What is up guys? This next song I want to do is called “I Will Follow You into the Dark”. It is done Deathcab for Cutie. That is got a few different people requesting this one. So, what I am going to do is. Of course, the chords are missing. Alright, there is so much of tabs that I found on Ultimate Guitar. I am going to teach you this how to strum it. All the chords that I teach you strum, whether it is like, [Demonstration] Dm to F, [Demonstration] Bb, [Demonstration] F, C, if you are more advance, you want to learn like how they play with the picking and stuff. Just do the same chords and just mixing your picking pattern like they start at the Verse in asking if, [Demonstration] It is like a Dm, [Demonstration] It a C, [Demonstration] Whatever, [Demonstration] I am not going to worry about that, and I do not know advance people are requesting that stuff. If you are advanced enough that you wanted the picking. I am sure you will figure that out yourself and the chords and I like to put a link to the picking tab too. But I am going to teach to strum it. So what I am going to do, the chords are all in this tab. The Intro is a Dm, it is a Dm, pointer finger goes on high E, I fret, [Demonstration] Middle finger goes on the II fret, fourth string down, and fifth string down III fret ring finger, [Demonstration] This is sound like this, [Demonstration] So, you start with Dm, [Demonstration] To an F. When we go to F, you want to leave that middle finger right there where it is, it is kind of a common finger, [Demonstration] Then you mover this ring finger and pinky over to the second and third string on your A and D string, III fret. Your pointer finger barre, [Demonstration] Next, you go to the Bb. So, B barre chord would be up here like this. It is your mini barre. You are going to move it down, [Demonstration] That is a B. So, Bb is one step down, [Demonstration] So for that, you are going to barre across these bottom five strings through pointer finger, then, you are going to make this little mini barre. So, you cover the D, G and B strings on the III fret. [Demonstration] That is an F, [Demonstration] Then enter the C, [Demonstration] Alright, and for that, F to the C, [Demonstration] It is ring finger does not move. So, that is your common finger there to help you move more-better. Then, you go back to Dm, [Demonstration] It is an F, [Demonstration] C. [Demonstration] Then Dm, [Demonstration] F. [Demonstration] Then A, [Demonstration] Back to Dm, [Demonstration] C, [Demonstration] Bb, [Demonstration] And then a Bbm. [Demonstration] This is a Bb, that is a Major chord, Bb. [Demonstration] To go to minor, you just put this ring finger on the third string down III fret, pinky is right below III fret fourth string down, ring goes fifth string down II fret. [Demonstration] That is your Bbm, sound weird but it how to play the song. That strumming there at the beginning is kind of like one thing is kind of like, [Demonstration] It goes really quick so, just practice that strumming pattern. The Verse goes from an F. [Demonstration] “Someday you will die”, this is Dm. [Demonstration] “But I will be closer behind”, Bb. [Demonstration] “I will follow you”, C into the Dark, [Demonstration] Or as follow you, F. [Demonstration] Into dark, C, [Demonstration] Then F, the blinding line. [Demonstration] “Our tunnels to gates of white” is Dm, [Demonstration] Bb, [Demonstration] “Waiting for” F, [Demonstration] C, [Demonstration] And then the Chorus is Dm, “if heaven”. [Demonstration] “And hell decide”, F, [Demonstration] “And there we both”, Bb, [Demonstration] “Satisfied”, F. [Demonstration] So, it is F, [Demonstration] C, Then a Dm “eliminate”. [Demonstration] “The nose”, F, [Demonstration] C, [Demonstration] Then, the same pay then, except it is that was brilliance like the Intro, it goes Dm, “if there is no one beside you”. [Demonstration] It is an F, the “beside you”, [Demonstration] “Your soul” is in A, [Demonstration] “Soul embarks”,
