DON’T FEAR THE REAPER – Guitar Lesson

"I GOTTA HAVE MORE COWBELL!"  SNL's hilarious skit belies the value of Blue Oyster Cults' 1976 poem about eternal love. A classic song with a classic riff. Here's your Don't Fear the Reaper guitar lesson.

HERE"S THE CHORD PATTERN

Let the open 'G' ring out each time

  Am G F G Am G F G
  All     our  times  have  come.  ( musi c )  
  Am G F G Am G F G
  Here    but  now    they're   gone.  ( musi c )  

  F G Am
  Seasons don't  fear the reap er   nor
  F E Am
do the  wind,  the  sun or the rain.      We
  G F G Am
can  be like they  are.    Come on ba by.  Don't

nice website.  pretty cool!  I think it would be nice if you could have a written version of the songs showing the chord progessions, maybe have some play along videos for practice, but overall, really cool site.  You make it look easy man.
