Alright guys, this next one is going for my older brother Chris. He requested this one and it is called I’m Going to Miss Her by Brad Paisely.
The intro can kind of be a little confusing and kind of tough to master if you do not play a whole lot. So take your time on this one, just work through ti slowly and then after a couple of days of practicing, you will be able to play it like—it will be like second nature.
The way I am going to teach you to play it is with a pick, you can also play it with finger picking if you want. So you are going to start on the G kind of formation but really do not have to go through the whole chord using that strings. Take your ring finger and put it on the 3rd fret, and this is in standard tuning by the way. So it is in standard tuning, just ignore the capo, pretend that this is the top of my guitar.
So on the 3rd fret down, you are going to put your ring finger on the low E, your pinky on the high E. The first three notes you are going to play are the E, the G string and the E, so if you number them one, two three, four, five, six, you play 1, 4, 6, then really quick, you are going to play open A, and then pointer finger 1st fret on the A and then middle finger single. So you put those together and if you use these two fingers, it makes it easier. So put it together, you will have—[Demo]
And after you play that, you are going to play the 4th string open and then 6th string open again. We are going to leave that pinky on if you want. That is part of the way I prefer to play. Once you played that, you are going to play this A string open and play it again and hammer your ring finger on the 3rd fret and then you play 4, 6 both open. Then the chord says D. It says 2 and 2, so it is two on the B add two on the E string. I think it should be 3 on the B string. Play the 3rd string down open your D string, then put your ring finger on the 3rd fret of your B string, which is your next to the last one, the bottom one, 5th string down. Play that and then the very bottom string on the 2nd fret with your middle finger covering it. And then you play—so from the beginning from there, I will start over as—[Demo]
Then you are going to come up here to the D string with your 3rd string down. You are going to play 4th fret, 2nd fret, so just walk it down. Then you get into the actual song.
There are a few chords here. It starts with the G, then G/B. All these chords that I am talking about, if you run your cursor over the top of them, it will tell you how they want you to play them. The first one says “while I love her”, it has got a G/B in there which means you are going to come all the way to like the 7th fret above the Capo. You have to do something like this, so just ignore that. Do not play that note. Just go C, D, G, D, G, C, Am7 so your middle finger 3rd on the 2nd fret and your ring is the 5th string down your B string next to last from the 2nd fret. So “if I hit” is a regular G and then the “fishing” if you move your cursor over these chords, it will explain it to you. [Demo] Em, Bm, C.
Chorus is C, G, D, G7 which just means you play all the way up your 1st fret. If you see a G/F# or a G7 or a G/B, just do not play any of those. Just act like they are not there. I think it is because Brad Paisley picks certain notes so it might sound better if you strum it to sound right.
The bridge is a B, B is a bar chord across your 2nd fret and then you cover the 3 frets up here so this is kind of like a mini bar chords. It is kind of difficult. If you do not like that, you can actually just come up here and put your finger across the bottom three and play that. It is not near B but it did not sound quite as bad. So you can play an A chord. So as long as you have your fingers on the 4th fret of your D, G and B strings like this, that can kind of substitute for B.
So most of those chords, if you do not know what they are, just go to the tab over here, run your cursor over the top and it will give you a picture that pops up. Wherever there is an X, that means that is where your fingers should go. So if you run over t
