Fix You Cold Play Guitar Tab 

Ok, so it's not 'fix you' I've already posted it...but...I have noticed that 
you put non specific titles up as well...so....


This is my own creation and has a very catchy jazz/blues style appeal.
It sounds like a typical tune of that type. ( Done to the tshh-ti-ti-
tshh-ti-ti... type of brush rythm. )
I actually composed it 23 years ago, when I was just 17.
I remember the melody taking ages to merge, it looks so simple when written down.
Although I usually play anything from rock to classical, this seems
to crawl out of the woodwork from time to time.
(I'm going through a Coldplay phase just now and have sent you a couple of
detailed tabs that I spent ages working out.)
  
I am sure guitarists of all styles out there would like to try this out,
as it can be a very good learner or 'show-off to the mates' syle tune.
I ommitted the augmented 9th's naming etc to make it less 'scary.'
The chords are basically of the same structure through-out.
It just sounds good and once grasped it's very easy to remember.
Try it and see what you think...

Cheers

Keith McKInlay

whilst still holding the chord position with the other hand.

Blues Licks: Key of C

Blues Licks: Key of C BLUES LICKS “The blues tells a story. Every line of the blues has a meaning.” - John Lee Hooker The Blues first began when some folks working in the field would sing in unison and others would respond to what was being sung. This call and response style has evolved into the sing a lick, play a lick blues most of us are familiar with. It’s for this reason that many guitar lesson teachers advise listening to blues singers to learn blues guitar. Blues licks act as the response to the singer's voice or call. Blues licks are generally 4 or 5 note lines that respond to what’s just been sung. These licks can be simple or complex depending on the player. Put a bunch of licks together and you have a blues solo. Unlike a lick, a solo can last for as long as the player wants it to. Here’s a blues lick is written out into guitar tabs

Intro to Blues

Intro to Blues Intro “The blues are the roots; everything else is the fruits” -Willie Dixon. Other than jazz, blues is the only true American music form. With its simple chord progressions and modified scales, the blues have strongly influenced almost all popular music. The origins of the blues are closely related to Afro-American spirituals and have their roots in the southern United States. When the blues first took hold musicians who chose to play them over gospel or church music would take the chance of being ostracized. Even though gospel and blues music used similar techniques: call-and-response, blue notes, and slide guitars, blues was considered to be the devil’s music. Although blues started in the fields of the rural south; within a few years, many southern blacks moved north to Chicago in search of better jobs. Some of the more creative bluesmen like Muddy Waters and Howlin Wolf had moved to Chicago and added electric guitars and drums to their bands so that they could be he...

Blues Scales

Gambar
Blues Scales Many people think that the pentatonic minor scale and the blues scale are two guitar scales that are the exact same. In fact: the pentatonic minor scale contains 5 notes….the 1st, b3rd, 4th, 5th and dominant 7th from the associated major scale, while the blues scale contains 6 notes……..1st, b3rd, 4th, b5th, 5th and dominant 7th. Although the b5 note should be used as a passing tone it does add to the jazz/blues groove of certain styles of blues. Master bluesman Michael Bloomfield used the b5 note a great deal in his solos. The same b5 note works great as part of a trill lick. Another scale that can be used with some types of blues is the Dorian scale. Because it contains 7 notes including a b3 and dominant 7th, this scale can give a blues tune a blues-rock vibe. Below are some free guitar tabs to show the blues scales.
