Chords for The Best Daily Vocal Warmup with the Singing / Straw

Wondering how to warm up your voice on the daily?
The [F] singing straw is the perfect way to keep your voice in shape.
So [C] today, in this video, I'm going to walk you through my ideal [F] daily singing warm-up.
I'm Whitney Nicole, creator of The Singing [C] Straw, which helps singers and speakers like you develop a healthier, [F] stronger, and more balanced voice.
If you're not familiar with how the singing [C] straw works, head over to our Getting Started tutorial, which I'll link below.
[F] So grab your straw and let's get going. _ _ _
[B] So my ideal warm-up always starts with something long and stretchy.
So let's do a slide going from the bottom of your voice all the way up to the top. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
One more time.
_ _ _ [N] _ _ _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
Awesome.
And we're going to jump to a scale.
This scale I really like.
It's a long octave and a half.
It sounds a little bit like this. _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ [G] _ _ So if I've got low singers or guy singers with me, you guys can go ahead and just drop the octave.
Higher voices, stick with me.
Here we go. _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ [Ab] _
_ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ [Ab] _

[F] _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
[N] Nice job.
Now we're going to do a descending scale that's going to have a little [Gbm] hold in it.
[E] So from right about [A] here, I want you guys to do, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ okay, on the straw.
Here we go. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [B] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Hold it out.
If you get a little vibrato, awesome.

_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [G] Nice job.
Moving to a classic, just this standard _ _ _ arpeggio that so many people do,
but is maximized when you do it on the straw.
So here we go together. _ _ _ _ _ _
