Transcript

Morning In this section we're going to take a look at what I call sliding sixth chord introductions. Only a couple of Chuck Berry songs that feature these. One is his novelty tune Anthony boy, which is from the late 1950s. Another kind of silly song but the guitar playing is awesome. And it's in the key of G actually in C. And there's our second position, C barre chord, he kicks it off with a six, slide and the G something like that. Before going into this rollicking alternating bass, second position, C barre chord length.

So what I'm doing there is making the six chord shape first finger on the third fret of the first string, ring finger on the fifth fret of the second string and my second finger on the fourth fret of the third string and I'm sliding from a couple steps below from the first fret to the third fret. And then I'm picking up strokes downstroke. On that last upstroke, I'm sliding it back down to the first and third fret, so this would be an F six, so I'm sliding in from an f6 to a G six. And then we go to this where I'm just playing that same kind of rhythm we played in Maybelline in 30 days, she's in the second position bar court. Now another song that he has where he does like introduction using that sliding six chord. It's a song cabana moon, which is really different.

Kind of a slow Calypso feel to this and it kicks it off with a lick very similar. Now the recording that sounds like it's an A flat, but I'm pretty sure it's in G. I'm going to play it on G and we're going to use the same position so we used an Anthony boy he didn't but he picks it up like this. And then he goes into into the song. Remember the chords on that one. So I'm just doing the same thing sliding from an F six g six, picking it bringing it back to the F six, listen to his song. So those are a couple of ways that he uses the six chords, the sliding six chords that we learned in lesson seven to kick off his songs.
