Chords for Linus and Lucy Tutorial

_ _ Hi guys, this is a this is gonna be a tutorial for Linus and Lucy or the peanuts theme from Charlie Brown _ _ _ _
_ _ I'll start with the left hand _
_ _ _ _ You're gonna start on a G flat here _ _
_ And you're just going D sharp _ and G sharp up here or uh yeah G sharp A flat whatever _ just _ _ _ like that
_ _ [A] _ Then you're going
[Gb] _ Instead [G] of the G sharp here you're hitting [Ab] the F
_ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[F] _ _ [G] So as you notice the timing is a little bit funky you stay you stay on the low G sharp down here longer than you
Do the [Ab] other two notes _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
So I just practice that's a little jazzy _
_ _ [Ab] After you go through that once _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _
The [C] right hand starts.
I'll go ahead teach you the notes and then I'll try and help you fit them together Anyway _ _ _
_ [Ab] C and G sharp here _ and
and if you can reach you can do this and
_ _ _ _ _ _ That's C and G [Eb] sharp D sharp and a sharp
[Ab] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ The tune of this all goes _ _ _
With _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ the left hand you're gonna be starting at the same time _ _ _
But you have to basically practice this for a [D] long time
You can keep the beat while you're doing the right hand because otherwise it's it's impossible
You you have to practice left hand for quite a while
So once you have the little jazzy rhythm down with the left hand you can start trying to play it together
And it took me a while to get it right, but but you should be able to do it if you keep practicing
[Ab] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [B] _ _ _ _ Now that part [G] you're going [Abm] B and G sharp up here and your left [B] hand moves up to B _ _
sharp B and _ _ _
that's
_ _ your left hand assuming
_ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _
So it's moving the B down to a [B] G sharp the second time _ _ _ _ _ _
[Ab] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
_ _ [Abm] _ B [Eb] and G sharp and then D sharp and a sharp and then
_ _ [Abm] _ _ [B] _
_ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [B] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Ab] _ And then you're just doing C sharp and G sharp and then D sharp and A sharp _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ And and that's the the first piece
_ _ all right, so after you've practiced the left hand right hand rhythm getting the
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [F] _ _ Getting that rhythm down after that [C] you start with the
_ _ _ _ _ That part all right, so that's gonna start [Db] with _ _ _
Right here you have _ _ _
C sharp octaves left hand and
On _ a C sharp inversion which is F, G sharp _ and C sharp _ _
_ [Eb] _ So you're just moving everything up
_ _ [Db] whole step here
_ [Eb] _ _
Everything goes through big big and then in the right hand it's G, A sharp and D sharp and D sharp to the [Db] left hand
_ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _
[Dm] All right, so then after you're doing that at the end of the thing in the first piece it'll sound something [Ab] like this _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [B] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Db] _
_ [Eb] _ _ [Db] Just like that
Then after that your left hand is going to do a slide with a grace note here D sharp and [D] F _
_ _ To G sharp
[Eb] _ _
_ _ _ [G] Sorry, it's it's it's [C] D sharp to F and then G sharp so it's kind of like _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
You can add your own style to this.
It's not a specific _ _
_ Alright, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [A] so after you've done that then you're gonna hit [Ab] a G sharp down here
_ [Db] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _
_ [Db] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
_ _ and go back to the beginning
And you're gonna hit that three times _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _
_ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Db] _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Bb] _
_ _ [Db] _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
_ [Db] _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _
_ There and go [Ab] back to _ _ _ or [F] _ _ _ [Db] _ _
let's see here
_ _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Db] _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _
If you're ending on [Ab] a C up here you can always go back [G] to the beginning
But if you're doing _ [Eb] _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ C up here and on a C you can go back to the beginning _ _ _ _
_ [F] _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ [N]
And then you can just end on a A sharp chord there _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
That's about it.
It's a pretty simple song.
I hope this tutorial helped you learn it.
If there's anything that you need me to go back over because I kind of sped through it, _
I'll go ahead and play the song like that just so you can see how many times we played the same and things like [Ab] that. _ _ _ _ _ _
