Hey, what's up you guys?
Marty Schwartz here with Marty Music.
We're gonna learn Stuck in the [Abm] Middle with you.
This is a classic tune, Stealer's Wheel.
And it's brought to you by my wonderful, loving patrons from my Patreon.
So they get to vote on what song I teach next.
We do that once a month.
And this song was picked.
So I want to thank all of those great patrons for that extra support.
And you can check out all the different perks and things in the link below.
All right, let's do it.
I'm [D] gonna teach this to you in standard tuning.
I think the original is in an open D tuning.
But if you're playing a cover of it, standard tuning's gonna work better, especially solo,
I think.
And just most people play in standard tuning.
So it's in D.
And if you grab the seventh fret G and B, and you have the open D with that, you can
get the open A in there too.
And then you move it down a whole [Am] step to the fifth fret.
[Dm] Then [D] you grab the fourth on the G, third on the B, then down a whole step.
And when you end up here, you're playing [Am] a D9, [D] actually.
You've got the open D, the fifth, the seventh, and the nine right there.
So check it out.
[Am]
So I think
Dun, [D] dun, dun, dun.
[G] Dun, [D] dun, dun.
And then what's strange, you know, that intro, it's like, it comes back in on, that riff
comes back in on like the and of the beat.
Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum.
[G] [D]
[Am]
[Db] Now, I would say for the main part of the song, I would play a regular D [D] major.
[G]
[D]
[A] [C] [G]
[D] [Am] [Bm] [Am] [D]
[Dm] You've got a really strong bass, you know, holding that groove down.
But you've got the D [D] chord.
Dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun.
Then G, [G] and more specifically, G7.
Dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun.
[D] And back to the D.
[A] A, however you play A.
A, [C]
[G] C, G.
[D] Here I, D.
And then [Abm] I go into the shapes from [D] the intro for.
Dun, [C] [D] [C] stuck in [G] the [Am] middle.
[D]
[G] [D]
[A] [C] [G]
[D] [Am] [D]
[C] [D]
I'm just thinking the lyrics.
Stuck in the middle with you.
And also keep track of that when it goes through the whole form, the next time when it goes
to that G chord, it's earlier than you would expect.
So it's not necessarily filling the form of a 12 bar blues.
But all you need is the D for the main groove.
And then [G] G.
And it can become G7.
Back to [D] D.
[A] And then A, [C] [G] C, [D] G, D.
And then if you're getting a little fancier with it, [Am] [D]
any shape in that intro,
[E] if you've got the open D [D] ringing out, [Am] you've got that land of [D] D7 basically.
[Em] All right, so there's a [N] bridge, which is the G.
And you can play G and G7, either one, or in [G] combination.
Dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun.
Dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, [D] dun, dun.
D, D, D.
D, D, D.
And [G] dun, dun, dun, dun, dun.
G, G, G, G, G, G, [D] said.
E, E, E, E, E, E, E, [Am] E.
Then A minor 7, which I'm playing this way.
I mean, play that way.
But it's basically 5th fret all the way across, and I'm just muting that A string,
although it could be in there.
So, [D] E.
[Am] Then that A minor 7, back [D] to.
[A] And then one other thing I wanted to point out, which is more of the electric guitar [D] part,
[E] [D] those little triads and so for D major you've got 10th fret high E and B and
then to make it major triad you're adding the 11th fret G there just
stabbing it you know keeping that really tight [A] and then the G you've got right
there on the third fret [G] could add the 7 which is that 6th fret B [Em]
[A] or you could
play the D7 shape for [D] for [G] G7 [A] [B] and so that's 7th fret 6th fret 7th fret [D] so
[E] [D]
all [G]
right [D]
[A]
[C] [G] [D] [C]
[G] [Am] [E] hope you guys enjoyed the lesson once again huge shout out to my
