Summer of '69 - Bryan Adams
The verses are just D A D A ... as many as needed with the change
occurring on every second bar. There is an additional two bars of D
at the start as well.
The way to play it is something like this:
D. . . . . . . . D. . . . . . . .
|-----------------|-----------------||-----------------|-----------------|
|-3-----3---------|-----------------||-3-----3---------|-------------3---|
|-2---2-2---2-2-2-|-2-2-2-2-2-2-----||-2---2-2---2-2-2-|-2-2-2-2-2-2-2---|

The dots show the beat.
Use moderate amounts of overdrive, and mute the 2's with your palm to get
the distinctive percussive sound. 0
The Chorus chords are |Bm|A|D|G|Bm|A|D|G|Bm|A| (I use B instead of Bm)
use standard open A,D, and G and a barred A shape for B.
The keyboard riff is sort of an arpegiated D and A ie.
D A
|-0-----2-----3---|---2-----0---2---|-----------------|------------------|
|---3-----3-----3-|-----3-----------|-0-----2-----3---|---2-----0----2---|
|-----2-----2-----|-2-----2---2---2-|---2-----2-----3-|-----2------------|
|-----------------|-----------------|-----2-----2-----|-2-----2----2---2-|
|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|------------------|
|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|------------------|
This sounds a bit messy with overdrive, so play it clean, or (even easier)
just play the melody part (which is mainly what you hear on the CD anyway)
e|-0-----2-----3---|---2-----0---2---|-----------------|------------------|
b|-----------------|-----------------|-0-----2-----3---|---2-----0---2----|
For the key change after the second chorus, the chords are:
|F|Bb|C|Bb|F|Bb|C|C| again use the barred A shape for Bb and C.
That's about all for Summer of '69

You will learn the most efficient practice routine that works fast.
Learn Guitar - Ultimate Guitar will show
you how to organize the fretboard and find any chord or scale.
Blues Guitar DVD Ultimate Blues Primer Will show you how to Jam with your friends!
We have received tons of thankyous
for these recommendations like this:
Hi Greg,
I've just finished the Amazing 7 day guitar course.
I have really enjoyed seeing my playing improve in just 7 days. I love the exercises that incorporate
learning the scales as that has always been a real challenge for me.
I have felt stuck in my playing for a while now but
after completing your course I am more confident, and more flexible!
the style of teaching is very simple yet extremely
effective way of teaching,
and I'm enjoying all the extras I received.
