Whiskey Lullaby

Here's my imperfect rendition of this song. I've got a few mistakes and a phone call in the end which is par for the course. I play it in the key of E, which is the key the original singer and songwriter Jon Randall plays and sings it in. He does a beautiful version of the song, check the man out if you get the chance. He cowrote this song with "Whispering" Bill Anderson. I dedicate this to some of my friends who went through this, and didn't make it. Sadly..they are gone now. Thank God I almost became one too, but, I made it through the other side. I'll post another video without so many mistakes in the future, and I'll teach it to those interested in learning it. Damn..now it's out of sync too. It's ok on my pc, but, out of sync on You Tube. Watz up wit dat? I'll try & fix it when I get time. YaY!! I got my first comment finally! I waited a while before I finally recieved one and I finally got one. Too bad it had to be "YOU SUCK" LoL. Oh well. I just am trying to learn computers and I displayed this imperfect rendition of this song I need to rehearse more really before I post it. I just want to experiment and see what it's like. You tube and all this is new to me & my generation never imagined all this computer stuff would be what it is today. So, I'm trying to learn it, and I'm trying to sing more. I've played in bands in the past and I get tired of LSD (lead singers disease for you non-musicians....you wouldn't understand it unless you've experienced it, and you'll never forget it once you do..I first ran into it in 1981 or so). Anyways..I'm trying to be independent and learn to sing and play. Too many damn good guitar players out there! LoL. I gotta learn to sing some too.

~Thanks for posting...I have a close friend struggling with addiction and depression...I hope she breaks free from it..it's painful to watch her go through it...~~

[slimbuttermilk]

thanks for ur positive post. I wish your friend the best. This song was almost me. And it does reflect the story of quite a few dear friends of mine, who didn't make it through the struggles of life. My prayers and heart goes out to her and her family. Take care.

Man that was really good how do you find the tabs to play that song like that ive been trying to learn how to play that song but all I find is just chords I cant find the Arpeggio... Chords !!!!!

[slimbuttermilk]

Thanks for your nice words. I don't really know Tabs. The main riff is derived from a combo of the Dmajor & Bminor chord. Just use your 1st finger on the bnote on the 5th string and pick the top two strings from the D form and use descending and open strings to ascending to the Gmajor chord, with the melody of the chorus. The other chords, just pick out D,G,bmin,A. pick some connecting notes between the A and the Bminor for passing tones. I did it all by ear & I saw Brad doing the same thing

on a live version at the Old Grand Ole Opry. I was just learning the song when I recorded this, and trying to figure out how to do all this camera and downloading stuff. ...so sorry for the mistakes. I recorded it with capo on the 2nd fret, making it in the key of Emajor like Jon Randall does it..who co-wrote the song with "Whispering" Bill Anderson. Jon sang it on the Grand Ole Opry once after being introduced by Vince Gill as a friend of 20 years...what an honor, huh? Good luck man & thanks !!
