So I've been listening to the new John Legend CD lately and the song PDA is always stuck in my head. I'm a rock-oriented player and I find that figuring out rock basslines is much easier for me than R&B/funk/soul lines. The fills are so much more tighly spaced in R&B and I think I have a problem distinguishing quick notes a half step apart. It's pretty frustrating sometimes. Can anybody help me out on this one? I know it's in E, then it goes to B. Even the basic chord progression would help a lot. This is the style of music I'd like to progress to but it's really unfamiliar territory when it comes to recognzing patterns and such. I can send one of my good-eared brothers a clip if needed. Thanks!
here is the gist: *m after the fret number means MUTE it straight after you play for a very short note *listen for exact timing and figure out the tight funk fills yourself chords: F#, B, F#, B, A#, D# VERSE g- d----------------------4 a-12\------2--1-2--/6 e-----0---4 b- g- d---------------------4--- a--------2m-1-2---/6----- X2 e-0---/4----------------- b- g------------3m---6m-*-6m---8m d- a-/6-4m-2-1----4------------/6---6-6-6\ e- b- BRIDGE roots 3:00 E, B, - C#, F#, B B, E, A, - F#
