| Never thought I'd really listen to Metallica, so just because I'm in a good mood today:
He's not really playing chords, but a melody over open strings.
Basic chord is Em. In the second pattern he playes change notes to that chord of Em over the ground note E, using the open E-string, varying the 5th (which is B). The notes are something like : b b a b c b a b
I would barr string A/D/G at fret 14 and do the melody on G. (16 -14 16 -14 etc,..peace of cake)
The first pattern he plays is chord of D (over the open D). Something like e f# e f# a b a b. (on G, 9 -11 9 -11 14 -16 etc. )
Together he turns them into a kind of Celtic melody that goes like (all are single notes):
(on rootnote E) e b a b c b a b e b a b ba g | (on rootnote D) a_____ (long).
The real problem is of course waving your hair like he does.
Throw in some creativity of your own and have fun. |
