Feels Like the First Time Foreigner Аккорды, тексты песен, видео.

Here is my cover of this classic song with the "instantly recognizable" riffs.
When I say "my cover"; this is how I play it. This is in a 3-piece band,
so all guitar(s) parts AND keyboard parts are performed on guitar, which gives
you quite a workout!
This is not the key that this song was recorded in (Foreigner recorded it a
full step lower); this is how we play it in our group (we may have used this
key for the singer). The real beauty of this key is letting that

string ring
open (tabbed as 0 here) to hold this melody line.
To get that drone

(which is a drone

in my version), you would have to tune
your guitar a whole step, OR, tune your

to a

and play the Intro as such:
[D--------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------

--/4--4--4---4-2---2---2-22-2--2--2--22---4~~~---------

--/5--5--5---5-3---3---3-22-2--2--2--22---5~~~---------]
[G-----0-----0------0---0---------------------------------] < De-tuned to G!
[E--------------------------------------------------------]
Although the above is very close to the recording…
ME?, I prefer this way (tuned 440):
h=hammer on o=pull off =Slide down /=Slide up
Intro:
V--Bass & Drums come in here

Experiment.. double pick some of these chords!!

Play around and find what fits the group you’re playing it with.
Verse parts:
[D--(2)(222)(2)(222)-------------------------------------

---0--000--0--000--------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------]
I would climb any mountain…… Sail across the stormy sea..
Concentrate on the open

note, but occasionally add the ghost “E” on
the

string. Experiment, you’ll see what I’m saying.
This is the fill I use after the first line, second verse:
(bass plays this subtle the first verse)
[D-----------2---

-----------0---

---0-2-3-------

--(2)(222)(2)(222)-------------------------------------

---0--000--0--000--------------------------------------

If that’s what it takes me baby… etc…

I guess it’s the woman in you… etc…
Return to Intro parts for the chorus:
[E---------------------------------------------

--55--5-5-53--3----3-3--3--3---3-3-3----5---

--66--6-6-64--4----2-2--2--2---2-2-2----6---

--00--0-0-0-0--0----0-0--0--0---0-0-0----0---

---------------------------------------------]
Feels like the first time, etc…
Now for the keyboard type parts:
Bass plays -

…

[E-------------------------------------------------------

--12-9-10-----------------------------10-9--------910--

----------11-Play this riff 6X then ------11-10-11--11~

-------------------------------------------------------

--12-9-10-----------------------------10-9--------910--

----------11-Play this riff 6X then ------11-10-11--11~

-------------------------------------------------------

--12-9-10-----------------------------10-9--------910--

----------11-Play this riff 6X then ------11-10-11--11~

-------------------------------------------------------

--12-9-10-----------------------------10-9--------910--

----------11-Play this riff 6X then ------11-10-11--11~

-------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------]
Then back to the verse part but first you play this at the end of the above:

…… E…
Never againnnnn……..
[E---------------------------------------------

--55--5-5-53--3----3-3--3--3---3-3-3----5---

--66--6-6-64--4----2-2--2--2---2-2-2----6---

--77--7-7-75--5----4-4--4--4---4-4-4----7---

--00--0-0-0-0--0----0-0--0--0---0-0-0----0---

---------------------------------------------]
Feels like the first time, etc…
Then there is the hammer on/pull off type lead after this chorus (above):
[E-------------------------------------------------------

-8h0o8h0o- etc.-7h0o7h0o etc.-6h0o6h0o etc.- hold 5h0o-

-------------------------------------------------------]
Now the above, at first, seems like the standard hammer on pull off,
but listen closely!! Each note is PICKED as well as ho/po!!!!
You may have to practice to get your coordination on this one….
This is pretty much it. Remember, to play with the recorded version,
just move down a full step.
