Learn to Play Wish You Were Here on Guitar - Pink Floyd Cover

Wish You Were Here use the pattern: IV - V - II - I followed by: V - IV - II - I. The simple variation drives the tune forward and makes playing the song meditative. The opening licks Gilmour play use the minor pentatonic scale.

The 'Wish You Were Here' guitar part might be the most copied part for guitar ballads ever. The Stadium meets campfire trick have been attempted by so many rock bands since 'Wish You Were Here', it's actually difficult to think of one that doesn't sound a bit like "the original". As you saw in beginner lessons, most classic guitar ballads use the chords of G Am C and D.

Classic Acoustic Guitar Tricks

Even the hammer on's are classics, repeated many times since. It's hard to imagine an epic 'one acoustic guitar" kind of song before 'Wish You Were Here'. It is almost as if it is written to be played in a stadium. Copied by hundreds of other famous songs in progression, chord shapes and guitar style it is compulsory to learn a song like 'Wish You Were Here' note for note.

The video lesson is as close as guru could get it. No one can play it like Gilmour, but there's a great lesson in trying.

Solo:

The guitar solo is played over the same bass line as the verse,
but the keyboards hold down some different chords which are
fairly subtle but really add to the feel of the piece.

NB: This solo by David Gilmour is quite modular in its structure
so I haven't really arranged it in bars, rather it's just the tab
of the phrases played.

Hey there, it's me again.

The tab file will follow this message. 
Hopefully it will arrive in an unscramble form.  I'm not too hot with these
vax editors (well I'm a zoologist not a computer person).

A good plan would be for you to read it and play through it checking to see if
you can find any glaring mistakes.  Then add your name to the top and shove it
through to the appropriate destination.

Drop a line if you want.

Until Later,

Mark.
