G# Cm7b5 (adlib G# Blues lick after every line)
I want a little girl, who loves me a lot
[C#m]You know that I would give her, everything[C#m7] that I got
[G#7]Say, I[F#7] want a little gi[F7]rl, t[Bb]o fall in lo[D#]ve with [G#]me[A] [G#]
Riff notes; I recommend G# Blues in the forth position,
Begin the lick on 1st or 7th degree (maybe on the 4th),
make sure to fill with 1,4, 5 and 7 degree notes
and end on root or 5th depending on the verse.
Note B: You can add harmonic motion by adding a slide one half step
to A or A9 then back to the original chord (in this case G# or G#9).
I you choose the G#9 find a position not to far up the neck. . .I
find that it is not as warm in terms of base.
Notes:
This by no means is the exact guitar version as played by Andy F.Low.
Most of the chords are presented by their quality; therefore, I have omitted
flattened / sharpened 5th, 7th and 9th chord voicings. Although I believe
that this version is 95%, there is definitely room for improvement and personal
additions. I just want to thank all of you that post; you definitely have
made my life more enjoyable with your hard work and selflessness.
I really hope this version brings you a lot of applause and truck loads of
sh*ts and giggles.
