White Line Fever  pedal steel solo Joe Ely version chords
Start Jamming...
So I had to play in a show this White Line Fever and
[D] The band liked this Joe Ely version.
So I was listening to it and it's some really great steel by Lloyd Maynes
And I just thought I'd play the
The chorus and then the solos and then we'll go over some of the stuff you play
[G]
[D]
[A]
[D]
[G]
[D]
[A]
[D] Here's the guitar.
[G]
[D]
[A]
[D] [B]
[D] [G]
[D]
[N] Okay, so
The lick that I wanted to show you on the chorus is they sing White Line Fever and when it comes back to fever
the steel hits a deep sounding
sort
[Ab] of [A] a fill
[D] done on
a low pitch
[A] 6 8 & 10 pedaling on
[D]
And then he does it [Em] again on the second part of the chorus and he [Bbm] moves up
to 5 [A] 6 & 8
[D] So if you listen, you'll hear that and then [N] this let's go to the solo.
So this is in the key D
So we're on fifth fret pedals down
And I'll just play this through [Dm] slowly
So [D]
[Cm]
[Ab] [D] [Em]
[B]
[C] it starts on the 8th string and B pedals in the 8 [A] pedals off
[Bm] 8 7 6 and [B] [Db]
[Abm] we're sliding back from [F] 6 to 5
[D]
And then we're going to go to the [Ab] 4th string
[Bm] [D] So then you slide up to 8 then [Fm] the next part is
So all that is is it's in that B
[Bm] It's in the B pedal down blues scale D, which is two frets
To the open position D [Bb] and then the blues scale is right here
[G] [Abm]
[Fm]
8 [Ab] 5
It's going from 9 to 8 [G] and then we're going to [Fm] 6 [F] from 8 to [B] 7
[D] 7 [C] 8
[D] 7 and then back to the
5th fret with the pedals down and we're going to play those six of these
[Ab]
So that's the third [B] string and the fourth string and you're not doing anything other than sliding [Ab] back
And hitting them again slide the other way [A]
[N] and the next little part is on the fourth [D] and the fifth
So hit the fourth string
pedal off to the fifth
and [G] then the next part is
[Bm]
That's [E]
[Gb] pedaling on the fifth pedal on the fifth then the [F] fourth then pedal [Gb] off the fifth [E] [D] hit [B] the sixth
Seventh and I go back [A] to frets
[D] You could hit [Ab] it down on the [Dm] eighth string and [E] [Bm]
[Dm] then the next part is it's going from D to D 7
So [C] [A] that's just a pedal on with four and five
[D] six
[Db] [C]
Yeah, six but from the fifth to the third and I think he hits the
third string too, [F] and so that's how it's played and I'll try to get some tab up and
Any questions send me an email?
Thanks
