Carry On (Intro)
Pat Green
This is an easy intro to play, but you have to tune the
guitar down to dropped "D" tuning to do it correctly (for
those who don't know, dropped D is when you tune the lowest
string (the low E) down to a "D" and leave the other
strings alone, so instead of an "E" chord sounding good
with all six strings played, now a "D" chord sounds right
with all six strings played. Anyways, here's the song:
D G
e--------------------------------------------------------
B--------------------------------------------------------
G--------------------------------------------------------
D-------------------------------------5------------------
A---7-7--9-9--10-10--9-9--7-7--9-9----5------------------
D---0-0--0-0--0--0---0-0--0-0--0-0--0h5------------------
Also, during the song, since you are tuned to dropped D,
you have to do some things different in the chords..."A"
and "D" should pretty much stay the same, but during a "G"
chord, you don't need to play the bottom string at all, as
the tuning is off and trying to compensate for that is just
rediculously hard (i.e., playing a "G" chord plus sliding
your finger up to 5 on the bottom string instead of the
normal 3), so I just palm mute or avoid the bottom string
and just play the top five there. Also, one more thing, on
Em, you can compensate there by adding a finger to 2 on the
bottom string to make up for the lower tuning (i.e. in a
regular, standard guitar tuning, an Em is played "022000",
whereas in a dropped D tuning, it would be "222000"...kind
of like an "A" chord but moved up two strings, lol. Okay,
I'm done now, lol.
