00:11what's up everybody and welcome back to another video today's going to be stone temple pilots
00:17sex type thing if you like the video please hit that like button subscribe down below
00:23truly truly appreciate it stone temple pilots sex type thing stick around okay so sex type thing
00:31by stone temple pilots it's a it's a to me it's annoying it's like a pretty annoying song to play
00:37i thought it was in drop de-tuning because it seems like there should be an easier way to play
00:41this
00:41yeah so it's
00:50again uh yeah it seems like there's no way this is how it would be played because it seems
00:56oddly difficult now this is based on a tab i saw so there's probably it's probably like wrong
01:01but it's not it sounds right but it's probably the wrong way to play it it's probably like either
01:05in a different tuning or something but what i'm showing is i guess a way to play it
01:11it's seven seven which is also odd pretty pretty odd seven seven on the low e and
01:21a oh first of all open e
01:26so open e to seven seven open e to six seven now all of this is seven so the easiest
01:33way to say it is
01:33so it's so supposedly you're keeping your finger on the seventh fret of the a and you're gonna hit
01:39open after all of them too not every single one but for the first part so it's seven seven six
01:45seven five seven three seven
01:51see
01:53i'm sorry about if i'm teaching this i did i never learned it i didn't see any other tab basically
02:00so like i learned it this way but this seems it seems just way too complicated it's gotta be like
02:06an easier way so again seven seven open seven seven open six seven open five seven open three seven
02:24two
02:28three five three five three seven five seven five seven three seven so open
02:44maybe it's just maybe you don't need the seven
02:49hold on as i'm doing this i'm thinking maybe you don't need the seven can you just go
03:06maybe it's just that or it's drop detuning i'm thinking maybe it's drop detuning i don't know
03:12i'm learning as i'm going on i saw a tab you hold the seventh fret
03:23i mean it's doable number one if you have big hands and you kind of want to keep the pinky
03:28on
03:29the yeah if you're gonna do this the way i'm drawing it which is complicated as hell
03:34keeping your pinky on the seventh fret of the a you're gonna go seven open seven open six
03:42open five open three five three open
04:01now if you have a small hand i don't know that there's no way that's the way you do it
04:05i'm sorry
04:06there's no way i i i i think you should just drop the seventh on the a and just do
04:10all open
04:12open low e with that same exact pattern minus the seventh i mean if you can do it it just
04:18seems like
04:18it i don't know what the tab is i don't know oh never mind uh yeah so it's that that's
04:23the main
04:23riff of the song now to get past that once you get past that
04:41again that's a little off too uh you want to go you're bouncing off of f sharp power chord
04:47from the two on the uh low e to open on the low e you're keeping the the fourth fret
04:53on the a and d
04:54barred you're doing a full f sharp no you're starting with the actual open then do a full open so
05:25that's the so you're gonna get it's the timing is just kind of have to just do it over and
05:29over
05:29again but yeah you're just bouncing you're letting go and you're putting it back letting go putting it
05:33back on the uh second fret of the low e there is that something like that now why you'd want
05:54to
05:54throw that in right in the middle of doing already that just to make it more complicated the mutant
06:03is up down down but you can go there's that little bit of that extra it's very hitting the harmonic
06:12i don't know yeah there's the little dick at that okay to the chorus
06:33b two four four to a open two two to g you can just do open two three you don't
06:40have to do the
06:41full one you could do it all power if you wanted to go like
06:48i just realized that's probably easier you could do a b up here 799 to a a right down three
06:57five seven
06:58seven seven to a d five seven seven drop into the a any way you want
07:11does not matter but it's b b b a d d d a b b b a so b is
07:19one two three four a is once
07:23to d four times so yeah the a is just a bounce off so
07:34now the only other thing is the bridge uh is there really a need um what the the tab shows
07:41is a
07:44okay seven six five no sorry seven six seven five starting on the a seven
07:52six seven a right up to uh move all that entire shape up to a ninth fret so it would
08:03be nine eight
08:04nine seven move all that up to the 11th 11 10 11 9
08:14move all that up to the 13th 13 12 13 11
08:27and that's where it stops you let that ring out it's like
08:55now is that really needed i mean come on those chords i mean come on do we really need that
09:01now again i'm sorry for that first riff i don't know i'm not even gonna bother it seems way too
09:08complicated so that tab might be wrong so i'm apologizing if it made it harder to do anyways
09:13that was sex type thing by stone double pilot okay so that'll do it for another video until next time
