      Hey Jeff. Thank you so much for your comment. I really love teaching and/or sharing knowledge. I was fortunate to have a lot guitar players over the years take the time help me. It meant a lot when someone patiently walked me through various guitar learning. I havent forgot it 🙂. Thanks again.

    Chris, THANK you so much for giving this detailed lesson, the VERY BEST lesson for Hard Luck Woman on the entire UA-cam channel!... I only wish that you had put the camera closer to your guitar... We wouldn't be able to see the nice room you're in, but it would be closer to your hands and Easier to see what you're Doing.. Although, thankfully you gave a pretty good description of most of it... Again, GREAT JOB!... I WISH YOU could give LESSONS, to Everyone Else who tries to GIVE a lesson, on UA-cam!... Mike, long time guitarist

    • @ChristopherCox
      @ChristopherCox  2 роки тому +1

      That's a G Major played the 3rd position. So if you know the full bar chord for G Major across all 6 strings, just take away the low E and A strings. 5th fret D, 4th fret G, and 3rd fret B and high E string.

    • @ChristopherCox
      @ChristopherCox  5 років тому

      Hey William. Yes, I did cover the 2nd verse. It's the same as the MTV unplugged arrangement. At 17:30 mark in the video I play the entire song if that helps. Thanks.

    • @WilliamT1964
      @WilliamT1964 5 років тому +1

      @@ChristopherCox With all due respect, that is incorrect. That is not the way it's played on Unplugged. However, the part I reference is in the Unplugged version, and pretty much every other version, back to the original studio recording. At the end of the first chorus, they do not do the little lick which ends back on the C chord, because the C changes abruptly to the Dm. The passage is "You'll be a [F]Hard [Am]Luck [Dm]Woman...[F]Baby til you [G]find your [C]man(2-3-4-) [Dm]Before I [G]go let me [Dm]kiss you, etc etc..."...then everything else you played is the same. That's the only time the chords in the chorus differ. Here's a pretty good closeup of Paul playing the part I reference, and he is clearly seen playing the chords as I outlined, which came from the original sheet music. :) ua-cam.com/video/XsV0b-YTUNM/v-deo.htmlm25s It's a subtle thing, but it's there, although it is often overlooked.

    • @ChristopherCox
      @ChristopherCox  5 років тому +3

      @@WilliamT1964 Ok I think I know what section you're talking about now. On the Unplugged version the turn-around guitar lick that's played before the transition to D minor (just before the 2nd verse) ends on an open D note. The same turn around lick is played in the chorus. I felt like this did not work well with a single guitar. So I transposed this part. Sorry for the confusion. I appreciate the questions. No offense taken at all.

    • @ChristopherCox
      @ChristopherCox  5 років тому +7

      @@WilliamT1964 I spend a lot time & thought putting these lessons together, and I try to stay as true to the song as possible. I realize there's probably more than 1 part that's not exactly how Kiss plays the song. This is a labor love for me doing the Kiss guitar lessons. The beautiful thing about music is sometimes it's up the interpretation of the individual . I have worked on certain songs for years and will discover new parts or subtleties that I might not have heard before. Again, I transposed certain parts for a single guitar arrangement because I felt it flowed better.

      @@ChristopherCox Your arrangement for the song is the best I’ve heard. It sounds great. But for a beginner like myself, it’s difficult to keep up. I had a hard time distinguishing between your referencing of strings or notes. When you say “D” sometimes you mean the note and other times, the string. For example on most tutorial videos, the instructor would reference “the 3rd fret on the A string”. Perhaps your intention was to target intermediate to advanced players in this video.

      @ChristopherCox  2 роки тому +2

      @@soaringeagle5227 Thanks so much. I understand. I would say you're correct in saying this lesson was more for an intermediate player. However, I can make a couple of recommendations. I would focus on switching from chord to chord 1st vs. playing the melodies inside the chords. Once you switch from chord to chord and keep in time, then take on the melodies in little pieces at a time. This is a challenging tune even for an intermediate player. My old guitar teacher used to suggests this to me and I still use it today. Take it 1 bar at a time.

      Hang in there with it Mike. Sometimes I take a break from a difficult song and revisit it a week or 2 later with fresh hands and ears. It can get frustrating if we spend too much time on a song. Also, try to identify the areas you're having the most difficulty with and slowly work out those parts instead of tackling the entire song at once. Take care my friend.
