Hello GMC.
This lesson is a tribute to great Michael Jackson
who tragically died on 25th June 2009, in age of 50.
I've chosen song called "You Are Not Alone" (album History, 1995)
composed by Robert Sylvester Kelly cause IMO
it's one of the finest ballads and also a great example
of how to compose an epic tune with just a few chords,
simple melody, simple structure etc.
One thing that is really interesting about this song
is the fact that verse and chorus are almost identical,
chords are 100% the same while melody kind a varies a little,
both note and rhythm wise.
In 1st part of this tribute we'll cover verse, bridge, chorus and C part.
Of course, we'll be playing vocal line only plus few extra licks
that I've made on my own.
Key is B major but there are few "out" chords,
just to spice it up a little, tempo is 60 BPM.
Hope you'll like the lesson.
R.I.P. Michael.
