Cosmic Tides (B Section)
Added 2022-08-08 19:12:35 +0000 UTCOkey dokey! Here we go again.
Cosmic Tides has a few different parts, and because it's instrumental none are really a verse or chorus. So I'll call this the B Section. The A Section was covered a while back, search the track title and you'll find it.
Like many of the parts covered on this page, this one is also a funky strumming one. I'd say 50% of the parts are like this, because we try to be a funky band!

The chord progression here is:
Cmin9 - Gmin9 - Cmin9 - Gmin9 - Ebmaj7 - Dmin7 - Ebmaj7 - Fmaj
The minor 9th chords are built upon the standard minor 7th chord that most people learn. For example, here's Cmin7:
8
8
8
8
10
8
Take the top 4 strings of this, and add the note D (which is the 9th) and you've got yourself a nice lil' 9th chord:
10
8
8
8
x
x
The other chords are just the top 4 strings of super common 7th chord shapes.
---
The rhythm on each chord is like:
> > > > > > > > >
d u d u d u d u d u d u d u d u
1 2 3 4
The right hand strums all the 16th notes, but your left hand is dropping down on the above rhythm.

TAB attached, drop any questions down below!

I love the chord progression in this one! Upbeat but also somehow kind of wistful. Minor chords! They contain multitudes
