philparker Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 Just out of curiosity, I put the track on - with a guitar in my hand and... Verse: G D A Chorus: G Bm A Bridge: A G Bm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_b Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 I'd say the middle 8 (philparker's bridge section) is A E Bm A E A A way of making what you're playing stand out against a record is to play the line an octave up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philparker Posted July 31, 2016 Share Posted July 31, 2016 [quote name='chris_b' timestamp='1469962768' post='3102280'] I'd say the middle 8 (philparker's bridge section) is A E Bm A E A A way of making what you're playing stand out against a record is to play the line an octave up. [/quote] I've just played through again and I did mean to say that the Bridge, second time around ended in A, so definitely agree with that. As for the middle chord, both G and Em seem to work (playing along with my classical guitar), but of course for a Bass line, both should work also - so I will stand corrected; but I often use 3rd's and 5th's as substitutions when accompanying an acoustic guitar depending on what my ear tells me and what the vocalist is doing!
