Alicia Keys - No One (Guitar Tutorial)

23rd September

I got a request to figure out Alicia Keys’ No one, in the same style as the Outkast vid I’ve uploaded a while ago.
I like the song and I had some time to spare this afternoon, so I gave it a try. It’s more of an impression, but
as you can see it’s doable. If you want it to be perfect, you’ll have to put some effort in it. She sings a lot of notes
in so few bars…insane.
Chords I use: C,G,Am,F and play the melody with the index and pinky, bass notes with the ring and middle finger.

Sorry ’bout the sloppy camerawork, at least the tutorial at the end is visible.
Good luck.

update: Tabs

The basics are:

And the verse, well…you should be able to figure it out after this tab, together with the video (sorry, have to get back to work). If you don’t get it, just let me know.
