I'm not really sure who Danny is or what this song is about, but I had a lot of fun being involved with creating and recording this song!
Read the description below for a breakdown. The TAB is also attached as both a PDF and Guitar Pro file.
---
To create an intimate and dreamy sound, this guitar part is played very high on the neck. The right hand plays the same 4 note figure throughout: 3rd string, 1st string, 2nd string, 1st string (strings are numbered from highest pitched to lowest pitched). This right hand patterns happens irrespective of which chord is happening beneath. Take a moment to get comfortable with that pattern first.
Once you're comfortable with that, you'll be ready to add in the left hand. It plays the following chords:
C# minor - B major - F# minor 7 (x3)
C# minor - B major - G# minor - G# major
Okay, I'd better slow down with all this theory! Here's the TAB for each of these chords below, and I've also written the suggested fingerings beneath.
--12----11----9------
--14----12----10-----
--13----11----9------
------------------------
------------------------
------------------------
1 2 2
3 3 3
2 1 1
The above progression happens 3 times. And then we get:
--12----11----11----11----
--14----12----12----13----
--13----11----13----13----
------------------------------
------------------------------
------------------------------
1 1 1 1
3 2 2 4
2 1 3 3
I break these chords down in the video a little bit at 0:30.
One more thing. Since we only use the top 3 strings in this part, we're going to need to mute the lower 3 strings. You can do this by lighting touching the low strings with the palm of your right hand, and angling it so that it does not mute the high strings.
Enjoy!
