Make sure you click the link below because it’s gonna have the tab and the chords we’re gonna go over because this is gonna be like an acoustic representation of everything that the band is doing. I’ll see you next time.What’s going on everybody? Sean Daniel with Guitar Control here and today we’re gonna learn a classic song Paint It Black by The Rolling Stones. Make sure you request videos for the songs you want to learn. Here are those same chords to tempo, one, two, one, two, three, four.
Now play that again without calling it, it sounds like this. So it goes 2-4-4-4-2 the fretted numbers and this is the sequence of the chords, E minor, D, G, back to D and then stay on E minor for eight beats, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, E minor, D, G, D to an A for four beats and then a B for four beats. One, two and now all these are on the 4th fret now we’re going to bar all these with our index finger. We’ll also going to use a B major which is this A chord slid up two frets. I use one finger for all of those although you can use three separate fingers if you want. Open A string, 2nd fret D, 2nd fret G and 2nd fret B. It should sound like this.Īn A chord, we’ll hit that in the chorus too. Which is 3rd fret of the low E, 2nd fret of the A, open D, open G, 3rd fret of the B, 3rd fret of the high E. It’s your open D string, 2nd fret G, 2nd fret high E, 3rd fret B, strum from the D string down. Speaking of E minor, this is a E minor, it’s an open E string, 2nd fret A, 2nd fret D and your high three strings. Now the chorus is just a bunch of chords we’re gong to play them in E minor. Anyhow, this is how it goes, one, two, three, four, one. It doesn’t really have a beat we just kind of fall out of tempo there before the song starts. All right here is that riff to speed and we’re going to kind of retard it towards the end because that riff at the end is a transition riff. So the whole introduction sounds like this. So it sounds like this, the second half of this. You’re going to hammer it on, and then we’re going to hit the 2nd fret of the high E. Then we’re going to do a riff that goes 2-4-5 on the B. So the only frets I’m going to call out are the ones on the B string.
So we’re going to start on the 5th fret of the B, and after every note we’re going to answer with a high E string, wide open. It’s actually a sitar but we’re going to apply this to the electric because why not. The intro to Paint It Black, which is also the riff that goes over the verse, it starts on the 5th fret of the B. We’re also going to take a look at the chorus and the reason we’re not taking a look at the verse is because the introduction is the verse. In this video tutorial we’re going to take a look at the introduction. Who knows why?īut in rereleases of the song they remove the comma, as it was originally intended to be not there. The comma was something that the record label added to the name of the title. In this video we’re going to learn Paint It Black by The Rolling Stones but interestingly this song was never titled Paint It, Black. You’re watching and my name is Joe Wiles and I’m with the Rock ‘N Roll Conservatory. Through the second half of the chorus, the chords move in the same way from the E minor, D major, G major, and back to D major, but end up on a A major chord for four counts followed by a B major chord for four counts to finish off. In the first half of the chorus, the chords move quickly between an E minor, a D major, a G major, back to a D major, then stay on the E minor again for eight counts. On a guitar, the intro riff, which is also the riff that is played over the verse, uses a moving melody from the E minor scale that is answered by a droning E note on the open high E string.
In our tutorial, we cover both the introduction to the song as well as the chords that make up the chorus. It begins with its signature sitar riff, which Keith Richards is known to use an effected electric to emulate. Paint It, Black is in the key of E minor. Even though it was recorded as a comedy song, Paint It, Black went on to achieve number one status in both the U.S. Although the Beatles were credited with introducing the sitar to mainstream pop music in the mid-1960’s, Rolling Stone’s Paint It, Black was the first song to be a number one hit featuring the instrument. The first single from The Rolling Stone’s fourth album, Aftermath, Paint It, Black is the quintessential song from the psychedelic rock movement of the 1960’s.
