This lesson will teach you how to play the melody in measures 23 & 24 of Cry me a River. To listen to the Melody Tab for the whole song go to the MELODY TAB video. Go to the COMBINED ARRANGEMENT Measures 23 & 24 page to find out what notes could be added to the melody, or the CHORDS Lesson Measures 23 & 24 page to find out how to play the supporting chords.

Video Script:

for the first guitar note in these two measures place the

1st finger, on the 1st string, 2nd fret

followed by the

1 string open

these notes are then repeated another twice

followed by the

4th finger, on the 1st string, 4th fret

and then the

1st string open

for the rhythm of the notes in this measure count

1 an a, 2 an, 3 an, 4 an

the second of these measures is exactly the same as the first measure

The arrangement of the melody and the manner in which the melody is played in this lesson could easily sit with the title “Jazz Guitar lesson” or “Classical Guitar lesson” and should be interesting to players from both genres.
