Ghost Riders in the Sky
First off, if you want just a simple version, ignore all the chords
in parentheses, and simply play the Em, G and C where indicated. Strum in
a rythm that sounds like a galloping horse; you know, like the first few
opening bars to the theme from Bonanza (tum tada dum tada dum tada dum).
On the other hand, you can make this simple song more interesting
with a few easy tricks. The first is to play the bass line along with the
Em chord. The bass line is easy, and goes...
E|----------------------------------
B|----------------------------------
G|----------------------------------
D|----------------------------------
A|-----1-2------1-2-------1-2-------
E|--0-------0---------0---------0---
...where the open sixth string (E) is a quarter note, the two notes on the
fifth string (Bb abd B, repectively) are eighth notes. If you play the Em
chord as...
EADGBe
||1|||
|23|||
||||||
...(Yes, that's right; two fingers on the fifth string), you can play the
bass line while you strum the Em chord just by picking up and putting
down your 3rd finger.
The changes to (C/E) and (A/E) are attempts to cover the sound
originally filled in by a couple of background singers singing "ah" on the
notes B, C, C#, C. This works on acoustic guitar if you continue to strum
the low E (open sixth string) rather prominantly while playing the
following positions.
C/E (regular old C position, A/E or A7/E
EADGBe but with the low E played EADGBe EADGBe (i.e., use your third
||||1| with a vengeance!) |||||| |||||| finger to mute the
||2||| ||111| ||||1| 4th string. I prefer
|3|||| |||||| |||||| this because the
|3|||| |3x||| changes are smoother)
Good luck. Send email or post if you have any questions.
