So, [Db] okay, so C sharp minor is the scale and we're going to find that C sharp on the fourth fret of the A string.
[E]
Now, for the first part of the [Dbm] melody,
[Abm] [Dbm]
[Eb] it's basically two positions, okay?
And we're going to break [Bb] them down [Ab] into those [Eb]
two positions.
The first part, you're going to use your first finger to bar the C sharp and the G sharp on [Db] the low E, both at the fourth fret, okay?
So you're going to downstroke on the C sharp on the A string, upstroke on the G sharp, downstroke again on the C sharp, upstroke, [Eb] and this is going to be on the A string now, on the E flat, downstroke with [B] your pinky [E] on the E.
[Db] [Eb] [E]
[Db] [Eb] [E] [Dbm]
Right?
The
[E] picking might feel a little [Db] awkward because you're starting [Ab] with the down and you're up picking on the E string, which [Db] is a little awkward.
[Eb] [E] So get that in your [Dbm] head, that part of the melody.
[E] [A] Now then, [Db] [Ab] that's the first kind of [Dbm] shape.
Now you're going to basically play an octave of the C sharp and G sharp.
So again, you're going to use your first finger to bar that, and this time on the D and the G string, okay, at the sixth fret.
[Eb]
So [E] when you down pick on that E with your pinky, you're going to move your first finger down [A] to bar the sixth fret [B] of the D and the G, and you're going to keep [Ab] downstrokes.
[Db]
[Eb] [E]
[Db] So the hardest part [E] is going from here [Db] seamlessly to there, but it's just that one move and do it nice and slow and you'll be able to get it.
[E] [Dbm] And then upstroke [N] at the eighth fret of the G string, [Eb] which is an E flat, and you're going to hit that twice and give a little vibrato the second time you hit it.
[G] [A]
[Db] [Eb] [E] [A]
[Eb] [Ab]
Okay, so that's part one.
Now part two, [Db] [Abm] [Db] [Eb]
[Dbm] [Abm] [Db]
[Eb] you've got a really neat little hammer-on double pull-off on the G string.
So we're here on the [A] E flat, the eighth fret of the G string.
[Ab] So you still want to just go ahead and think of your first finger barring the sixth fret on the D and the G, because you're going to play the G sharp sixth fret of the D string [Db]
and [Ab] down pick, down pick [Dbm] [B] that [Ab] bar.
[Db] And then once you get to the G string, you're basically playing sixth, [Eb] [E] eighth, ninth fret, [Db] okay?
So you're going to play the G sharp sixth fret, [Eb]
[A] and [Ab] your first hammer-on is going to be from the eighth to the ninth fret on G string.
[A]
So
[E] it's actually hammer-on to the ninth fret, pull-off between the pinky and ring [A] finger, [Eb] pull-off again between the ring finger and first finger, [D] and [Db] then hammer-on between the first [Eb] finger and third finger.
So all of that [A]
[Eb] neat little lick, [A] [Eb]
all [Bbm] at fret [Eb] six, [Em] eight, [Bb] and [Am] nine on the G string, [Gb] okay?
So that's C sharp, [Eb] [Dbm] E flat, and E.
[Eb] [A] [Eb]
And it [Ab] ends, [Eb] [Dbm] [Eb] again, hitting it twice and adding vibrato at the eighth fret.
So that section together, [Db] [E]
and then you're going to shift [Dbm] position.
[Eb]
[Dbm] [Eb]
[Dbm] [Eb] So [Db] [Eb]
[A] work on that, and next time we'll finish the melody, and let's [Db] see, it [Gbm]
[Ab] goes
[A]
[G] [Cm]
[Db] And then it has this cool little picking out [B] part, which is a good exercise where it [E] [B] does that
Between basically a B major and an E, just arpeggiated fast.
So that's what we'll work on [A] next time, but just work with this nice and slow.
[Db] Basically, you're going to be practicing barring two strings at a time with your first finger in those two positions, okay?
[E] And you're working in C sharp, so just take it nice and slow and have fun with it.
And I'll go ahead and prepare the upstrokes and downstrokes, or just so
Because it's a little tricky with those upstrokes, but we'll just check that out for fluidity and any questions you have with it.
So [N]
[E]
Now, for the first part of the [Dbm] melody,
[Abm] [Dbm]
[Eb] it's basically two positions, okay?

[Db] [Eb] [E]
[Db] [Eb] [E] [Dbm]
Right?

[Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _
Okay, so that's part one. _ _
Now part two, _ [Db] _ [Abm] _ [Db] _ [Eb] _
_ [Dbm] _ _ _ [Abm] _ _ _ [Db] _
[Eb] _ _ _ you've got a really neat little hammer-on double pull-off on the G string. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ So we're here on the [A] E flat, the eighth fret of the G string.
_ _ [Ab] So you still want to just go ahead and think of your first finger barring the sixth fret on the D and the G, _ because you're going to play the G sharp sixth fret of the D string _ _ _ _ _ _ [Db] _
and [Ab] down pick, down pick [Dbm] _ _ [B] that [Ab] bar.
_ _ _ [Db] _ And then once you get to the G string, _ _ you're basically playing sixth, [Eb] [E] eighth, ninth fret, [Db] okay?
So you're going to play the G sharp sixth fret, [Eb] _
_ _ [A] and [Ab] your first hammer-on is going to be from the eighth to the ninth fret on G string.
_ [A] _
_ _ So _ _ _ _
_ _ [E] it's actually hammer-on to the ninth fret, pull-off between the pinky _ and ring [A] finger, _ [Eb] pull-off again between the ring finger and first finger, [D] _ and [Db] then hammer-on between the first [Eb] finger and third finger.
So all of that _ _ _ _ [A] _
[Eb] neat little lick, [A] _ [Eb] _ _ _ _
_ all [Bbm] at fret [Eb] six, [Em] eight, [Bb] and [Am] nine _ on the G string, [Gb] okay?
So that's C sharp, _ [Eb] _ [Dbm] E flat, and E.
_ [Eb] _ [A] _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
And it [Ab] ends, _ _ [Eb] _ [Dbm] [Eb] again, _ _ _ hitting it twice and adding vibrato _ at the eighth fret.
_ So that section together, _ [Db] _ _ _ [E]
and then you're going to shift [Dbm] position.
_ _ [Eb] _
_ _ [Dbm] _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
_ [Dbm] _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] So _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _ work on that, _ _ and next time we'll finish the melody, and let's [Db] see, it _ [Gbm]
[Ab] goes_
_ _ [A] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [Cm] _ _
[Db] _ _ _ And then it has this cool little picking out [B] part, which is a good exercise where it _ [E] _ _ [B] does that_
Between _ basically a B major and an E, just arpeggiated fast.
So that's what we'll work on [A] next time, but _ just work with this nice and slow.
_ _ _ [Db] Basically, you're going to be practicing _ _ _ barring _ two strings at a time with your first finger in those two positions, okay?
_ _ [E] _ And you're working in C sharp, so _ just take it nice and slow and have fun with it.
And _ _ I'll go ahead and prepare the _ _ upstrokes and downstrokes, or _ _ just so_
Because it's a little tricky with those upstrokes, but we'll just check that out for fluidity and any questions you have with it.
So [N]
