See when musicians are going to make an album sometimes they go into the studio and do quick mock up recordings of the song just to get the basic ideas down, and prep for an album. Well that's exactly what Glen Campbell did with this song. • Apparently he rounded up some fellow studio musicians from the Wrecking Crew included a guy named Leon Russell who was credited as Russell Bridges, and they went into Capital Studios in Hollywood to do a quick demo. On the demo Campbell was yelling out instructions to the band members to play certain things in between his vocal phrases and Campbell left the rough recording for their producer to hear at the studio. • The producer later heard the demo and loved it so much that without telling Campbell he went back into the tape machine and edited out the unwanted talking in the take and released the song as is, and it became a mega-hit for Campbell! • I'll break down a main acoustic guitar part through the entire song in this lesson. • Glen Campbell Gentle On My Mind Guitar Lesson Chapters • 0:00 - Introduction • 2:05 - Intro chord progression (capo 3) • 3:40 - Strumming pattern • 5:08 - Verse • 8:45 - Second half • 10:35 - Second part play through • 11:09 - Last verse variation • 11:30 - Full play through • 12:42 - Congrats, here's what to do next • 🎤Lyrics: • It's knowing that your door is always open • And your path is free to walk • That makes me tend to leave my sleeping bag • Rolled up and stashed behind your couch • And it's knowing I'm not shackled • By forgotten words and bonds • And the ink stains that are dried upon some line • That keeps you in the backroads • By the rivers of my memory • That keeps you ever gentle on my mind • It's not clinging to the rocks and ivy • Planted on their columns now that bind me • Or something that somebody said • Because they thought we fit together walking • It's just knowing that the world will not be cursing • Or forgiving when I walk along some railroad track and find • That you're moving on the backroads • By the rivers of my memory • And for hours you're just gentle on my mind • Though the wheat fields and the clothes lines • And the junkyards and the highways come between us • And some other woman's cryin' to her mother • 'Cause she turned and I was gone • I still might run in silence tears of joy might stain my face • And the summer sun might burn me 'til I'm blind • But not to where I cannot see you walkin' on the backroads • By the rivers flowing gentle on my mind • I dip my cup of soup back from a gurglin' • Cracklin' caldron in some train yard • My beard a rustling, cold towel, and • A dirty hat pulled low across my face • Through cupped hands 'round the tin can • I pretend to hold you to my breast and find • That you're waiting from the backroads • By the rivers of my memories • Ever smilin' ever gentle on my mind • • Gentle On My Mind Guitar Lesson (Glen... • #glencampbell #countryguitarlesson
