Another minimal effort song for maximum grins.

 

Let me know if you think it's fun. ;)

 

 

Song is played with a capo at the first fret

Then constant pattern of

 

Em -G -D - A

 

If no capo, then

 

F - Ab - Eb - Bb

 

I was groovin on this riff and having "pinky fun" adding some extra sustain notes

Haha I love this song!

 

Yeah, catchy isn't it? ;) It's got a nice little groove.

 

They ran a repeat of SNL last night from a few weeks back, and they were the guest artist of that episode. It was running in my head so I thought I'd look up the chords and found it fun to groove with.

 

I've got a little Roland MicroCube on my desk between my computer speakers which is just perfect for playing along with the bands on YT. :D

Such a catchy song.

Kid seems quite talented.

 

Yeah, you've gotta envy the youth. Even if I'd come up with that one, I wouldn't be able to "sell" it.

 

Dang, I now look more like David Gilmour but play more like those kids. Wrong combo. :lol:
