Freight Train - Basic Lick Part 3

Now jump down to chord F. This will be quite hard to do quickly but practice because it will be very useful in lots of other songs. Repeat with the right hand what you did at the end of lesson 5. Use finger 4 (the little finger) of the left hand to jump from string 4 to string 2 to play the melody.

I don't think you will need this - tell me if I am wrong.

 

Change to the full C chord and repeat section 2 of lesson 5.

2
5,43,6,2,4

M
T,T,I,T,M,T

Do the same on the chord of G using your index finger on string 5 to play the melody. Flip back to C for the last note.
That's it!

If you listen to "Song Sample1" you will notice that I put in a few more notes and alter the timing in places. I cannot do this slow enough to analyse. You should not try to copy exactly what I do anyway. Just learn the basics and then add your own flavour.
