@daztrashman I guess I wasn't really paying attention when I posted my last comment but I was still half right. It's in the key of C, either C major or C minor. Dorian and mixolydian also work. But it's not in A minor. An A minor chord is never played in this song. Even though C major and A minor are relatives, there is no way that this is in the key of A minor because an A chord is never played.
@drone713 *An A minor chord is never played in this song*
Yer very clearly wrong on this. A key becomes 'minor' when the third is flatted. True, the guitar player is only playing 2 notes (in this case, C + E) which COULD be considered the key of C. However......
The bass player is supplying the root or tonic note, which is, A!
Now, when the bass player is pounding out the A note, and the guitar player is playing C + E, what chord do those 3 notes produce together?
@TheFenderplecre Nope, it's in C. Yes, obviously I fucking tried C over this. It works perfectly. C Major and C Minor both work since this only using power chords and the third is not specified. However, the root in both cases is C and NEVER A.
@drone713 *Yes, obviously I fucking tried C over this. It works perfectly.*
Lol...of course it fucking works because C major is A natural minor! They're the EXACT same fucking notes! You can play the relative major in any minor key. You should have fucking tried playing the chords FIRST_ Am, Dm, Em.
I realize this is an old post, but this is for any newbies that might get confused by your fucking musical knowledge-and reasons to develop an ear for music so you can tell what key yer in.
I have recently seen vids of this guy. Never heared of him before, so I will asked this questions anyway. Is/was Winter a herion addict? He looks very ill and frail.
Johnny Winter is one of the premier blues/rock guitarists in history. In his prime, he was amongst the best of the best. He spent 9 months in rehab in 1972. "Let me in" is my favorite CD, but you may enjoy his R&R years from the 70's. He's clean, doing great and still performing.
The cords are Am with a bar at the fifth fret, Dm with a bar at the fifth fret and Em with a bar at the seventh fret. Play it as a typical 1, 4, 5 progression, Have fun.

@rknrne ...the posting wouldn't allow the measure count, but it's a 12 bar blues in Am
(relative minor of the Key of Cmajor) .
Play the 'notes' that sound good to you.
That's what music is.
