Man of Constanzolo
[N] Gonna do it like Union Station does it so you can look them up on YouTube.
He is
Capo third so the song is in F.
We're playing out of a D
[F] shape here
Okay
[Bb] Nice little song
[C] D G a seven or a good
[F] So we'd use our bass drum style
Okay, and then into a G [Bb] a [C] seven
[F]
okay, it sounds like this first verse
[Bb]
I've seen
[C]
[Gm] All my [F] days
It's their way
Yeah
[Bb] Kentucky
place [C] where I
Was born [F] and raised
The place [C] where he
Was born
[F]
[D] Now there's obviously there's some extra little things we [G] can be doing in here
one of the nice things about playing out of the D shape is that
There's the blues scale that's available to us in here especially
The little part where it's the open a [C] string
You bring your second finger through off the D chord
so open a string third fret on the a string [Eb] and
then D string [F] and third fret on the D string [Ab]
so those little notes you've heard it in
Midnight Rider by the Allman Brothers band this little
[F]
[C]
Okay
That little lick can be used in this song nicely
when you come around at the end of a
phrase the place where
[F] [G]
[F] Give that a little pull there
Okay
Another thing you can do is on your way to the G chord [C] you can walk into that
[Am] [Bb]
Sorrow
you can also
Go from the G to the G sharp
[B] on the on the [C] way the a
[C] Okay, so that all that would sound like this
[F]
[Bb]
[C]
[Cm] [F] [G]
[C]
[G] So [C] on the video they started off like this in constant sorrow
[F] [Fm]
[F]
[C] [Bb]
