Chords for Jon Herington of Steely Dan plays their classics with AmpliTube iRig

[C] _ _ _ _ _ [Bbm] Hi, I'm John Harrington.
_ Most recently been working with Steely Dan over the last 10 years
or [Eb] so.
That's pretty much my biggest gig.
We average a tour every 3 years or so and
then for the last several years we've been out pretty much every Sunday.
[Gm] The iRig is
just this little thing where the guitar plugs into.
Got an output that goes into the [Gb] iPhone
[Eb] and then the output that comes out and I'm sending it _ to a direct box and we're recording
into Pro Tools this way.
So we _ get lots of different sounds around the way.
This is one
_ you might recognize.
Beginning of A Million Years, which is a tune we've been doing recently
live _ _ on the iRig.
A little sound I set up for [Em] it.
_ _ [D] _ [Em] _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ [Gbm] _ [B] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ [G] _ This is Black Cow, [Eb] another tune _ [Em] from
the record [Eb] Asia. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Am] _ [Gm] _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ [Gm] _ _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ [N] It goes on like that.
But it's just a simple rhythm guitar sound and
for that one, _ I've got it saved as a preset but it's just this clean [Eb] black bass amp sound.
_ _ _ And _ you've got an array of controls you can dial. _
[A] _ _ [Em] _ _ Pretty cool. _
You can see the _ _ _ authentic
_ _ _ _ Tremolo sound.
_ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Em] _ _ Very much like a real black bass amp.
And that's a perfect sound for,
without [Eb] the Tremolo, I mean it's a perfect sound for an awful lot of the rhythm guitar
stuff.
_ _ [G] _
So I guess I've got a Flanger sound dialed in on the rhythm [Eb] guitar sound.
Beginning
of Peg. _ _ _
_ [Gm] _ _ _ _ [G] The _
_ [Gbm] _ _ _ _ _ [Gm] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _
solo sound of Peg.
_ _ _ [G] _
I'm _ [Bb] _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ [D] _ _ [Db] _ _ [Gm] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Cm] _ [G] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ going to try to dial [Gm] in the sound for Don't Take Me
Alive.
We've got the distortion, [Eb] _ black distortion.
I've got the gain up a little more than it
was before. _ _
[Gm] This is fun to play live.
_ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [F] _ _ [Eb] _ _ [G] _
_ _ [Cm] _ _ _ _ _ [Gm] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ [Gm] _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ [Bm] I'm pretty [Eb] excited I'm going to take this with
me on the restraint of the Sunday.
And this is my practice [Bb] amp in the _ pillar.
I actually
had some music to get together for a tour that's happening in August through the beginning
of October.
The Dukes of September Rhythm Review _ _ is a triple build basically featuring
Donald [Gb] Figg and Bob [Bb] Skaggs and Michael McDonald.
_ But all at the same [Eb] time, not like three separate
acts on one band.
_ [Bb] _ _ We're going to do a few hits of each of the guys, _ from each of the
guys, but mostly it's going to be like old soul, R&B and rock and roll kids.
[Eb] They've
got their keys on and everything.
_ _ It should be a blast.
_ [Gm] _ _
So enjoy the iRig and _ please check
into johnherrington.com and look for a new CD coming up soon called Shine Shine Shine
and that will be available on cdbaby.com. _ _ Another record, Like So, is available there.
It's all over.
Tune [Eb] in.
Check it out.
