00:00hey what's up everybody and welcome back to another video today is gonna be live
00:17lightning crashes I guess there's not much more to say if you liked the video
00:21please hit that like button subscribe down below truly truly appreciate it
00:26live lightning crashes stick around okay so live lightning crashes pretty straightforward it comes
00:36in with
00:56that's actually kind of a long time it's through the verse and it's through without any singing
01:06and through the verse I'm sorry if I if a couple seconds ago you heard some stupid loud motorcycle
01:10have to go by and rev the engine like they thought they were cool I don't know if that got picked up
01:15but I don't really like people doing that you know people with motorcycles they read it like oh
01:20I don't know anyways uh pretty straightforward it's actually very straightforward in the sense that
01:25other than the rhythm of those chords it's those chords and I'm not even going to show the bridge
01:31there is a bridge I don't really you know I don't know why I'm not going to show it I didn't fully
01:37learn it before this so there is a little section of the bridge that has different chords but other
01:44than that it's these three so the whole song pretty much chorus and verses um yeah other than the
01:50rhythm so so the rhythm of the opening in this I mean in the verses are is like what I was just doing
01:57it's an f um just you can do all bar chords I'm not sure if they're always well f is usually a
02:04bar chord anyways it's fcg now I'm doing all bar chords it could be an f open c shape and a g with the
02:12open chords I mean open strings but I'm just going to do um get more control yeah no I'm assuming it's
02:17bar chords because you're um kind of doing that mutant in between so obviously that's a lot easier
02:22with the bar okay so uh barring the one first fret three three next two strings two and then one one
02:30obviously it's a f bar chord I mean a f major chord but it's a bar chord so it's
02:37so it's
02:45you know I mean you don't have to get the rhythm completely it's it's it's it's
02:52strum strum strum mute strum strum
02:56yeah so it's strum down mute and then strum strum you know anyone anyone who can play a guitar at all
03:16knows what I you know okay
03:19okay so that's the f to c which is three on the a five five five on the next strings d g and b
03:33same kind of
03:38so f to c
03:43to g
03:49g is an extra measure I guess it's it's like what you do with the f and the c but
04:00you do it kind of twice so it's
04:02so the g you linger on a little more so it's f c g and a g of course is just the f moved up
04:17a whole step which is three five five four three three so f
04:23c g now when the chorus comes in it's those chords but
04:38so it's like yeah I mean once you get the chords down and the rhythm down it's common sense I guess
05:01like like the the um intro and verse uh the longer prolonged and then the chorus is the
05:10chord chord chord and then you linger on the g you linger on the g each time
05:14but it's a little different like so it's sorry
05:18and then
05:25so like I said other than there is a bridge
05:37and I think the chords of the bridge are uh I mean basing this on the tab is an a minor
05:44and then this little embellished lick and then kind of like the jimmy hendrix chord which is nine
05:49eight nine eight never mind and then uh f and then a g so it's like a
05:56the f g is there just like the beginning so you know but yeah it's that's the bridge which I'm not
06:03even gonna bother other than that that was lightning crashes by live okay so that'll do it for another
06:09video until next time see you later gadoosh
06:19you
06:21you
