[G] Word up there, bro Brown.
What's going on, Doc?
[A#] Old Middy Man coming at you now.
[Dm] I'm finally going to get a [Bm] chance to try to do this here little tutorial you asked about
about a week or so ago.
I told you that I would try to get it done.
And so now, [A#m] just now I'm trying to get [Bm] to the keyboard.
[D#] Try to make it [E] happen.
[A#] As you know me, [G] I try not, if I'm not doing [D] a Bible study, I don't try to make my words,
I try to make my words be very short.
When it comes to tutorials, we're going to get [G] right to the [Gm] lesson at hand.
The lesson you asked about was [D] Lee William and the Highway QC song called Can't Run.
I did a video [G] about it a while back.
You had requested that I do another tutorial on it in depth.
[D] So I got my trusty little online keyboard here, on screen keyboard, I should say.
So you [E] can see [G] the notes that I use and everything.
Maybe that will help you a little bit to see the [F#] notes up there.
Really the song is not that hard.
You really just got basically the same chords over and [G] over to a degree.
You just got different rhythms, the way you got to use your rhythms.
So you use your ear [A#m] for that.
I can't give you that, but I can give you the chords.
Now, like I said, it's in the key of B major.
[B] [A#] [B] It's in the key of B major.
[A#] [Bm] So [E] now I hope that you know a [B] little something about your numbers.
[E] 1, 4, [B] 5, 5, 1.
[E] [B] 1, 4, 5, 1.
1, 4, [G#] 5, 6.
Those are the numbers.
But believe it or not, [D#] this song will never, it doesn't even touch on the 6th to a degree.
[N] It doesn't.
But I'm going to give you the basics.
So here we go.
I ain't going to use no drum machine.
I'm just going to [E] give it to you basic.
That's the first chord.
You're starting [D#] out to make the intro.
You can make that [A#m] the intro.
Use the last few [D#] words of the chord.
[D] You just [A#] can't get by.
And it goes like [E] this.
You, that's you.
You [B] just [F#] can't [B] get by.
And then it [E] goes.
[F#] [B] That's the first start of the song on the B major chord.
And I'm going to use the split keyboard, [E] bass [B] down here, upper [C#] keyboard there.
So now, like I [E] say, it goes, [B] you [F#] just can't [B] get by.
[E] [F#] [B] Can't [G#] run, [F#] [E] can't hide.
[B]
[E] [B]
[E] [B]
[F#] [B] [F#] [B]
[E] [B]
[E] [B]
[E] [B]
[B] That's the chorus.
That's the chorus.
It's always going to go back to that.
[E] Then it goes.
[F#]
[D#] That's the pickup that goes back into the verse.
[E] You just go.
[F#]
[B] That goes into the [N] verse.
Now believe it or not, the verses, same music.
You just play different rhythm.
Same music, but different rhythm.
Now, I'm going to show you.
I'm going to try to sing a little bit of it if I can remember it.
A little of the verse just to get you to see that this is nothing different.
Chords are the same, but the rhythm of the way you play them is different.
In other words, now here we're going [E] into the verse.
[F#]
[B] Oh, death is [E] like a policeman
[B] [E] Traveling through this [C#m] land
[B] He's serving [E] a death notice
[B] To every [E] woman and man
[B] You're going to [E] need a lawyer
[C#m] [B] If I were you, [E] that's the next thing I'd [B] do
Just as should [E] you sitting here tonight
One [B] day [F#] he's got a warrant [B] for you
[E] For [F#] you know [B] what can't run, like to [E] the can't hide
[B] There ain't no need [E] to try
[B] Don't know when, [E] how he's coming
[F#] You just can't [B] get [E] by
[F#] [B] Can't run, [E] can't hide
[B] Can't run, [E] you can't hide
My mind go [B] back in the [E] Bible day
God [B] sent a voice, and that's all you got to do.
[N] You talk with it and walk with it.
That's the whole song, dog.
I know it sounds complicated, but as you see, nothing complicated about it.
You just got to listen, use your ear, use your different rhythms.
Because the chords are the same.
You are basically using the 1, 4, and the 5.
Point blank, nothing else.
You're vamping on the 1 to the 4, the 1 to the 4 at the very end.
And then in the verse, you're just going from the 1 to the 4, to the 5, and back up to the 1.
That's all you got to do.
Hope that helped out.
If not, just let me know.
Let me know, and if there's anything else I can help you with, we'll certainly do our best to try.
So hope you get this, and let me know [A#] what you think.
Peace and out.
