Kinks Power Chords

Will do You Really Got Me Power chords dominate this song. Setting of guitar tone and where you play is important.

F5 Power Chord (E form) G5 Power Chord (E form) 1 3 4 1 3 4 X X X X X X These are 6th root at the 5th fret is A5 power chord, B5 at 7th fret, C5 at 8th fret, and D5 at 10th fret. For this song do F5 to G5 for 8 bars then up 2 frets G5 to A5 for 4 bars then up to the C5 D5 for 4 more bars. Solo is F5 to G5 for whole thing.

F5 Keep fingers in one form for the whole song. You can think of these are a barre form (E form) without playing the 1st 3 stings. In fact, try to mute those strings. Slide the chords, you may get some string noise but that is ok. Watch the rests on beat 3 and the fist ½ of beat 4. They are just as important as the notes you play.

Use the book

Solo Very typical old school type solo. Lot’s of bends Repeated melodic and rhythmic figures. Looks hard but is not all that difficult as the repeats really simplify it.

3rd fret gives you the blues scale in G 3rd fret gives you the blues scale in G. This whole solo uses this scale on the 1st four strings only.

1 1 2 3 I hold down a G chord at the 3rd fret (E form) while playing – at least I will think of that! 1 1 2 3

Rhythmic patterns in this Let’s try this rhythm over and over – do as 4/4 1 e & 2 e & 3 e & 4 e & You could relate this to the classic rhythm of “I think I can” just the “think I can” from the book “The Little Engine that Could”. 1 e &

These 2 are similar but backwards. 1 e & 1 & e

Start of the solo is with a bend that just keeps going Start of the solo is with a bend that just keeps going. Starts on the and after beat 1 and continues into the 2nd measure. The bend is somewhere between a ¼ bend and a ½ step bend. 1 & 2 e & 3 & (a 4) 3 & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & Bend up 5th to 6th on recording a ¼ bend. Count this out slowly. Just take your time on this. Listen to the recording. Listen to the solo slow – just notes.

1 & a 2 (& 3) & 4 e & 1 & (a 2) e & 3 & 4 e & Bend up a ¼ step to ½ step. These measures. Repeats next line.

Whole Thing!

Try the whole thing!

The End

Work in groups We will split up in groups of 3. Try to play the whole song. Then change off on the solo. Don’t worry if it is perfect the key is to just get some of the ideas. Note that this is based off of the G blues scale again almost entirely.

Power Chords Going forward listen for power chords in other songs. This wasn’t the first song to use power chords but it is one that used them throughout the song.
