The Icarus Account - Little Things Tutorial

  • 0:01 - 0:02
    Hello everybody
  • 0:02 - 0:04
    This is Ty from The Icarus Account
  • 0:04 - 0:06
    And today I'm gonna teach you how to play
  • 0:06 - 0:07
    A song called "Little Things"
  • 0:07 - 0:09
    Which is off of our brand new album
  • 0:09 - 0:10
    "Love Is the Answer"
  • 0:10 - 0:13
    First thing about this song is that um
  • 0:13 - 0:14
    You wanna go in standard tuning
  • 0:14 - 0:15
    And then from there
  • 0:15 - 0:17
    You wanna drop everything a half step down
  • 0:17 - 0:19
    So your E string
  • 0:19 - 0:21
    Is gonna turn into a D sharp
  • 0:21 - 0:23
    A string is gonna be G sharp
  • 0:23 - 0:25
    D string is gonna be C sharp
  • 0:25 - 0:27
    G strings gonna be a F sharp
  • 0:27 - 0:30
    Your B string is going to be an A sharp
  • 0:30 - 0:33
    And your E string is gonna be D sharp
  • 0:33 - 0:35
    After you do that, um
  • 0:35 - 0:37
    You wanna tune your B string
  • 0:37 - 0:39
    Up to a C sharp
  • 0:39 - 0:41
    So it should be even with
  • 0:41 - 0:43
    Your other C sharp
  • 0:43 - 0:44
    Which is on the D string
  • 0:44 - 0:48
    And then you wanna tune your E string
  • 0:48 - 0:51
    Your high E string down to a C sharp
  • 0:51 - 0:54
    So you're gonna have an open chord
  • 0:54 - 0:55
    Kind of, in a way
  • 0:55 - 0:58
    And um, this song is very easy
  • 0:58 - 1:00
    There's only two chords..
  • 1:00 - 1:01
    Three cords in the whole song
  • 1:01 - 1:05
    Um first chord is right there
  • 1:05 - 1:06
    Just like that
  • 1:06 - 1:09
    You wanna have your third finger
  • 1:09 - 1:11
    On the third fret of the A string
  • 1:11 - 1:13
    And your second finger
  • 1:13 - 1:16
    On the second fret of the D string
  • 1:16 - 1:19
    And you wanna just play it open like that
  • 1:19 - 1:20
    And you do not want to hit the low
  • 1:20 - 1:20
    E string
  • 1:21 - 1:23
    It's really really simple just like that
  • 1:23 - 1:25
    The next chord is the same
  • 1:25 - 1:26
    Same exact, fingers
  • 1:26 - 1:30
    You just move it up to the 10th fret
  • 1:31 - 1:33
    So you're gonna have your third finger
  • 1:33 - 1:34
    On the 10th fret of the A string
  • 1:34 - 1:36
    And your second finger on the
  • 1:36 - 1:38
    9th fret of the D string
  • Not Synced
