U2 - One guitar chords


In this video James looks at how to play U2 - One from the Achtung Baby album

"One" is a rock ballad played in a 4/4 time signature at a tempo of 91 beats per minute. The verse follows a chord progression of Am–D–Fmaj7–G while the chorus follows C–Am–Fmaj7–C.
Bono described the song's theme as such: "It is a song about coming together, but it's not the old hippie idea of 'Let's all live together.' It is, in fact, the opposite. It's saying, We are one, but we're not the same. It's not saying we even want to get along, but that we have to get along together in this world if it is to survive. It's a reminder that we have no choice". The Edge described it on one level as a "bitter, twisted, vitriolic conversation between two people who've been through some nasty, heavy stuff". On another level, he suggested that the line "we get to carry each other" introduces "grace" to the song and that the wording "get to" (instead of "got to") is essential, as it suggests that it is a privilege to help one another, not an obligation. The band have been told by many fans that they played the song at their weddings, prompting Bono to respond, "Are you mad? It's about splitting up

Queen - Long Away - Guitar Play Along with Guitar Tabs





Queen Long Away guitar play along with the record with on screen guitar tablature



Using Guitar Rig 5 with the Red Special Guitar to create a 12 string guitar sound,



Long Away written and sang by Brian May was one of the few songs where the red special was not the main guitar. A Burns 12 string was used on this track from the 1976 A Day At The Races album



This video is more a play along with tabs than a lesson or tutorial

Queen - We Are The Champions - Guitar Play Along with guitar tab on screen





Queen - We Are The Champions guitar play along with on screen guitar tab



Classic track from the 1977 Queen album News Of The World penned by Freddie Mercury in 6/8 time and in the key of E Flat.



There are two Brian May guitar parts. This video obviously just plays one with the lead guitar too.



Written by Freddie Mercury, "We Are the Champions" was built on audience response, with Brian May stating; 'We wanted to get the crowds waving and singing. It’s very unifying and positive'.



Musically, it is based around Mercury's piano part, with Roger Taylor and John Deacon providing a drums and bass guitar backing. May overdubbed some guitar sections, initially subtle, but building to a 'solo' played simultaneously with the last chorus. Mercury employed many jazz chords (major and minor 6th, 7th, 9th, 11th and 13th harmonies), and the choruses featured these voiced as 4 and 5-part vocal harmonies. The lead vocal is very demanding and strident (highest point is a C5 both belted and in falsetto), with one of Mercury's most notable performances taking place at the Live Aid concert, at Wembley Stadium, London in 1985.



The single featured "We Will Rock You" as a B-side, and followed the song on the album. The two songs were often played consecutively at the close of Queen concerts, and are customarily played together on radio broadcasts (in album order). Keeping with tradition, it was also used to close the 1992 Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert with all the show's acts joining in behind the lead vocal of Liza Minnelli.
