Try some variation to it and make up your own licks - that is something that is very easy to do - with time and practice.

It is a great little piece that you can use over and over again. To begin the melodic piece you should be sure you raise your LH fingers vertically off the fretboard so you will have adequate clearance between strings, and the notes can all ring through each other very nicely, without being muted by a fretted note.īe sure to memorize this lick as you will be able to use it on other songs too. Look carefully at the LH fingering so you can play this properly, because if you do not use the proper fingering, you will not be able to play this melodic lick. This again is a melodic passage and you should make your guitar sound like a harp. The final area we will look at will the the 12th fret. You may even decide to try a delayed slide to make the timing through here to add some Syncopation to the break. Be sure to end the slides very cleanly and clearly to make the note sound very clearly. The 10th measure offers even more complexity as we run through a slide, then immediately to a hammer-on, followed by the final slide. I know this will take quite a bit of strength in your fingers and practice, but once you achieve it, you will improve your playing skills exponentially. These ornamentals are played directly after each other, so work on execution and smoothness to get this timing right and allow the note to sound very clearly so it is difficult to distinguish the difference between a picked note or a hammer-on or pull-off.

In the 8th measure, we use a series of pull-offs and hammer-ons to achieve this special effect. Be sure not to lift a finger until it is absolutely necessary. The best way to accomplish this it to continue to hold fretted notes, while you play the open strings.Īlso, you should hold multiple fingers on the fretted notes, longer than their time duration would indicate to achieve this effect. To make this sound correctly, you have to let the notes ring through each other, to create a harp-like sound.

This is where we start the first melodic passage. The first area you should work diligently on occurs in the 4th measure. All of these ornamentals will help you in achieving more speed and smoothness when playing this break. As played here there are a lot more slides, hammer-ons, pull-offs and even some melodic-type passages.

I have stepped up the complexity of this piece a few notches for this intermediate level break. The three principle chords in C Major are C, F and G7, and all three of them are represented in this break and the melody follows these chord forms that are used for the rhythm. This song, as tabbed here, is written in the key of C Major. If you would like to view the first lesson, you can go to: Wabash Cannonball Beginner Tab.

His earthly race is over and as the curtain falls Wabash Cannonball lyrics and chords are intended for your personal use only, it a great old country classic recorded by Hank Thompson as well as many other. Now heres to daddy claxton may his name forever standĪnd always be remembered in the courts of all the land Now theirs a gal from Birmingham she's Elong and she's tall she came down DShes the combination, on the Wabash CannonGball. She pulled in to the station one cold December dayĪs she rolled up to the platform you could hear all the people say Your tDravelin through the jungles on the Wabash CannonGball. To the lake of Minnesota where the rippling waters flow no chances to be Now the western states are dandies so the southern people say from Chicago

He's riding through the jungle on the Wabash cannon ball Hear the rush of the mighty engine hear the lonesome hobos call Listen to the jingle the rumble and the roar as she glides along the woodland
