What’s up guys, it is Aaron. The next song I am going to teach today is called “That’s What You Get”, by Paramore.
It is really a pretty simple song, it has got two different parts and I might teach you through the whole song, probably two lessons.
Tuning is in drop D. All that means is your standard tuning and then, you tune this down so this sounds the same when you play them. The way to do that is--so, we are on standard tuning. Just pull off the E and the D together and you adjust the low E until they sound the same.
Now, I am playing this on an acoustic and they play on electric so bear with me but we are going to try and walk through this, the intro. Since you are in drop D you can play the power chords.
Alright, so the power chords, the lead guitar plays this. I play by barring my pointer finger across the bottom, really it is bottom four strings but you need it to cover the D string. Okay, so D string, you are on the 10th fret. The 10th fret up this D string 3rd string down. You are going to play it three times and then you will play the G string on the 10th fret then C string at 12th fret with your ring finger, it sounds like--
[Demonstration]
Play that. So D, D, D, on 10th fret, then G on the 10th, ring finger comes in here and G on 12th, like that. Then you go back and you play this thing again the first thing down on the D string, 10, 10, 10, then slide up your pointer finger 12 and your ring on the 15 and those two are both on G string.
[Demonstration]
So, that 12, 15. Then you keep your pointer finger there on the D string and 12th fret you play 1, 2, 3 and ring finger here on 15 slide to 17 on the G string again and so it is only, start off at the beginning on the D string 10, 10, 10 G string 10, 12 then 10, 10, 10 then slide up on the G string 10 to 15 then on the D string 12, 12, 12, 15 on G string 17 on G string and then you move that ring finger right here to the 17th fret of the D string, you play 17, 17, 17, 15.
Do that two times.
[Demonstration]
Like that. Alright, it has got a little distortion on it too.
Other thing, the other guitars, the rhythm guitar, and it just plays a bar across the 6th fret, you play the top three strings so, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 8, 8, 8, 10, 10, 10, 8. 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 8, 8, 8, 10, 10, 10, 8, 8, that is how they play that. Alright that is the intro
Verse. I am not sure if this is completely right but the tab that I found that sounds right is the lead guitar plays four measures of this thing where you put his pointer finger bar across the bottom two strings 6th fret, the middle finger or ring, whatever, on the 7th fret of this G string. So, your B and E are on 6th, it just sounds like that, you play it four beats.
[Demonstration]
Okay. I want you to play that four times, you play this little riff that you played in the intro. See, and that right there.
Alright, you play that twice, then you go back to this little thing here.
[Demonstration]
That is for the verse.
Now, the rhythm guitar is playing this 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 8, 8, 8, 10, 10, 10, twice, do it twice, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 8, 8, 8, 10, 10, 10. And then it plays two times and plays 6, 6, 6, mute 6, 6, 6, mute 8, 8, 8, mute, 10, 10, 10, 8, mute, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, mute, 8, 8, 8, mute, 10, 10, 10, 8. That is twice and then you go back to the thing that you did at the very beginning, where you played, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 8, 8, 8, 10, 10, 10, you do that twice.
The pre-chorus. For the lead guitar, you just put your pointer finger on the 6th fret of your A string, and then your ring and pinky on the 8th fret of your D and G and you use that to play the A, D and G strings. You play that. So, the lead plays.
[Demonstration]
Just like that, just strum that. That is the lead plays, the rhythm plays, just bar across 1st fret, these top three strings on 1st fret, alright
Then during the chorus, the lead guitar plays something that I have not looked at it yet, so we are going to give this. The tab is here. The way I recommend it is playing pointer finger on the 15th fret. Bar across like the top three strings and then you
