Okay so, you have learned the first half of the song, now we just got to get into the chorus of the “In My Life” okay.
[Demo]
Second time through it similar.
[Demo]
Then it goes different.
[Demo]
And then back to the beginning where we started okay. So, let’s go through the chorus again. Chord wise first, we’re going to be using an A minor.
[Demo]
Okay and we’re also going to be using a D. If you have got room then move your fourth finger, also played the C note here okay.
[Demo]
But that does not give you a D7. We connected the three notes in there. That is fine but for the luxury effect if you want to add that C note which will make it a D7 then do it. Then we put an F in there and another F right here which we have already used. So, that is the only other chords we are going to need this time, only the D that we did not play before. Let us go through the right hand here. Remember where I am.
[Demo]
Starting here with your A going up to this E note.
[Demo]
Chord wise, is your A minor and your D.
[Demo]
Or your D7. Which ever you can fit in there.
[Demo]
Let us go through that one more time. Again into your A minor.
[Demo]
D7 or D.
[Demo]
Okay. And the next part is…
[Demo]
Okay. Let me do that one more time.
[Demo]
Okay. And chord wise, F.
[Demo]
And F minor.
[Demo]
We can do that one more time.
[Demo]
F
[Demo]
F minor.
[Demo]
C.
[Demo]
Okay. And the second time through is similar and it just ends to our final key so.
[Demo]
A minor again.
[Demo]
Your D.
[Demo]
Okay. The difference in the ending, here we go.
[Demo]
Go up to an F.
[Demo]
F minor.
[Demo]
Back to your C.
[Demo]
Okay, let us go through that again. Your A minor. This is the whole way from the start of the chorus.
[Demo]
A minor.
[Demo]
D.
[Demo]
F.
[Demo]
F minor.
[Demo]
And C.
[Demo]
The second time through.

[Demo]
D or D7.
[Demo]
F.
[Demo]
F minor.
[Demo]
And a C.
[Demo]
Okay. That is the chorus part. Okay, so let us go through our whole review of the song and remember to start playing just this straight chord with your left hand if you wanted to do any variation of it, two notes here, four notes, going back and forth like that. Just put a little bit of beat into it. Whatever you feel like doing. We are allowed to do because you are playing by ears. There is no music sheet to tell you what to do. So let us go through the whole song.
[Demo]
See this.
[Demo]
You can do these two notes.
[Demo]
Two notes there.
[Demo]
Use your D or your D7.
[Demo]
Okay, go right back to the A again.
[Demo]
And to end it off, you go…
[Demo]
And back to your C again.
[Demo]
Okay, so there is the whole song. Practice that. Have lots of fun with it.
