welcome :rolleyes:

Could anyone play the song like it's in the sheet book? It seems to be very difficult?

Please people, anybody out there who can make a tutorial for this song?

Ok, Ill give it a whirl.... never tried this one, so typing as i listen (and tinker)

 

first i'll say the video (the tutorial one) is ok, but he is missing the 4th chord.

 

Key of Bb (Bb / Eb)

 

as far as the rhythm goes, i find it works well to hit the-

 

LH on the 1st beat

RH on the 2nd beat

 

then repeat the RH on the off beat between the 3rd & 4th beat

and again repeat the RH on the off beat between the 4th & 1st beat of the next

 

for new player- standard 4 count sounds like this 1.2.3.4.1.2.3.4 (say aloud)

off beat as mentioned above sounds like this 1.2.3.and.4.and.1.2.3.and.4.and (say this aloud as well)

 

, it should take the same duration to say both. the off beat is the "and". (this is my suggestion as the basic timing - obviously, over time you will add more LH hits and improvisations to make it sound fuller.)

 

 

 

the main chords (and this may not be what's in the sheet music, but will sound correct)

-are as follows (I will show these now in full and then just mention them by the note as they occur in the song)

 

 

(LH is whatever the main note is (octaves if you can)- so below is mention of RH notes only)

 

this sounds very good and your right hand stays put

 

G

G-Bb-D

 

Eb

G-Bb-Eb

 

Bb

F-Bb-D

 

C

G-C-Eb

 

D

F-A-C-D

 

 

OK here goes

Intro

LH

(Octave) C-Bb-C-D

 

then (chords) Eb- G- C(special C chord with Bb instead of C in RH= G-Bb-Eb)

 

LH

(Octave) C-Bb-C-D

 

then (chords) Eb - F (special, not mentioned above)

LH F_____RH F-Bb-C-F to F-A-C-F

 

verse

G-Eb-Bb-D repeat 4x

 

build up (i could feel it go down)

Eb-Bb-F (F is F-A-C) repeat 3x

 

drop (5 steps)

LH

G-F-Eb-D-C

 

RH

G chord - G chord with F instead of G - Eb - G - C

 

hold the c chord 8 counts

 

guitar solo

same progression as verse

 

repeat

 

bridge (i wonder what it's all about)

Eb-G-C-C repeat 3X Eb-F (with Bb as well as A if you can)

 

(everything i do is wrong)

same as above except repeat Eb to F transition once

 

fade out

Eb-G-C

 

keep in mind, I am writing this out for someone who is wanting to play the piano as the main accompaniment to the vocals. this is not how chris plays the album version, as he is not carrying the bulk of the responsibility of the accompaniment, he is able to add frills and extra bits.

Ok, here's a link that works to a version I guess like you guys are talking about.

 

he goes up an octave with both hands at parts, and uses his left index finger to play the fifth note for just about whatever chord he is playing(a commonly used rolling action CGC for example). he also does some additional improvisation, and i would imagine, he does it differently at every show, so once you get the chords, adding to it as your skill level allows should be the way to go.

I am not following his video either....lol. But the way it sounds at the beginning of the video is correct.

 

What do you want from me... a video? Or a different explanation?

 

Glad to help, let me know.

I would be very happy if you could make a tutorial video for this beautiful song. And i would be very happy if you where the man that could play it correct. Remember the piano version of the hardest part not the album version, but you already know that. please help and answer

Anybody out there who can play the song like this?

Anyone there who can play the chrous? like chris does with the piano?

Have you tried playing the chords? :dozey:

 

It's Eb for the first two bars...then Bb, then F

 

Recently I've been teaching myself talk and THP on the piano, and I find it's a lot easier to start with the chords and melody, figuring out the intricacies yourself instead of trying to exactly imitate Chris.

 

:edit: oh, and the very end of the chorus is:

 

Gm, Gm/F bass, Eb, Gm/D bass, Cm

 

The last time around you end on an F chord.
