[Closing Doors]

Ok, I can play all the chords in time and everything, but where are all these hammer-on's and pull-offs coming from ?? smileys/smiley11.gif

[the professor]

i still need help with the chord timing and all. lol. could someone explain it to me?

[Closing Doors]

The song is mainly just G and D (the version Damien uses is C pushed up 2 frets). You need to listen for when the changes come in, and you have to play this with your thumb - I've tried it with a plec and it just sounds wrong ! Try and keep the basic beat at first, cause it took me a bit of practise to play it strum for strum like Damien (and I still make the odd timing error smileys/smiley9.gif)


So can anybody help me out with the hammer-on's and pull offs ?

Which part are you having trouble with? smileys/smiley1.gif


I listened closely to the chorus and I'm not 100% sure if I play it correctly but it's like this ...the hammer on are quite quick after the chord changes but I don't think you really need them

and i hate when you say&nb sp; that i never fight for you
cos sometimes you breathe&nbsp ; all over my skin
and you always end up&nbs p;&nbs p; much closer than close
and thats..............................when


Em
I give in


I hope it comes out correctly....thats how I play it anyway, hope it helps :)

I'm not really sure how I could explain the timing. http://www.our-adams-family.co.uk/emmett/forum/smileys/smiley11.gifThe only way I can think of is to video myself playing it.
