Sup everybody. In this lesson we're going to go over and examine gangster's paradise. By Coolio. I started like this three. Okay, so let's break that down. We got two things going on baseline and the right hand chords.
So let's start with the baseline first left hand. A flat f, g c I'll give you the fingers. I'm using and again, you can do whatever you want to, but this is what I'm doing my index finger, ring finger, middle finger and my thumb with the switch. I really don't even pay attention. Seems like that's the easy way to do it. Finger, middle finger.
Okay, so let's go to the right hand. So there's four chords. Okay, and actually before I get to the chords, let's go over the intro part. Okay, so you're hitting all actives again together. Now let's move to the course the bass does the same exact thing the whole time. Okay, and I've seen many videos of this people plan this.
This is the way we're gonna do it. It's all there. My thing about music is you can play it however you really want to play and however you feel it but for these purposes for these videos is how are we gonna do it? So, here we go chords. So the first chord is a flat, a flat, A flat major, actually, second inversion. Okay?
So see a flat in the base. next chord is going to be F minor chord. So I'm playing octaves. top note. So, you're gonna hit C at the same Time The bass is gonna hit F. So let's go to the first chord. second chord.
So did you notice the only two notes that change was these notes here. He said a fact goes to see the state of saying so you really don't have a lot of movement right there. That's no tip. Okay. Third chord is G major second inversion. So you have D, G, B, and C in the base.
I'm sorry g a base. Start from the top chord, C minor, G and C, C in a base. Okay, so let's start from the top and to turn it around and bring it back to the top you can do this So all you're doing is inverting. So you're going from C minor first inversion, first inversion, first inversion to the regular C minor. So, for example, Also, I'm hitting my sustain pedal so really sustains those notes in between each chord. Okay, so let's start from the very top and let's slow it down.
Want to get fancy with it and active with the base? Each No, you won't play an octave lower to note that same time so go ahead and practice on it. see on the next lesson
