"The Thrill Is Gone"
The thrill is gone
The thrill is gone away
The thrill is gone baby
The thrill is gone away
You know you done me wrong baby
And you'll be sorry someday
The thrill is gone
It's gone away from me
The thrill is gone baby
The thrill is gone away from me
Although, I'll still live on
But so lonely I'll be
The thrill is gone
It's gone away for good
The thrill is gone baby
It's gone away for good
Someday I know I'll be open armed baby
Just like I know a good man should
You know I'm free, free now baby
I'm free from your spell
Oh I'm free, free, free now
I'm free from your spell
And now that it's all over
All I can do is wish you well

    @StitchMethod Guitar Forgive me, as I enjoy watching these (especially the Jerry ones🤗)......but wouldn't the "BB King Box" include the natural 6th (G#)? It's always been my understanding that one of the things that adds to his minor blues soloing is the use of the 6th (similar to how Clapton or Mayer bend to the major 3rd while in minor, and even how Jerry slides from maj 3rd into min 3rd before coming home in a major key)...I was taught the BB Box as G#-B-D-E-F#....maybe a lesson on this could appear in the future😏😁? Regardless, this is great, and I have already watched it twice.

I thought it went to a G7 there. I really like your explanation of how these chords come from the key of DMajor, knowing that Bm is the relative of that key. Ian, would you please break down and teach one of your "average B.B. solos" from this lesson when you have time? It would really help me get a better grasp of what's going on here. By the way, I am enjoying and learning a lot from your YT lessons! Thanks again
