Hi Guys,

Welcome to my lesson No. 84 called "Sweet Country Ballad"
This lesson is a beginner lesson and is focussed on using simple pentatonic scales to create a catchy melody.
The chord progression and also the structure AABA are very typical for this genre.

The most important thing here is using a wide range of dynamic to get a human feel!

Have fun!

The structure of the Jam track:

A Part 0:00-0:17
|F Eb/F F | Bb Bbm6| F/A Abdim |Gm7 BB/C |

A Part 0:18-0:29
|F Eb/F F | Bb Bbm6| F/A Abdim |Gm7 BB/C |

B Part 0:30-0:40
|Bb | Am7 A7| Dm| G7 |

A Part 0:41-0:56
|F Eb/F F | Bb Bbm6| F/A Abdim |Gm7 BB/C F|
Have fun! ;-)

Final words

I tried to transcribe as close as possible. Specially in the Guitar Pro file you'll find all this little extras!

Cheers - Guido
