Measures 9 & 10 of a Bossa Nova Guitar Song in E Flat Major

RYAN LARSON: So we went over our first two chords of the bridge. Now, we're going to go over the next two. And again, write all these chords down at home. We have the A flat major going to a D flat 7. So we analyze that as a 4, right? E, F, G, A going to a flat 7, right? Instead of D, we have a D flat. Then we going to find those two chords. So our 4, we already found it. It was up here, right? One, 2, 3, 4. And to get to 7, we have to go down, 1, 7. So this is good. It's a nice jump. We have our 4 major chord. No, right here, 4 major, and we got to jump down to our flat 7. So 4 major, this is good for your dexterity. Again, jumping from our 4 to our flat 7, so we're going from our two extremes of the scale from this end to that end, but it's great for our dexterity and it's not really that far of a jump. It's a great thing to get under your fingers. So those are our next two chords, and we're going to go on in just a minute.
