thing.
[A] E to the little bass run.
[B] To B.
And then it goes, [Bb] I know we'd never meet again.
And it goes.
[B]
[E]
Alright, he finishes on an E.
[Bm] On again.
[A] Alright, and then this is a different [Ab] bass run this time.
It goes from the.
[E] Now you can do it with the last E strum or you can do it just open E.
[F] And then it goes to.
These are next.
F.
[Gb] F [Ab] sharp.
[Bbm] A flat [A] or G sharp.
A. A.
Alright, what I'm doing is going just on the E [E] string.
Open.
[Gb] First.
Second.
[Ab] [A] Fourth.
Fifth.
Okay.
And we'll do this instead of.
[B] If you don't wanna, if you wanna stop right here.
[A] Instead of on the fifth.
Stop right here.
Go straight into the A chord.
Kinda like a bridge, cause there is really no chords in this song.
Okay, just do A low just like a Dime Ember.
He just does A.
And then what he does from there is he goes backwards from what we just did.
[E]
[A] You can also do it like that, but that's kinda hard.
[Ab] Fifth, [Gb] fourth.
[E] Open.
Alright.
And now let's see.
[Bb]
Next one, [A] alright then it goes [E] right into an E.
Back to an A.
This is Only Memories Remain.
It goes into a B7 chord.
[Am] Which is relatively [B] difficult for a B game.
[Eb] [B]
Alright, what's a B7?
A B7 [Bb] is second finger, second fret, second string.
[B]
First [Bb] finger, third string, first fret.
[C] Ring [Bb] finger on the.
Oh I'm sorry I got the [A] strings mixed up, sorry about that.
I was going from top to bottom, which you shouldn't do.
Alright, second finger [B] on the fifth string.
First [Eb] finger on the [B] fourth string, [A] third fret.
Then you have [B] your ring finger [Bb] on the third string, third fret.
And your pinky on [B] the E string, third fret.
So you have the second string in the, yeah you have the second string open.
Little B string and you're [F] muting that.
[B]
Alright, that's a B7, it's relatively difficult.
You could do a B, it's a little easier.
Just understand it's quite the same.
[Bb]
And then at the end of [A] that bass drum, because it goes from E to [Bb] B7.
Only Memories Remain.
The bass drum goes.
[E] And what that is is.
[Bb] This is a B note.
[B] It goes B, [Ab] A, A [Gb] flat, F sharp.
[E]
Or.
[D] [B] 7, [A] 8, 7, 8.
5, [Gb] 4, 2.
[E] Open, but you go.
[B] [A]
[Ab] [Gb] [E]
Then it goes back into an E.
[Gb] And instead of playing that last note, [E] you go right into an E chord.
Alright.
[Bb]
And that's the whole song because it [B] goes into the little solo.
[Bb] It goes [E] from E to B7 one more [Bb] time.
And he gets blue eyes crowned in the rain.
He opens with a [B]
B7.
Oh, you [E] remember.
And then it gets to [Bb] the little solo instrumental thing.
And it goes back into a bridge which [A] starts with an A.
Like we did before.
Just repeats the whole section like we did before.
Alright.
[Bb] And that's the whole song.
I should do [B] it.
I know it's not thorough, [A] but that's about the best I can do for right now.
[Cm] I can have a better one [A] if you need one.
Let me know if this helped you at all or [Bb] didn't.
Because I'll study it more and I'll make it better.
[A] Let me know, really.
