Ballad style, Auld Lang Sang, putting it all together. 2 2
Okay, let's try the whole tune. 3 3
So remember the three steps? 4 4
Step one, basic left hand ballad style. 5 5
[MUSIC] 6 6
Step two, work out the melody line. 7 7
[MUSIC] 8 8
Step three, thicken up the melody line with chord tones beneath the melody line. 9 9
[MUSIC] 10 10
Okay, let's try the whole song, I'll take you through it step by step. 11 11
You'll notice that a lot of the melody actually fits exactly with the chord tones 12 12
so that doesn't happen in every song. 13 13
And there's one chord B in this song which is slightly different, so 14 14
I'll point that out. 15 15
[MUSIC]. 16 16
G backwards. 17 17
E minor. 18 18
Pedal. 19 19
A minor backwards. 20 20
D root position. 21 21
G backwards. 22 22
[MUSIC]. 23 23
You can see the chords stays the same, and you're moving up through, 24 24
G backwards, G middle. 25 25
You can actually 26 26
play a G open, to C. 27 27
E minor, A minor backwards, 28 28
and this is where B is backwards, would be that. 29 29
But, the melody line is the A. 30 30
So you're playing the third and the fifth in the melody line. 31 31
[MUSIC] 32 32
C. 33 33
[MUSIC] 34 34
To get to D, it's not easy to jump down there if you're not used to it. 35 35
So you can actually go from the melody line to the third. 36 36
Okay. 37 37
