The third verse of hideaway is one of the funnest blues guitar licks of all time to play and this is like this, the third verse, but he plays this bass riff throughout the verse like he does kind of heads up where he plays the bass, the bass pattern. It's not really a solo, it's just something really cool. And he leads into it from the end of the previous and then it goes into the next verse. So what I'm doing here, let's get the pattern I start the verse with this lyric. And I'm sliding from the first to the second fret on the fourth fret. There's also a couple times when I think I hear him hammering on first finger on the first fret, hammering the second finger onto the second fret.
Sometimes it's hard to tell which one he's doing. So I think he starts out with the slide. So it's then an open look, pick open sixth strength, right there. And then he's going to come down on the third and fourth fret of the sixth string. And I used to think he did it like this. I think it's more one motion, and then to the second fret of the fifth string.
So it's like this. Now I'm gonna go to the fifth fret of the fifth string, back to the second fret, fourth fret, back to the second fret on the fifth string. So far, we've got this Then he's gonna do it again. And then before he goes to the four or the A, he's doing some kind of little lead in on the bass notes, I'm thinking, he's getting the open 64th fret of the six, kind of like we did in the second version. And then the open fifth string, which is the A, because this has gone to the floor, so we've got this. Then just right there over the four, open fifth string, three, four on the fifth string, second fret of the fourth string, and just like we did on the fifth string, and then back to this leg.
Then we play that over the one again. Then for the five, the B, here's what I hear, oh, I hear a slide, here's the fifth fifth string, second fret, that's a B. And somehow he's getting into the sixth fret of the fifth string. Don't know which finger he's gonna keep on there, the second finger actually works pretty good. makes it easy to control and then he does this where I'm starting with my first finger on the fourth fret of the fourth string, going to the seventh fret of the fourth string, and back to the fourth and sixth fret. There, so we've got this well, then we're gonna hammer on and that is the end of that verse.
So let me try to play that all the way through one more time. Time for you. So we're just basically playing over the let's do it from the end of the previous first. Turn around, right, we get that open first string. And that takes us in to the fourth verse.
