Hi everyone, Patreon request No 25.

This has been asked quite a few times, i.e. my version of the final solo of the song Everybody wants to rule the world. So, here it is.

I also want to open up on a theoretical level what I thought when I played this solo. Key is D major so the obvious scales that you can use are the D major and B minor scales, and of course the B minor pentatonic and blues scales. Okay, lets see what I was thinking...

BAR 2 : Asus4 triad arpeggio

BAR 3 : A major triad arpeggio

BAR 4-5 : D major scale

BAR 6-9 : I stole the idea from the original solo and moved it up a whole step (D major scale)

BAR 10-13 : B blues scale and B minor pentatonic scale

BAR 14-15 : Gmaj7 arpeggio

BAR 16-17 : B minor pentatonic scale

BAR 18-19 : Gmaj7 arpeggio. On bar 19 last three triplets are G , A , D major triad arpeggios.

BAR 20 : B minor pentatonic scale with few chromatic notes

BAR 21 : B blues scale

BAR 22-26 B minor pentatonic scale.

Have Fun!
