After The Thrill Is Gone is the outcome of Don Henley and Glenn Frey's whimsical musings on BB King's tune The Thrill Is Gone, taking a 'What Now?' approach. The song is slowly strummed in the key of G Major but includes a couple unusual chords. There are a couple barre chords involved, along with an unusual hybrid chord - C with D in the bass, which might be considered a D11 of sorts.
The lesson goes into ways to make the strumming interesting, which is particularly important due to the very slow speed of the tune.
