Members Shart Posted April 16, 2013 Members Share Posted April 16, 2013 Speaking of getting the correct chords going, who can tell me the correct chord progression for Midnight Rider? The main riff is a D with some hammer-ons but where does it go from there? I've tried some tabs but they don't sound right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Bob Dey Posted April 17, 2013 Members Share Posted April 17, 2013 Gmin7 C D During the lead - C to B flat a few times and back to D. Too high for me, I'd have bring it down to G or A. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mchalebk Posted April 18, 2013 Members Share Posted April 18, 2013 I've been working up a version of this for my duo. I'm using elements of the Allman Brothers version along with the Gregg Allman solo version. One interesting thing: Gregg's version uses Gm7-Bb-D, instead of Gm7-C-D.I also don't think of this song as being in D, necessarily, since it has a lot of Dm tonality going on (especially in Gregg's version, where there are plenty of F naturals being played during the instrumental breaks). I've been playing it in drop D and mostly staying away from the high E string, which leaves the D without a 3rd (so it could be minor or major).
