    Lovers of music everywhere lost a great songwriter and master showman last week. I'll never forget his 2007 Super Bowl Halftime show, shredding a wild guitar solo in a you'll-drown-if-you-look-up downpour.
    The song was, appropriately enough, "Purple Rain."
    In honor of Prince, here's a video lesson on how to play "Purple Rain" using finger-friendly open chords. It's rare that a song like this with such unusual, distinctive voicings can be played with such relatively easy chords. Enjoy!

    This sounds so close to the original, I didn't think it would work when first trying it but, I was proved wrong after a couple of attempts and that F# bass note is just class. Thank you.

    Hey Rob, I’ve been looking for an “easier” version of this song for a while without losing its true melody and you nailed it here. I’m more a rock/metal beginning/intermediate player but I don’t think anyone could say Prince isn’t an amazing guitarist as well as an overall musician. Thank you for posting this and you’ve gained another follower.

    It's funny bc I figured out last night out to play it with that f# and low and behold u pop up!!! This version sounds great imo. Add some chorus and reverb and it's money

    Great job ! In some guitar lesson, people play F#m7 or F#m11 instead of Asus2/F#. And with a capo on 1s fret... Anyway it sounds good. Thanks for this very detailed tutorial !

    • @HeartwoodGuitarInstruction
      @HeartwoodGuitarInstruction  8 років тому +2

      +Lag Man Glad you dug it! Those other chord names are usually used for the same chord as Asus2/F#. Three ways of naming the same chord. And yes, to play in the same key as the original recording, Capo 1. Thanks for clarifying this.

      @GaryBook 5 років тому

      The original is done in B flat, but if you use your chords then just capo at first fret. Bruce Springsteen does it I believe capo on third fret of course with different chords. Jeff Beck I believe does it with your chords. Nice job simplifying it. Solo in A or F minor with your chords.

      @RobHampton 8 років тому +1

      +CatPerez2012 I totally should have done the oooh's at the end! Sorry I left them out. About the printout--the link's in the description. Or did you mean something else?

    • @CatPerez2012
      @CatPerez2012 8 років тому

      Hey thanks..! That was an awesome lesson.
      Powerful. In my haste, I didn't realize the links were there....Can you at least co-ordinate the chords to the Ohhhh's?
      Does he start the first Oooh at Dsus 2?
      ...thanks

    What about adding the 2cnd string 3rd fret to your Em at the end of your verseEmsus2 let's say - only wanna....A? Sounds funky - what u think?

    • @RobHampton
      @RobHampton 3 роки тому +1

      I think you mean adding it to the E chord, right? (not Em). Anyway, YES! That turns it into an E7, which is what Prince's melody suggests too. Sounds great.

    Prince didn't write it...That's why it's only 4 chords.

      Where'd you hear this? Wikipedia talks about Prince working it out with his bandmates, but he being the primary songwriter.
