I am really confused about how to play the chords for this song, based on what Justin shows in these 2 videos and what’s then written in the chords section (the written out chords are only available in the payed TABs section which I am aware that not everyone has access to). I’m posting an edited version of my previous post on this because I realised I wasn’t very clear in my initial post and I didn’t get very helpful responses (probably because of my poor explanations).
Context: I’m trying to play this song, but playing individual notes is a bit difficult for me if I want to sing as well. I’m not giving up on picking the single notes but for playing and singing this song, it would be fine to just do a chord version. However, I’m really a bit confused by the chords given by Justin in the paid section for this underneath Patience (1/3) and Patience (2/3) and what Justin actually says in the videos. These are the issues and it concerns the verse and the outro:
Note: Where I note the chords, I’m referring to the chords that Justin gives in the paid TABs section below the video which i know not everyone has access to.
- In the lesson Patience (1/3) in the paid access chords tab below, it shows this chord progression for the verse
C C G/B G
A A D D
But in the video, Justin shows a C with a B bass. So which should it be? C with a B bass or G with a B bass? Help!!! If it’s a G over a B, how do you play that? It’s not shown in the video. Perhaps this was just typing mistake in the Chords tab?
-
In the video for Patience (1/3) Justin says that the outro is just G then D repeated, except right at the end where there’s also an F barre. However, in the paid chords tab, there’s a D over F# (D/F#) which he never explains in this video. Fortunately, I worked that one out because he does explain it in the video for Patience (2/3). So I think I’m Ok on that one.
-
Now looking at the paid chords tab to Patience (2/3) has left me completely confused because the verse is now written
F F C/E C
D D G G
rather than
C C G/B G
A A D D
It doesn’t make any sense and Justin isn’t playing that chord progression in the video.
Is this a mistake?
- Then in the paid chords tab to lesson Patience (2/3) , the Outro is written:
G G/B C C
rather than
G G D/F# D
Again this is different to what he shows in the video and completely inconsistent with what’s shown in the paid chords section of session Patience (1/3).
So I’m really confused.
An additional confusion is that the tuning for this song is half a step down, but this isn’t mentioned in the video either unless I missed that.
Perhaps one of the instructors @Richard_close2u or @LievenDV might have time to explain?
Sorry for all my questions and rather complicated post but I’m really confused but I would like to nail this one. Thanks in advance for any help / explanations !!!
