Just a few more licks

Post by Harold Bullard »

Here's a little lick I just took off Chely Wright's song "Shut Up & Drive".

5)_____4~~~~~~~~4C__

And if you turn it over, it don't sound too bad either.

Here's one from Tracy Byrd's "Holdin' Heaven". Play this one real quick.

4)____________________________________13~~13
5)_____15A~~13A_____13~~13A1/2~~13____13~~13A
6)____________________________________13~~13B
7)___________________________________________

And lastly, this could be a good little exercise for a beginner. The faster you play it, the better it sounds. All clean notes, don't let'em ring together.

Hi Harold. I have not heard the song by Chely Wright. But that little lick sure got my inspiration going. I never would have come up with this one by myself. Thanks alot.
