Cissy Strut | TAB

There are three sections to Cissy Strut. Here’s the first one, which we can call the A-section.

Without the organ chords, it sounds like a II – V as the melody is a Cm7 arpeggio. With the organ playing C9, we get that bluesy tension.

The same applies to the bridge, or B-section.

During the organ solo, try this rhythm part.

When you can play all this, go back to the chords lesson and play along with The Meters using the chord chart.

You can learn how to play Cissy Strut by The Meters using chords, chord analysis, a chord chart, and the original recording.
