  1. Knock, Knock, Knockin’ On Heaven’s Door Simple Melody and Chords

  2. Start with learning the Chords • Do in 1st position then once that is mastered move to Barre chords. • Once the chords are learned do the melody. • You will need to figure it out. Hint is that the Chord Rules and the melody is mainly in the chords. • As a group have each person play the chords and then the melody. Help each other out. The sum of the parts is greater than the whole.

  3. Notes in the G chord are G, B and D D is D, F# and A Am7 are A, C, E and G C is C, E and G. The melody follows the notes in the chord for the most part.

  4. Work on the melody in various locations. There are 3 versions here. Play it more relaxed than the rhythmic notation indicates. The chords are constant throughout the piece.

I have given you some for the G chord. It contains the notes G, B and D. The Am7 chord is A, C, E and G, the D chord is D, F# and A, and the C chord is C, E and G.

  22. Whole Song • This means as a group there should be each part. • Everyone should learn the words to the song. • At least one of you should sing the song. • For 3 parts, one could play a bass type line, another the barre chords and the last one fills on top or arpeggios. • You might even want to write a hook to the song. • A hook is a melodic idea.

  23. Put it all together • This will take some time working as a group. • Best if you can work in class and maybe even some out of class. • Most important thing is that you start to sound like one voice not 3 or 4 separate voices.
