Liar - Jelly Roll (play-along for guitar)

Details

Description

This is a screen-capture video from a TuneLing for "Liar" from the album "Beautifully Broken", by Jelly Roll.

This song is also available in a separate TuneLing video for ukulele!

Notes:

Jelly Roll can't seem to stop making hit records lately - there's just something compelling about his voice and attitude.

So here's another one, with an underlying fast strumming groove under a fairly normal tempo, and chords that are pretty approachable on both guitar (with capo) and ukulele (without capo).

The only points to stress are the importance of light strumming to emphasize that rapid rhythm, but without smashing every sixteenth note to death. Don't feel like to you have to strum every subdivision of each beat - just use it enough to convey that train-like undercurrent, as you feel it.

There's also a (minor, optional) stop at bar 18 to watch out for.

Outside of that, this one is not complicated, and not extremely challenging, so get into that groove, and ENJOY!
