    The reference is from our radio station way back in the 90’s. Rodney was live in the studio on the Bob & Tom show in Indianapolis and he performed the song, “ Fred’s riding Fred “. I was just off work 3rd shift in the morning and heard it live first time on air. Later the made him say alcohol instead of weed.

Therefore I'd like to ask, if you could do a "Sweet Virginia" and/or a "Ruby Tuesday" lesson some day. Two of my favourite Stones songs and I think especially "Sweet Virginia" has some interesting parts in it, which could be beneficial for guitar learners. Thank you for your good work! Keep on doing it! :)

    Hey Justin, second chord is a beautiful voicing of a D/F# Major which you can extend with a D on the B string (third fret). I love that shape which you can transpose along the neck using the index finger on the D string two frets away. And as a D major makes sense armonically.

    As always a tremendous lesson, for which thanks. As a matter of interest, I have the sheet music published by Warner Bros. Publications Inc. from way back in the seventies! According to that, the chords are Em at the fourth fret and D9/6 also at the fourth. The chorus is Em9 at the second fret and D Maj 9 at the second. I've never really played the song because I struggle with the Em9 because I have a bit of a crooked little finger.
