Don’t Ask Me Why is a tune I never paid that much attention to. A student requested this a while back just for the basic chords and the chordy intro. So while listening I could not help thinking how well the piano solo would work on the guitar. It uses a lot of double stops that are thirds. It also uses arpeggios and a chromatic run. So double stops, arpeggios and chromatics- all great learning takeaways.

If you are looking for a good easy-ish solo to get under your belt, this is a great one. Maybe you have been playing long enough to start noodling with riffs and some scales but still have not nailed an actual solo yet. It uses mostly a pentatonic scale with some double stops, bends and chord tones. The tune is basically just two chords – A and Bm7. It’s the same changes as “I’d Rather Go Blind”. Listen to the solo enough to really know it in your head. Take it phrase by phrase when going through the tab/notation which is linked below. I also have a video with demo and lesson.
