00:24 >> Hi. Welcome to Learn Guitar with David Brent.
00:29 [ Music ]
00:38 The chords, as much as they're sort of, you know,
00:43 named after letters of the alphabet, A, B, et cetera,
00:48 that's not-- you don't have to do them in that order.
00:53 You know, if anything, start from C.
00:58 I just like to play around really, see what happens.
01:02 Just-- that's just called riffing.
01:09 Just see what happens.
01:13 Oh, where's that going to go?
01:14 I don't know what I'm going to play next.
01:16 [ Music ]
01:21 But it'll probably be a C or an A minor or F or G.
01:26 But I mean, I don't know within that constraint.
01:29 Oh, E minor.
01:30 Shake it up.
01:32 See what happens.
01:34 You know, don't go-- I mean, that's nothing.
01:36 That probably is a chord in jazz.
01:40 And sort of like film, like, you know, foreign films.
01:49 That would be a film score.
01:51 I'd be mental after a while, wouldn't I?
01:53 Absolutely awful.
01:55 That awful.
01:57 If that's-- if that chord has got a name, it's twat.
02:04 Some chords go together better than others,
02:09 but you're going to find that out.
02:10 I'm not going to tell you which ones you like.
02:12 You know, some people like C. What's that?
02:16 C, F, G. Oh, that's not very complicated.
02:18 No, but listen to it.
02:20 [Guitar playing]
02:24 Yeah?
02:25 [Guitar playing]
02:29 If you want to jazz it up, stick in an A minor.
02:32 [Guitar playing]
02:36 I've written a little song you may have heard of just on those chords.
02:39 It's called "Free Love Freeway."
02:40 [Guitar playing]
02:45 Just C, F, A minor, G.
02:49 [Guitar playing]
02:50 Pretty girl on the hood of a Cadillac, yeah.
02:53 She's broken down on Freeway 9.
02:56 I take a look and get her engine started,
03:00 leave her purring and I roll on by, by, by.
03:04 Free love on the free love freeway.
03:07 The love is free and the freeway's long.
03:10 I got some hot love on the hot love highway.
03:14 Going home 'cause my baby's gone, she's gone.
03:19 [Guitar playing]
03:21 Just C, F, A minor, G.
03:25 A little while later I see a senorita.
03:28 She's caught up flat and trying to make it home.
03:31 She says, "Harder, fatter, more time."
03:33 You pump me up, I say, "Muchos gracias," and "Adiós," "Bye, bye."
03:39 Free love on the free love freeway.
03:42 The love is free and the freeway's long.
03:45 I got some hot love on the hot love highway.
03:50 Going home 'cause my baby's gone, she's gone.
03:54 Still C, F, A minor, G.
03:56 It's never changing, just the lyrics.
04:00 [Guitar playing]
04:01 A little while later I see a cowboy crying.
04:04 "Hey, buddy, what can I do?"
04:07 He says, "I've had a good life.
04:09 I've had about a thousand women."
04:11 I said, "Then why the tears?"
04:13 He says, "Because none of them was you."
04:15 Now that sounded different.
04:16 It was exactly the same chords, just slowed down.
04:19 Free love on the free love freeway.
04:22 The love is free and the freeway's long.
04:25 I got some hot love on the hot love highway.
04:29 Going home 'cause my baby's gone, she's gone.
04:33 Free love on the free love freeway.
04:36 The love is free and the freeway's long.
04:39 I got some hot love on the hot love highway.
04:43 Going home 'cause my baby's gone, she's gone.
04:47 There you go.
04:48 Same ones, look.
04:49 Still going.
04:50 [Guitar playing]
04:53 Right to the end.
04:54 [Guitar playing]
05:03 [Guitar playing]
05:11 [Music]
