Can anyone help me with this 5 note walk down. It's in the key of (F).
This is the track and the lick starts at 00.12.

I don't know if I'm picking the wrong strings or the wrong frets,
but I just can't get it right. Sure would appreciate any help.
Thanks to anyone who can help me on this........Carl

I tried figuring this out a week or two ago and had the damnedest time too, there’s something real tricky with this one!

To my ears, it sounded like F-E, D-Db, C. I’m not at a guitar right now to double check, but let me know how that works for you.

It sounds to me like the chords being hit are F, Bb, and C, with a quick half-step drop being added to the F and to the Bb chords, so : F-E, Bb-A, C

Here's a quick tab of what I mean:

Thanks very much Colin and Pete. I tried both and either one will work.
Now all I need to do is make these old hands move at the right tempo.
Sure do appreciate your fast and great help on this. "Lucky"

Carl, where are you at in “East Central IL”, exactly?

I’m in the Peoria area.

Karl, See if this audio teach-in helps. Let me know if you can open it up.
