Hey, welcome back to the channel.
So recently somebody asked me to teach this song by the Dave Clark Five.
It's a song I always loved.
It's fairly simple.
We can get through this really quickly.
Let me just show you how it goes.
[G] We have no capo, so we're just playing as it is.
The song is in G.
We start with a G chord like this, and I play it with these two fingers up.
So we have this on the third fret of the low E string, pinky on the high.
The intro is going to be
[D] just like that.
And that's the pattern.
So we [G] have [D]
first finger now on the first fret of the fourth string, so [G] it's a G augmented.
[B] [Em] Now we slide it up one, so it's a G6.
[A]
[D] Back down to the G [G] augmented,
[B]
[G] and then we start in with the vocal.
Let me just show you that quickly.
[D]
[G] [B] [G] [A]
[G] [B]
[Em] Now we jump right in with the verse.
[G] It's G that G augmented should care [Em] about you.
To a [G] G7.
[Em] What I do here is I go from this, [G] and I swap fingers.
A [Am]-7.
To [Em] [D] a D.
D augmented.
So I'm raising the 5 and the D.
[G] The G.
G augmented.
[C] To C.
[Cm] C minor.
[G] Because A [Am] -7.
[D] D.
[G] G.
[Am] Now let me play that for you.
[G] It's right that I should [Em] care about you.
[G] Try
[C] to make you happy when [G] [D] you're blue.
[G] It's right, it's right [C] to feel the way [Cm] I do.
[G] Because,
[Am] [D] because [G] I love you.
[N] Now we go into the bridge.
And this is strange, the pattern of this song is verse, [Bm] bridge, verse, solo, and then verse is out.
So this is the bridge.
[Am] A-7.
[C] It's wrong [D] to D.
How [G] much a G?
[Em] E minor.
[Am] A minor 7.
When [D] you say these things D.
[A] A7.
You know it makes [D] me blue.
[Am]
It's wrong [D] to say I [G]
don't love you.
[Em]
[Am] Because when [D] you say these things, [A] you know it makes [D] me blue.
[G]
Verse 2.
Give me one kiss and I'll [Em] be happy.
[G]
[Am]
Just to [G] be [D] with you.
[G] Give me, give me [C] the chance to [Cm] be near you.
[G] Because,
[Am] because [D] I [G] love you.
[D#] [D]
[A] [C] Now we play over the organ solo.
Very similar [G] to the intro.
[D] [G] [B]
[G] [A]
[G] [B]
[Bm] That being the difference, we come up to the 7 instead of going back down.
[C#]
[Am] Then A-7.
[D] D.
[G] G.
[D#] E-flat.
[D] D.
[F] [G] I'm going to play that for you one more time.
[D] [G] [B]
[G] [A] [G]
[B] [Am]
[D] [G]
[D#] [D]
[N] Now verse 3.
Verse 3 [F#] is the same as verse 2, except there's an extended [B] tag.
[G] Give me one kiss and I'll [Em] be happy.
[G]
[Am] Just to be [D] with you.
[G] Give me, give me [C] a chance to [Cm]
be near you.
[G] Because,
[Am] because [D] I [G]
love you.
[E]
[Am] Because, [G]
[D] because I [G] love you.
[Bm]
Folks, that is how you play Because by the Dave Clark Five.
This song has always been one of my favorites.
I dig it.
