Used to Love Her,
by Guns and Roses, from Lies
This is the first song I ever learned with chords. Fairly simple.
It uses only three basic chords:
D A G
====== ====== ======
|||||| |||||| |||||| <== other fingerings are possible for these
|||1|2 ||111| |1|||| three, but these are the easiest for me.
||||3| |||||| 2||||3
Now strum along with the album, about 5 strums per chord letter in time:
(I'm not sure if my chord/word sync is perfect here, it's been a while)
D A G A
I used to Love her, but I had ...(repeat as necessary)
G A G A G D
She bitched so much, she drove me ...
Or something like that. The order of the chords at Nevada is
accurate, if mine are not.
The album is tuned down 1/2 step. What that means is that each one of
the strings on Izzy's guitar was tuned one semitone lower in pitch than
"standard" (A=440 hz) tuning when playing. So on the album what you actually
hear instead of D A G A, etc is Dflat Aflat Gflat, etc, even though it's
physically played in the exact same way.
b = bend at first note to the pitch of the second note
r = release to second note from the pitch of first note
[] = note is not struck
() = optional note
Tune down 1/2 step
First Solo
