F A# why can’t you be blue over me? ive included a couple of variations on the a and Asus chords in this one . these have been provided for convenience . the one you play should be dictated by where you are on the neck . i tend to use both of the as it just depends which chord ive just played and where i need to be next . if you play the open A on the "over me" part , then you can play the leading notes for the second part of that first verse E , F# , G# and then play the barre A , which puts you in the right area of the neck to grab the barre C#7 . obviously , if you play the barre A , then youll also play the barre Asus . for the verses , the leading notes are played on the sixth string . the leading notes for the C#7 going into the chorus are played on the fifth string . these notes are A , B and C . after playing the C , immediately fret and play the C#7 barre . the key change in the outro has a nice chromatic progression of A# , A , A# , B and C . you can either play these as full chords , or as chord fragments . i prefer to play them as chord fragments , since it gives it an edgier sound . play those as : A# A A# B C E | - - 1 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - | B | - - 3 - - - 2 - - - 3 - - - 4 - - - 5 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - | G | - - 3 - - - 2 - - - 3 - - - 4 - - - 5 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - | D | - - 3 - - - 2 - - - 3 - - - 4 - - - 5 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - | A | - - 1 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - | E | - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - | notice the A# used here is different than the one diagramed at the top of the page . this is done to keep your hand in close proximity to the C7 and the F in the outro . the leading notes just prior to the key change in the outro are F , G and A . play these on the sixth string . intermediate to advanced players should have no problems with this song and will probably figure out ways to make it sound even better . i’ve gone back and made some changes to the song i originally submitted . after listening to the chorus again , i realized there were some additional chords i had missed . i have edited the submission to include those . i have also included the bluesy double - stops in the outro , just before the last A# .
