Hi, I am Bob from Toronto, Canada. This guitar lesson is about how to play the guitar solo from “Maybe I am Amazed” by Paul McCartney. The first play the guitar solo with the backing guitar track, then, I will explain, how to play the solo note for note. Here it goes.
[Demonstration]
Starts with, take this verse off. Starts up on the second string, III fret,
[Demonstration]
Then the first string, I fret.
[Demonstration]
III fret.
[Demonstration]
I fret.
[Demonstration]
Then bend up on the third string.
[Demonstration]
And play the III fret.
[Demonstration]
The I fret.
[Demonstration]
And the second string; III fret,
[Demonstration]
I fret.
[Demonstration]
Then, open string, I fret.
[Demonstration]
I fret.
[Demonstration]
Open.
[Demonstration]
And second string, III fret.
[Demonstration]
So, that part there is.
[Demonstration]
And the first part repeats.
[Demonstration]
And it is the first string, I fret.
[Demonstration]
Pull off the open string in the I fret.
[Demonstration]
Then it is the first part again.
[Demonstration]
Then it is to the third string, IV fret,
[Demonstration]
Pull off to the second.
[Demonstration]
And pull off to open.
[Demonstration]
Then it is to the second string, III fret.
[Demonstration]
IV fret,
[Demonstration]
III fret.
[Demonstration]
I fret.
[Demonstration]
And to the third string open and hammer on to the II fret.
[Demonstration]
And to the first string, sorry, second string, I fret.
[Demonstration]
Fourth string; III fret,
[Demonstration]
Then to the second string, I fret.
[Demonstration]
II fret.
[Demonstration]
I fret.
[Demonstration]
Third string; III fret,
[Demonstration]
And the third string, I fret.
[Demonstration]
Pull off to open string, then fourth string, III fret.
[Demonstration]
Third string open,
[Demonstration]
And you play the C chord broken. So it is fifth string, III fret.
[Demonstration]
Fourth string; II fret,
[Demonstration]
Third string open,
[Demonstration]
Fourth string; II fret,
[Demonstration]
Second string, I fret.
[Demonstration]
And slide up and barre up to the V fret and it is the fourth string in V fret.
[Demonstration]
Second string, V fret,
[Demonstration]
Third string; V fret,
[Demonstration]
Then the first string, V fret slide down.
[Demonstration]
So, let us play the whole thing again slowly.
[Demonstration]
Now if you want to play the solo along, I can play the backing acoustic guitar. You want to tune into my guitar, here is my A note.
[Demonstration]
One, two, three, four,
[Demonstration]
I hope this lesson has been helpful. Bye for now.
