When you play the C chord pick the third string open then the next time at the second fret and alternate. Same thing with the G chord only on the fourth string. Difficult to explain. If I had a guitar I'd show you in a second. |

29 Dec 11 - 08:25 PM (#3281743) Subject: RE: Chord Req: Candy Man (Donovan) From: GUEST,999 Yeah, We're aware of that. However, most guitarists would be able to listen and take a good stab at the tuning he used. Regardless, the tabs are in the link I posted. |

30 Dec 11 - 11:48 AM (#3281988) Subject: RE: Chord Req: Candy Man (Donovan) From: Big Al Whittle Donovan plays Candyman like everyone else withleft hand. you put a five string C chord on, pick twice you lower the third finger from the E to the A directly below it, pick twice back to the C, pick twice Bring in the little finger and play the F on the fourth string pick twice F chord G chord C chord The only difference from everyone else is that he flat picks it. nice flat pick style. Up and down - calls for a flexible wrist. |
