How To Play Can T You See

I got turned onto The Marshall Tucker Band by my all-time friend. My get-go of many passes through their catalog was fun, merely and then I heard one song and thought, "I need to know how to play this Right! Now!" Information technology was Can't You See, and it became something of an anthem for me at various campouts and bonfires. I imagine you're here considering this vocal inspired you just like it inspired me!

Today I'thou going to teach you how to play Can't You Meet including the chords to the song and the acoustic guitar introduction. Yep, there are some sweetness guitar riffs that Toy Caldwell plays on his Les Paul, and I programme on making a time to come post or adding to this post to comprehend some of these in the time to come. For now, allow'due south effigy out how to play the chords and piece of work on the fingerstyle intro.

And if you wanted to learn more about the song and testify off how much musical history you know, check out Can't Y'all See'south Wikipedia page! I always learn something new when I first reading a vocal'south wiki page!

The Chords

This is a 3 chord vocal, which makes it perfect for a beginner to strum and sing along to. It makes use of a D chord, a C2 chord, and a G chord. To put this in Nashville numbers, the song is in the fundamental of D and follows a I-VII-IV (1-7-4) progression. It'southward actually interesting because if the vocal happened to be in the key of Grand, you would have the same chords in a I-Four-V (ane-four-v) progression which is constantly found in pop, country, and rock music. It makes me wonder if The Marshall Tucker band knew what they were doing theory wise, or if they simply played the ane-four-5 progression backward and idea, "Hey man, that sounds really skilful!"
