Pro Tips:
- Typically for the power chords on the bottom 2 strings, you'd use either your 1st and 3rd fingers, or 1st and 4th. I use my 2nd and 4th, but I don't recommend it (just a weird habit). When you reach for the third power chord on frets 2 and 5, you'll definitely want to use your 1st and 4th fingers since the stretch is wider.
- The big 5 string chord in measure 5 is a G major - it's a big powerful voicing compared to the gentle intimate shape most beginners learn. You'll mute the A string by lightly touching it with the underside of your 2nd finger.
- Everything is down-picked for consistent volume from note to note.
- When the big final chord rings out, swing your right hand into the air for a windmill, or throw your pick into the audience.
Theory:
The scale of this one is A dorian: A - B - C - D - E - F# - G
Dorian is the same as a minor scale, but with a raised 6th. This makes them similar, but the raised 6th makes dorian more triumphant and upbeat sounding. I'm pretty sure this scale makes an appearance in most of our songs.
And here's the chords:
A minor - G major - D major/F# - G major (x3)
A minor - G major - D major

A power chord is made up of a root note and a fifth ^^ There's no Third which is what makes a chord major or minor! An example of a G power chord would be the 3rd fret of the low E string (which is our root G) and 5th fret of the A string (which is the fifth, D).
I love this. Would you please explain what a power chord is??

Ahh, delicious.

Two of my big dreams right here, getting a tone as dynamic and clear as yours, and being thrown one of your picks. XD
Excellent tone all around. What are you using for a chorus on this one? Also was curious which compressor you're using on the cleans. Doing a bit of a pedal board project this month.
yum
big mood
I think this was the first song of yours I learned, my band covered it at our last gig! It's nice to finally know how to play it correctly!

Think I just came alittle...
This riff is *chief kiss* beautiful! Triumphant and upbeat is TWRP to a T. Itβs so cool to learn a nice Dorian scale is one of the secrets that make up that nice positive tone! Hope youβre having a good one! π€

Man, I wish I had more guitar vocab because there's a tone in this that just sounds GOOD but I don't have the words to express what it is. All I know is it makes me want to Go Forth And Do Justice, like, in a very Saturday morning cartoon kind of way. In any case, have a good one, guitar man! See you soon in Phoenix, I can't wait! :D
One of the best songs you guys have!!!
