Aerosmith - Cryin’

Originally in A, I play in D or D capo 1

The highest part is the “breathin’ room” after

the first chorus, it goes up to the 4.

When acoustic, I also play something for the main riff

that looks a little more like Bb5 Bb5/G Bb5 C5,

or Eb Eb Bb5 C5. Even just Bb5 Bb5 Bb5 C5 works.

D#5	F5	A#5	C5
x3

D#5	F5	A#5	C5	D#5

D	A
There was a	time

Bm	F#m
When I was so	broken-hearted

G	D	A
Love wasn’t	much of a	friend of mine

D	A
The tables have	turned, yeah

Bm	F#m
‘Cause me and them	ways have parted

G	D	A
That kind of	love was the	killin’ kind, listen

C	G	C	G
All I	want is some	one I can’t re	sist

Vox start this line on the same note as the last line,

and go a half-step up on “way”

F	C	A
I know all I	need to know by the	way that I got kissed

	D	A
I was	cryin’ when I	met you

	Bm	G
Now I’m	tryin’ to for	get you

D	A	G
Your love is	sweet miser	y

	D	A
I was	cryin’ just to	get you

	F#m	G
Now I’m	dyin’ ‘cause I	let you

D	A	G
Do what you	do, down on	me

Vox in on the 1 of whatever chord is last in this phrase.

That’s C if you’re playing in D. Chords are just the intro

riff.

D#5	F5	A#5	C5
			Now there’s not even breathin’ room

D#5	F5	A#5	C5
			Between pleasure and pain

D#5	F5	A#5	C5
			Yea you cry when we’re makin’ love

D#5	F5	A#5	C5	D#5
			Must be one and the	same

D	A
It’s down on me

Bm	F#m
Yeah I got to tell	you one thing

G	D	A
It’s been on my m	ind, girl	I gotta say

D	A
We’re partners in cri	me

Bm	F#m
You got that certai	n something

G	D	A
What you give to	me takes m	y breath away

	C	G	C	G
Now the	word out on the	street is the	devil’s in your	kiss

F	C	A
If our love goes	up in flames it’s a	fire I can’t resist

	D	A
I was	cryin’ when I	met you

	Bm	G
Now I’m	tryin’ to for	get you

D	A	G
Your love is	sweet miser	y

	D	A
I was	cryin’ just to	get you

	F#m	G
Now I’m	dyin’ ‘cause I	let you

D	A	G
Do what you	do, down on	me

Solo over intro chords

Vox in on the 5 of the first chord

That’s a D# if you’re playing in D

	G#	D#
‘Cause	what you got in	side

	G#	D#
Ain’t	where your love should	stay

Vox down a whole step on “our”, then up a whole step to “ain’t”,

and up a half-step on “give”.

	C#	G#
Yeah	, our love, sweet love	, ain’t love

	A
Yill ya	give your heart away

Note the minor chords are switched in this chorus

	D	A
I was	cryin’ when I	met you

	F#m	G
Now I’m	tryin’ to for	get you

D	A	G
Your love is	sweet miser	y

	D	A

Billy Joel - Keeping the Faith

Originally in D, I play in A capo 2.

If it	seems like I’ve been lost in let’s remember

If you think I’m feeling older and missing my younger days

	D
Oh, then you	should have known me much better

Cause my past is something that never

	A
Got in my	way oh no

	A
Still I	would not be here now if I never had the hunger

And I’m not ashamed to say the wild boys were my friends

	D
Cause I	never felt the desire ‘til their music set me on fire

	E6	D
And then I was	saved,	yeah

	E6
That’s why I’m keeping the	faith

D

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Keeping the	faith

We wore	matador boots

Only Flagg Brothers had them with the Cuban heel
Iridescent socks with the same color shirt
And a tight pair of chinos

	D
I	put on my shark skin jacket

You know the kind with the velvet collar

	A
And ditty-bop	shades

I took a fresh pack of Luckies and a mint called Sen-Sen
My old man's Trojans and his Old Spice after shave

	D
Combed my	hair in a pompadour

Like the rest of the Romeos wore

	E6	D

We were keeping the	faith

Learned stickball as a formal education

Lost a lot of fights but it taught me how to lose O.K.

	D
I	heard about sex but not enough

	A
I found you could dance and still look tough any	way

I found out a man ain’t just being macho
Ate an awful lot of late night drive-in food drank a lot of take-home pay

	D
I	thought I was the Duke of Earl

When I made it with a red-haired girl

When you	love someone you’re	always insec	ure

And there’s	only one good	way to reass	ure

T	ell her about it, let her	know how much you care

When she can’t be	with you, tell her	you wish you were	there

Billy Joel - The Downeaster ‘Alexa’

Originally in Am, I play in Em.

Sometimes I capo 2, the highest note is Bb in Am.

Mostly muted, be judicioius with strumming.

Em

Vox start on I II III (B in G)

	G	D	Em
Well I’m	on the	Downeaster	Alexa

	G	D	C
And I’m	cruising through	Block Island	Sound

	C	G	Am
I have	charted a	course to the	Vineyard

	G	D	C
But	tonight I am	Nantucket	bound

C	D	G	C
We took on	diesel back in	Montauk	yesterday

C	D	Em	D/F#
And left this	morning from the	bell in Gardiner’s	Bay

C	D	G	C
Like all the	locals here I’ve	had to sell my	home

C	D	Em	D/F#
Too proud to	leave I worked my	fingers to the	bone

	G	D	Em
So I could	own my	Downeaster	Alexa

	G	D	C
And I	go where the	ocean is	deep

	C	G	Am
There are	giants out	there in the	canyons

	G	D	C
And a	good captain	can’t fall	asleep

C	D	G	C
I’ve got	bills to pay and	children who need	clothes

C	D	Em	D/F#
I know there’s	fish out there	but where God only	knows

C	D	G	C
They say these	waters aren’t	what they used to	be

C	D	Em	D/F#
But I’ve got	people back on	land who count on	me

	G	D	Em
So if you	see my	Downeaster	Alexa

	G	D	C
And if you	work with the	rod and the	reel

	C	G	Am
Tell my	wife I am	trolling	Atlantis

	G	D	C
And I	still have my	hands on the	wheel

Interlude, lots of ayyy-o and accordion noises

	G	D	Em
Now I	drive my	Downeaster	Alexa

	G	D	C
More and	more miles from	shore every	year

	C	G	Am
Since they	tell me I	can’t sell no	stripers

	G	D	C
And there’s	no luck in	swordfishing	here

C	D	G	C
I was a	bayman like my	father was	before

C	D	Em	D/F#
Can’t make a	living as a	bayman	anymore

C	D	G	C
There ain’t much	future for a	man who works the	sea

So I’ve l	earned to dance with a h	and in my pants

	Am7	Cmaj7
Let ‘em	rub my neck and I	write ‘em a check

G

	G	C/E	G/D	C

I	can’t remember faces,	I don’t remember	names

So I	just don’t have the ti	me

You’ve	heard my latest recor	d, it’s been on the	radi	o

Ah, it	took me years to write it, they were the

C/E	C
Best years of my	life

	Cmaj7	D
It was a b	eautiful song, but it	ran too long

	Am7	C
If you’re	gonna have a hit, you	gotta make it fit

	D	G
So they	cut it down to 3:0	5

G

G	C/E	G/D	C
I am the entertainer, the	idol	of my	age

	C	G/B	C	D
I	make all kinds of mone	y when I go	on the	stage

Ah, you’ve	seen me in the papers

I’ve	been in the ma	gazines

Time will tell on their power minds

Making war just for fun

Treating people just like pawns in chess

Bob Dylan - If You Gotta Go

Originally in F#, Flying Burrito Brothers in E

Dylan version does I→IV throughout the verse,

I follow the Burrito Brothers arrangement that

doesn’t do this until the chorus.

I also mix the lyrics from different versions here.

Intro

E

	E
Listen to m	e baby

I’ve come to make you see
I want to be with you, girl

Hard stop on “you”

	E
If	you want to be with me

	E	A	E
But if you got to	go

	E	A	E
That’s all	right

	A	E
But if you got to	go, go	now

	B	E
Or e	lse you got to stay all n	ight

	E
It ain’t that I’m que	stionin’ you

To take part in any kind’a quiz
It's just that I ain't got no watch

	E
An’ you keep	askin’ me what time it is

	E	A	E
But if you got to	go

	E	A	E
That’s all	right

	A	E
But if you got to	go, go	now

	B	E
Or e	lse you got to stay all n	ight

E

I am just a poor boy lookin’ to connect

And I certainly don’t want you thinkin’

	E
That	I haven’t got any respect

	E	A	E
But if you got to	go

	E	A	E
That’s all	right

	A	E
But if you got to	go, go	now

	B	E
Or e	lse you got to stay all n	ight

E

It ain’t that I’m wantin’

Anything you never gave before
It's just that I'll be sleepin' soon

	E
It’ll be too da	rk for you to find the door

	E	A	E
But if you got to	go

	E	A	E
That’s all	right

	A	E
But if you got to	go, go	now

	B	E
Or e	lse you got to stay all n	ight

Said if you got to	go

Bob Seger - Turn The Page

I like to play this about 1.5x faster than the original,

starting with the Em at the 7th fret with the open top string,

then going to more like a low E5 in the second part of the verse.

Changing positions keeps this fairly repetitive song from getting

stale. Actually I try to us as many voicings with the open high E

string as I can.

Em	D	Em	Em

	Em
On a	long and lonesome highway east of Omaha

	D
You can	listen to the engine, moanin’ out its one note song

	A	Em
You can	think about the woman, or the girl you knew the night	before

	Em
And your	thoughts will soon be wandering the way they always do

	D
When you’re	riding sixteen hours and there’s nothing much to do

	A	Em
You	don’t feel much like writing, you just wish the trip was through

	D	Em
But here I	am, on the	road again

	D	Em
Here I	am, up on	stage

	D	A
Here I	go, playing the	star again

	C	D	Em
There I	go,	turn the	page

Em

You walk into a restaurant, strung out from the road

	D
And you	feel the eyes upon you, as you’re shaking off the cold

	A	Em
You	pretend it doesn’t bother you, but you just want to	explode

Em

Sometimes you can hear ‘em talk, other times you can’t

	D
And it’s all the	same cliches is that a woman or a man

	A	Em
And you	always seem outnumbered, you don’t dare make a	stand

	D	Em
But here I	am, on the	road again

	D	Em
Here I	am, up on	stage

	D	A
Here I	go, playing the	star again

	C	D	Em
There I	go,	turn the	page

Quiet, let chords ring...

Em

Out there in the spotlight, you’re a million miles away

D

Every ounce of energy you try to give away

	A	Em
And the	sweat pours out your body like the music that you	play

Em

Later on that evening, as you lie awake in bed

	D
The	echoes of the amplifiers ringin’ in your head

	A	Em
And you	smoke the day’s last cigarette, remembering what she said

	D	Em
But here I	am, on the	road again

	D	Em
Here I	am, up on	stage

	D	A
Here I	go, playing the	star again

	C	D	Em
There I	go,	turn the	page

Now getting loud again...

	D	Em
But here I	am, on the	road again

	D	Em
Here I	am, up on	stage

	D	A
Here I	go, playing the	star again

	C	D	Em
There I	go,	there I	go

When she cries in the night Tommy whispers

Bon Jovi - Wanted Dead or Alive

Originally in D, I play in A. In A, play all the Gadd9’s as G.

4 measures high riff on A minor, chords are approximately:

Am	G	F	Em7	C	D	Am
						x 2

4 measures low riff on C → A minor, chords are approximately:

Bm	G	C	A5
			x 3

Bm	G	C	A

A	Gadd9	D
It’s all the same,	only the names wil	l change

	Gadd9	D	C	A
And	ev’ry	day, it seems we’re	wasting a	way

	A	Gadd9	D
A	nother place, where the	faces are so	cold

	Gadd9	D	D	C	A
I’d	drive all	night, just to	get	back	home

	Gadd9	D	C	A
I’m a	cowboy	, on a	steel horse I	ride

	Gadd9	D	C	A
I’m	wanted	,	dead or a	live

Gadd9	D	C	A
Wanted	,	dead or a	live

4 measures high riff on A minor

	A	Gadd9	D
Some	times I sleep, some	times it’s not for	days

	Gadd9	D	C	A
And	people I meet	, always	go their separate	ways

	A	Gadd9	D
Some	times you tell the day, by the	bottle that you	drink

	Gadd9	D	D	C	A
Some	times when you’re a	lone,	all you	do is	think

	Gadd9	D	C	A
I’m a	cowboy	, on a	steel horse I	ride

	Gadd9	D	C	A
I’m	wanted	,	dead or a	live

Gadd9	D	C	A
Wanted	,	dead or a	live

Solo

When a soloist is available, play the chorus chorus,

and come out in a chorus with vocals.

For typical acoustic performance, let everything just

ring out in A minor for a while, then fade right into the verse.

	A	Gadd9	D
And I	walk these streets, a loaded	six string on my	back

	Gadd9	D	C	A
I	play for keeps	, ‘cause I	might not make it	back

A	Gadd9	D
I been ev’ry where, still I’m	standing	tall

Hard stop on “rocked”

	Gadd9	D	D	C	A
I’ve	seen a milion	faces, and I’ve	rocked	them all

	Gadd9	D	C	A
I’m a	cowboy	, on a	steel horse I	ride

	Gadd9	D	C	A
I’m	wanted	,	dead or a	live

	Gadd9	D	C	A
I’m a	cowboy	, I got the	night on my	side

	Gadd9	D	C	A
I’m	wanted	,	dead or a	live

	Gadd9	D	C	A
Dead or a	live	,	dead or	alive

	Gadd9	D	C	A
I still	try I still	ride,	dead or	alive

Gadd9	D	C	A
Dead or a	live,	dead or	alive

Gadd9	D	C	A
Dead or a	live,	dead or	alive

End with high riff in A minor, then a cadence on A major.

Drink cause she ca	n’t shoot whiskey

	Am	G	Fsus2
Ri	ght now he	’s probably up behind her with a	pool stick

Showing her h	ow to shoot a combo

D	E7
And he don’t	know

Dan Morris - Flowers in the Rain

Note that the capo moves around in this song... it was

done with the magic of multitracking for recording

purposes, but I find I can do it live if I fade into a

real quiet chord right before I move the capo, which

happens to fit with the song (sort of)...

Intro, capo 3

Cadd5	D11add5	Cadd5	D11add5	Cadd5	D7	G

But you pret	end that you can’t	hear me

And my	song turns to a	scream

During this transition, with the yeah,

the capo 3 guitar fades out and capo 1 fades in

Capo 3: C C7 F

Old true friend of ours was	talking on the phone

	D
She said you	found someone

	E
And I	thought of all the bad luck

And the struggles we went through

	D
And how	I lost me and you lost you

E

What are these voices outside love’s open door

	D
Make us	throw off our contentment

	E
And	beg for something more?

A	Bm7	A/C#

There’s a	yearning undefined

How can love survive in	such a graceless age?

Ah the	trust and self-assurance that lead to happiness

They’re the	very things we	kill, I guess

Our	pride and competition

Can not fill these empty arms

And the	work I put between us

I’m learning to	live without you	now

I’ve been trying to get down

And my friends seem to scatter

Elvis Presley - Fever

Often played in Am, I play in Em capo 3.

Note the vocals ride mostly on IV in this key, i.e. the A in Em.

Crazy chromatic key changes are also common, but I skip that when

doing it acoustic. This is fun to do with just bass and vox, in

which I case I go up a half-step after every chorus.

Em

Never know how much I love you

D	B7	Em
Never know how	much I	care

Em

When you put your arms around me

	B7	Em
I get a	fever that’s so hard to	bear

	Em	C
You give me fever,		when you kiss me

D	Em
Fever when you hold me	tight

Em	C
Fever,	in the morning

B7	Em
Fever all through the	night

Em

Sun lights up the daytime

D	B7	Em
Moon lights	up the	night

Em

I light up when you call my name

	B7	Em
And you	know I’m gonna treat you	right

	Em	C
You give me fever,		when you kiss me

D	Em
Fever when you hold me	tight

Em	C
Fever,	in the morning

B7	Em
Fever all through the	night

Em

Ev’rybody’s got the fever

D	B7	Em
That is something	you all	know

Em

Fever isn’t such a new thing

B7	Em
Fever started long a	go

Em

Romeo loved Juliet

D	B7	Em
Juliet she	felt the	same

Em

When he put his arms around her, he said

B7	Em
Julie, baby, you’re my	flame

	Em	C
Thou givest fever,		when we kisseth

D	Em
Fever when thy flaming	youth

Em	C
Fever	I’m afire

B7	Em
Fever, yea I burn for	sooth

Em

Captain Smith and Pocahantas

D	B7	Em
Had a very	mad af	fair

Em

When her Daddy tried to kill him, she said

B7	Em
“Daddy-o don’t you	dare.”

Em	C
He gives me fever,	with his kisses

D	Em
Fever when he holds me	tight

Em	C
Fever,	I’m his missus

	B7	Em
Oh	daddy won’t you treat him	right

Em

Now you’ve listened to my story

D	B7	Em
Here’s a point that	I have	made

Em

Chicks were born to give you fever

	B7	Em
Be it	Fahrenheit or Centi	grade

Em	C
They give you fever,	when you kiss them

D	Em
Fever if you live and	learn

Em	C
Fever,	’til you sizzle

B7	Em
What a lovely way to	burn

B7	Em
What a lovely way to	burn

D	Cadd9	G/B	Cadd9	G

	G	C
It won’t be	easy, you’ll think it	strange

	D
When I try to explain how I	feel

That I still need your love after	all that I’ve done

	Em
You won’t bel	ieve me

Running around, trying	everything new

I never expected it	to

And as for	fortune, and as for	fame

	D
I never invited them	in

	G
Though it seemed to the world they were	all I desired

	Em
They are ill	usions

	A7
They are not the solutions they	promised to be

The	answer was here all the time

I love you and hope you love	me

Garth Brooks - Papa Loved Mama

E5

Papa drove a truck nearly all his life

	A7
You know it	drove mama crazy being a trucker’s wife

	B7
The	part she couldn’t handle was the being alone

	C	B7
I guess she	needed more to hold than just a	telephone

E5

Papa called Mama each and every night

	A7
Just to	ask her how she was and if us kids were alright

B7

Mama would wait for that call to come in

	C	B7	E7
And when	Daddy’d hang up she was	gone a	gain

A7

Mama was a looker lord how she shined

E7

Papa was a good’n but the jealous kind

A7

Papa loved Mama, Mama loved men

E7	B7	E5
Mama’s in the graveyard	Papa’s in the	pen

E5

Well it was bound to happen and one night it did

A7

Papa came home and it was just us kids

	B7
He had a	dozen roses and a bottle of wine

	C	B7
If he was	lookin’ to surprise us he was	doin’ fine

E5

I heard him cry for Mama up and down the hall

	A7
Then I	heard a bottle break against the bedroom wall

	B7
That	old diesel engine made an eerie sound

	C	B7	E7
When Papa	fired it up and headed	into	town

	A7
Well the	picture in the paper showed the scene real well

E7

Papa’s rig was buried in the local motel

	A7
The	desk clerk said he saw it all real clear

After this line go right into the little riff

	E7	B7	E5
He never	hit the brakes and he was	shifting	gears

E5	F5	F#5	G5	G#5	G#5

A7

Mama was a looker lord how she shined

E7

Papa was a good’n but the jealous kind

Papa loved Mama, Mama loved men

Garth Brooks - Rodeo

If I had to call all those E5’s Em or E, I’d call them E,

I play the G A over an open A.

Vox up to the 1 on “knows”

And she	knows he’s gonna go

It starts to become a major chord here

	E5
Well it	ain’t no woman flesh and blood

It’s	boots and chaps, it’s cowboy hats

She	does her best to hold him

And her	back’s against the	wall

	E5
And it’s	so long girl I’ll see you

	A	A	G
When it’s	time for him to go

You know the	woman wants her cowboy

E5	G	A

	E7
It’ll	drive a cowboy crazy

	A	E7
It’ll	drive a man in	sane

	A	E5
And he’ll	sell off every	thing he owns

A	E5
Just to pay to play the	game

	E5
And a	broken home and some broken bones

	A
Is	all he’ll have to show

	E5
For	all the years that he spent chasin’

	B7
This	dream they call rodeo

	E
Well it’s	bulls and blood, it’s dust and mud

	A	E
It’s the	roar of a Sunday	crowd

	E
It’s the	white in his knuckles, the gold in the buckle

	B7	D	B
He’ll	win the next go ‘round

It’s	boots and chaps, it’s cowboy hats

	A	E
It’s	spurs and lati	go, it’s the ropes and the reins

	B7	E5
And the joy and the pain and they	call the thing rode	o

It’s the	broncs and the blood

It’s the steers and the mud

Three thirty in the morning	not a soul in sight

He’s headin’ back from somewhere that he	never should have been

She rushes out to hold him	thankful he’s alive

	E	Am
And the	lightning flashes in her eyes and	he knows that she knows

This verse is not on the recorded version

She runs back down the hallway	to the bedroom door

Genesis - Jesus He Knows Me

Originally in Ebm, I play in Am capo 3,

and barre all the Dm’s. Also for some reason

I find myself tempted to strum 16ths... don’t

do that, you won’t be able to sustain the tempo,

stay at 8ths.

George Michael - Faith

Originally somewhere between B and C, I play in A

Intro, skip the whole organ bit

Guitar only, just one measure in original, but wait for vox

A

Bass and drums enter when vox come in, drums still pretty sparse

	A
Well I guess it would be	nice if I could touch your body

	D	A
I know not	everybody has got a body like	you

	A
But I’ve got to think	twice before I give my heart away

	D	A
Girl I know	all the games you play ‘cause I play them	too

Drums ramping in

	D	A
Oh but I	need some time off from	that emotion

D	A
Time to pick my heart up off the	floor

	D	A	F#m
And when that	love comes down with	out de	votion

Hard stop on ‘door’

	Bm	E
Well it	takes a strong man baby but I’m	showing you the door

	A
‘Cause I gotta have	faith

I gotta have faith
I gotta have faith, a-faith, a-faith

Hard stop on last “faith”

I gotta have faith, a-faith, a-faith

A

Baby I know you’re asking me to stay

	D
Say please, please,	please, don’t go away

	A
You say I’m giving you the	blues

May	be girl you mean every word you say

	D
Can’t help but	think of yesterday

And another one who	tied me down to loverboy rules

Be	fore this river be	comes an ocean

	D	A
Be	fore you throw my heart back on the	floor

	D	A	F#m
Oh baby I’ll	reconsider my	foolish	notion

Hard stop on ‘more’

Well I	need someone to hold me but I’ll	wait for something more

Grease - Freddy My Love

Originally in Db, I play in A

Get the vox ready for “flipped over that gray cashmere sweater”,

and also think hard about how serious you are about the melody in

the bridge. It’s rhythmically simple, but melodically wild.

E7	E6	E+	E7

Vox start on the 1

A	Amaj7	D	E7
Freddy my	love, I miss you	more than words can	say

Vox on the 7 of the chord on “touch”, down to the 3 of the chord on “way”

A	Amaj7	F#7sus4	F#7
Freddy my	love, please keep in	touch while you’re a	way

Bm7	Bm7b5	E7
Hearing from	you can make the	day so much better

C#m	C#m7b5/G	F#7sus4	F#7
Getting a	souvenir or	maybe a	letter

Vox up to the 3 of the chord on “flipped”, which is awkward,

then on the 5 on “gray”, which is not awkward.

Hard stop on “sweater”

Bm7	Dm/G	A/E	D
I really	flipped over the	gray cashmere	sweater

	A	Amaj7	D	E7
Freddy my	love, Freddy my	love, Freddy my	love, Freddy my	love

A	Amaj7	D	E7
Freddy you	know, your absence	makes me feel so	blue

A	Amaj7	F#7sus4	F#7
That’s okay	though, your presents	make me think of	you

Bm7	Bm7b5	E7
My ma will	have a heart at	tack when she catches

C#m	C#m7b5/G	F#7sus4	F#7
Those pedal	pushers with the	black leather	patches

Bm7	Dm/G	A/E	D
Oh how I	wish I had a	jacket that	matches

	A	Amaj7	D	A7
Freddy my	love, Freddy my	love, Freddy my	love, Freddy my	love

Vox on 3 1 of the first chord (“keep your”), then

1 5 of the second (“from me”).

That sets the tone, although this bridge is super-complicated to sing. Just hit

the high 3 of the chord on “mind” at the end and it will be OK.

	D	E7	C#m	A
Don’t	keep your letters	from me, I	thrill to every	line

	Dm7	E7	Am	Am
Your	spelling’s kinda	crummy, but	honey so is	mine

	Bm7b5	E7+5	E7	Am	D7
I	treasure every	gifti	e, the	ring is really	nifty

	Gmaj7	F#m7	Bm7	E7
You	say it cost you	fifty, so you’re	thrifty, I don’t	mind

	A	Amaj7	D	E7
Woah, oh, oh,	oh, Freddy you	see, you’ll hold me	in your arms some	day

A	Amaj7	F#7sus4	F#7
And I will	be wearing your	lacy linge	rie

Bm7	Bm7b5	E7
Thinking a	bout it, my heart’s	pounding already

C#m	C#m7b5/G	F#7sus4	F#7
Knowing when	you come home, we’re	bound to go	steady

Bm7	Dm/G	A/E	D
And throw your	service pay a	round like con	fetti

	A	Amaj7	D	E7
Freddy my	love, Freddy my	love, Freddy my	love, Freddy my	love

Guns and Roses - Sweet Child o’ Mine

I usually capo 3 for this, so it’s just higher than an

octave down from the original.

I usually lead in with a slow rendition of the riff,

an octave down (open position).

D

She’s got a smile that it seems to me

	C
Re	minds me of childhood memories

	G
Where e	verything

	D
Was as fresh as the bright blue	sky

D

Now and then when I see her face

	C
She	takes me away to that special place

	G
And if I’d	stare too long

	D
I’d probably break down and	cry

Soft, crescendo through the chorus

A	C	D
Woah,	oh, sweet child o’	mine

A	C	D
Woah,	oh, sweet love of	mine

D

She’s got eyes of the bluest skies

	C
As	if they thought of rain

	G
I’d	hate to look into those eyes

	D
And	see an ounce of pain

	D
Her	hair reminds me of a warm safe place

	C
Where	as a child I’d hide

	G
And	pray for the thunder and the rain

	D
To	quietly pass me by

A	C	D
Woah,	oh, sweet child o’	mine

A	C	D
Woah,	oh, sweet love of	mine

A	C	D
Woah,	oh, sweet child o’	mine, oooh yeah

Heart - Alone

The original starts in Bbm. For a male

voice this works okay with the chorus an

octave down. For a human (i.e., non-Heart) female,

Gm is somewhat reasonable, so I play it in Em,

capo 3. A dude singing in Em works pretty well

too. If feeling less-than-great in Em, don’t go

up to “got by” (which is a G), just stay on the

E. Similarly, sing the “how do i get you alone?”

on E,F,E→D instead of G,F,E→D.

Johnny Mathis - Without Us

I play the intro roughly as follows, leaving the

second line on the m(7, not 9) to make the transition

easier. Also not hitting the high string on that

last chord will make the transition sound smoother.

B|-1-1-1--3-/5-3-|
G|-2-3-2--3----3-|

Kenny Rogers - The Gambler

Originally in E, I play in D capo 2.

	D	G	D
On a	warm summer’s evenin’ on a	train bound for	nowhere

	G	D	A
I	met up with the	gambler, we were both too tired to	sleep

	D	G	D
So	we took turns a starin’ out the	window at the	darkness

	G	D	A	D
‘Til	boredom overtook	us,	and he began to	speak

	D	G	D
He said,	son, I’ve made a life out of	readin’ people’s	faces

	G	D	A
And	knowin’ what their	cards were by the way they held their	eyes

	D	G	D
And if	you don’t mind my sayin’, I can	see you’re out of	aces

	G	D	A	D
For a	taste of your	whiskey I’ll	give you some	advice

	D	G	D
So I	handed him my bottle and he	drank down my last	swallow

G	D	A
Then he bummed a	cigarette and asked me for a	light

	D	G	D
And the	night got deathly quiet, and his	face lost all expr	ession

	G	D	A	D
Said, if you’re	gonna play the	game, boy, ya gotta	learn to play it	right

	D	G	D
You got to	know when to hold ‘em,	know when to	fold ‘em

G	D	A
Know when to	walk away and know when to	run

	D	A	D	G	D
You never	count	your	money when you’re	sittin’ at the	table

	G	D	A	D
There’ll be	time enough for	countin’	when the dealin’s	done

Key change

E	A	E
Ev’ry gambler knows that the	secret to surv	ivin’

	A	E	B
Is	knowin’ what to	throw away and knowing what to	keep

	E	A	E
‘Cause	ev’ry hand’s a winner and	ev’ry hand’s a	loser

	A	E	B	E
And the	best that you can	hope for is to	die in your	sleep

	E	A	E
And	when he’d finished speakin’, he	turned back towards the	window

	B
Crushed out his cigarette and faded off to	sleep

	E	A	E
And	somewhere in the darkness the	gambler, he broke	even

	A	E	B	E
But	in his final	words I found an	ace that I could	keep

	E	A	E
You got to	know when to hold ‘em,	know when to	fold ‘em

Laura Branigan - Gloria

Originally in A, I play in A capo 3, or if I’m feeling like

a vocal reach, in D (D is better for the guitar). Highest

note is the 4, but it’s a long 4 (“caaaaallling”), and there’s

an awful lot of 3.

In A, play the intro A/E as:

-x-
-2-
-2-
-2-
-4-
-0-

Go up on to the 4 on “under”

Take a lover in the	after	noon?

	A/E	E
Feel your innocence	slipping a	way

Am7	D7

The original does i → IV for the first half of each verse,

I’m following an arrangement that’s IV → i the whole verse.

	D7	Am7
It’s close to	midnight and something evil’s lurking in the	dark

	D7	Am7
Under the	moonlight you see a sight that almost stops your heart

	Am	Am	G/B	C
‘Cause this is	thriller,	thril	ler	night

And	no one’s gonna save you from the	beast about to strike

	Am	Am	G/B	C
You know it’s	thriller,	thril	ler	night

Am7

	D7	Am7
You hear the	door slam and realize there’s nowhere left to run

	D7	Am7
You feel the	cold hand and wonder if you’ll ever see the sun

	D7	Am7
You close your	eyes and hope that this is just imagi	nation

Am7

I’m gonna thrill you tonight

End on “thrill you tonight”, or keep going if appropriate...

Am7	F	G	D
			Darkness falls across the land the midnight hour is close at hand

Creatures crawl in search of blood to terrorize y’all’s neighborhood
And whosoever shall be found without the soul for getting down
Must stand and face the hounds of hell and rot inside a corpse's shell

The foulest stench is in the air the funk of forty thousand years
And grizzy ghouls from every tomb are closing in to seal your doom
And though you fight to stay alive your body starts to shiver
For no mere mortal can resist the evil of the thriller

Miranda Lambert - Gunpowder and Lead

If I play in G, which sounds better on guitar,

I go down an octave for the chorus. Or I play

in E, which sounds better for my voice, and go

up to the chorus (which is a monster of E, but

worth it.

In E, it’s lots of open pentatonic minor, and

E D A D (i.e., ignore all the slash chords and

add9’s).

Misc - Over the Rainbow (hybrid)

This is a hybrid of the modern and traditional arrangements, and my personal preference.

It’s basically the traditional verse with the modern chorus.

Vocal note: starts on the I.

Vocal note: lull(e)a (e)by (a)hi (c)hi. I find the first ‘e’ (v)

easy to find, but my instinct is to move right up. The ‘by’ is

the same note.

Misc - Perfect Strangers Theme

Mr. Big - To Be With You

Huge range, may need to muck with the chorus melody to

avoid having to go too low in C.

Vox start on the 5 of the first chord

	A#	G
So	come on baby, come on over,	let me be the one to show you

Vox drop to the root on “I’m”

Can go an octave up there, but get down to

the 3 of the second (IV) chord.

I’m the one who	wants to	be with	you

C	Fsus2	G	C
Deep inside I	hope you’ll	feel it	too

Tricky vox here: “why” is the 7 of the first chord

Fsus2	Am
Why be alone when we can	be together baby?

Vox goes up a half-step from “baby”, to the 2 of this

chord on “you”, then down to 1 (can) #7 (my) 6 “worth”

D#	C
You can make my life worthwhile, I can make you start to	smile

Can’t count the years one hand

That we’ve been together

I need the other one to	hold you

Make you feel, make you feel better

C

It’s not a walk in the park

To love each other

	Am
But when our fingers inter	lock

Can’t deny, can’t deny you’re worth it

Quiet

Cause after all this	time

Hard stop on “still”

C

Recount the night that I first

Met your mother

	Am
And on the drive back to my	house

I told you that, I told you that I loved ya

C

You felt the weight of the world

Fall off your shoulder

	Am
And to your favorite	song

We sang along to the start of forever

And after all this	time

Paul McCartney - Maybe I’m Amazed

Verse originally in Bb, I play in G if I want to work, otherwise

C capo 3.

If you’re capo’d, be ready to find those 9’s. And on guitar, just play

a 7 instead of the #9.

Intro, the first chord is really just fading in,

and the progression really starts at the second chord.

F#	B/D#	Bm/D	C#m7	F#7

Vox on the 5 of the first chord

G	D/F#	A	E/A
Maybe I’m am	azed at the way you l	ove me all the t	ime

G	D/F#	A
And maybe I’m afr	aid of the way I lo	ve you

G	D/F#	A	E/A
Maybe I’m ama	zed at the way you pu	lled me out of t	ime

	G	D/F#
You h	ung me on a l	ine

Vox *stay* on the 6 of the chord on “maybe” (A if the chord is D)

	F	C/E	A
And m	aybe I’m amazed at the w	ay I really n	eed you

B	Bmaj7
Maybe I’m a	man

	B9
Maybe I’m a l	onely man who’s in the middle of something

E	B	B(#9)
That he doesn’t really underst	and

B	Bmaj7
Maybe I’m a	man

	B9
And maybe you’re the	only woman who could ever help me

E	B/D#	Bm/D	C#m7	F#7
Baby won’t you help me to underst	and

Solo on verse chords, acoustic I usually skip this and the following chorus.

Can also do it on doo doo, etc.

G	D/F#	A	E/A
G	D/F#	A
G	D/F#	A	E/A
G	D/F#
F	C	A

B	Bmaj7
Maybe I’m a	man

Maybe I’m a l	onely man who’s in the middle of something

E	B	B(#9)

B	Bmaj7
Maybe I’m a	man

	B9
And maybe you’re the	only woman who could ever help me

E	B/D#	Bm/D	C#m7	F#7
Baby won’t you help me to underst	and

G	D/F#	A	E/A
Maybe I’m am	azed at the way you’re	with me all the	time

G	D/F#	A
Maybe I’m a	fraid of the way I	need you

G	D/F#	A	E/A
Maybe I’m a	mazed at the way you	help me sing my	song

	G	D/F#
You	right me when I’m	wrong

	F	C/E	A
And	maybe I’m amazed at the	way I really n	eed you

If I skipped the previous chorus, I’ll do this one with lyrics, else do this on “yeah”

B	Bmaj7
Maybe I’m a	man

	B9
Maybe I’m a l	onely man who’s in the middle of something

E	B	B(#9)
That he doesn’t really underst	and

B	Bmaj7

	B9
And maybe you’re the	only woman who could ever help me

E	B/D#	Bm/D	C#m7	F#7

Long pause, then solo on verse chords, acoustic I usually skip this

G	D/F#	A	E/A
G	D/F#	A
G	D/F#	A	E/A
G	D/F#
F	C	A

Outro on chorus chords, fading, acoustic I usually skip this

	C/G	G	C
A	way from the	alley and	me

banter too much to delete it.

Thank you, thank you, thank you so much
Thank you, thank you so much

So lovely

Little Latin flourish on the 3rd and 4th strings, roughly G#m F#m

There’s a	sunny little country south of Mexico

Where the	winds are gentle and the waters flow

	A	Am	E
But	breezes aren’t the only	things that blow in El	Salvador

	E
If you	took the little lady for a moonlight drive

F#7

Odds are still good you’d come back alive

	A	Am	E	E7
But	everyone is innocent unt	il they arrive in El	Salvador

If the	rebels take a bus on the	grand highway

The	man on the radio says

B	E	E7
Now we’ll play South of the	Border

A	B
And in the morning the	natives say

G#m	C#m
We’re happy you have lived a	nother day

A

Last night a thousand more

B	E
Passed away in El Salva	dor

C#m	B
Oooh	Oooh

There’s a t	elevision crew here from ABC

Filming Rio Lempe and the refugees

Calling murdered children the t	ragedy of El S	alvador

Be	fore the government camera 20 feet away

A soldier fires the	acid spray

The	public address system

	B	E	E7
S	tarts to play South of the	Border

A	B
You run for cover and	hide your eyes

G#m	C#m
You hear the screams from	paradise

A	B
They’ve fallen further than you	realize

	C#m
In El Salva	dor

A	F#7	B
La	La	Ooh

Pause and ease into the next verse rubato

	E
Just like	Poland is protected by her Russian “friends”

The	junta is assisted by Americans

And if	60 million dollars seems	too much to spend in El	Salvador

They say	for half a billion they could do it right

F#7

Bomb all day, burn all night

	A	Am	E	E7
Unt	il there’s not a living t	hing upright in El Sa	lvador

	A	B
They’ll con	tinue training troops in the	USA

G#m	C#m
And watch the nuns that	got away

A	B
And teach the military	bands

	E	E7
To play South of the	Border

A	B
And kill the people to	set them free

Who put this price on their	liberty?

His crystal images tell you ‘bout a brighter day

And when the	Beatles tell you

They’ve got a	word “love” to sell you

Bm	E	A
They mean ex	actly what they	say

D7

I dig rock and roll music

I could really get it on in that scene
I think I could say somethin'
If you know what I mean

Bm	G
But if I	really say it

Bm	G
The radi	o won’t play it

Bm	E	A
Unless I	lay it between the	lines

Sara Bareilles - Brave

Originally in Bb, I play in C capo 1

Lowest note is the 1 (on “lack of *love*”)

Highest note is the 4 (on “I wanna see you”)

That’s a whopping Eb in the original key, plus

there’s a long braaaave on the 3

Vox on 3 5 on “you can”

C

You can be amazing

C

You can turn a phrase into a weapon or a drug

Am

You can be the outcast

Am

Or be the backlash of somebody’s lack of love

F	G	C
Or	you can start speaking up

C

Nothing’s gonna hurt you the way that words do

C

And they settle ‘neath your skin

Am

Kept on the inside and no sunlight

Am

Sometimes a shadow wins

F	G
But I	wonder what would happen if you

C

Say what you wanna say

And let the words fall	out

Honestly	I wanna see you be	brave

With what you want to say

Everybody’s been there, everybody’s been stared down

C	Am
By the ene	my

Am	Am
Fallen for the fear and done some disap	pearing

Am

Bow down to the mighty

F	G
Don’t run,	stop holding your tongue

Vox up to 1 on “maybe”, down to 3 on “live”

Vox same note on “way” and “out”

C

Maybe there’s a way out of the cage where you live

Same melody, but last note is 4 instead 3

Am

Maybe one of these days you can let the light in

Hard stop around “your brave”

F	G
Show me	how big your brave is

C

Say what you wanna say

Am	F
And let the words fall	out

	G	C
Honestly	I wanna see you be	brave

Bridge

Vox on the 1 of the minor chord (6 of the key)

Am	C
And since your	history of silence

C/E	F
Won’t do you	any good

C/E	F
Did you th	ink it would?

Am	C
Let your words be	anything but empty

G

Why don’t you tell them the truth?

No instruments this chorus

Savatage - All That I Bleed

Originally in Bb, I play in G.

This is really low in the verse, but this song is

all about the second chorus, which sits on the 1 and

goes up to the 2, so totally worth the low verse.

G	D	C	D
			x 2

G	D	C	D
Someone		got themselves a	letter

	G	D	C	D
In the	mail the	other	day

G	D	C	D
It’s al	r	eady worn and t	attered

	G	D	C	D
And I g	uess it g	ives a	way

Am	G
All the things we	keep inside

Am	D
All the things that r	eally matter

Am	G
The face puts on its	best disguise

	Am	D	G
And	all is well	until the heart betray	s

G	D	C	D
			x 2

G	D	C	D
She knows		as she reads the	letter that

G	D	C	D
Things were	bound to	stray

	G	D	C	D
The	wind blows,		she pulls her coat t	ighter

	G	D	C	D
And the l	etter f	lies aw	ay

Am	G
With all the things she	keeps inside

Am	D
All the things that	really matter

Am	G
The face puts on its	best disguise

	Am	D	G
And	all is well u	ntil the heart betray	s

Interlude, band enters on last chord in second phrase

G	Em	C	D
			x 2

G	C
Lord bring on the	night

G	D
Wrap it all around	me

G	C
Let it hold me	tight

G	D
Soak up all that I	bleed

G	C
Lord bring on the	night

G	D
Wrap it all around	me

G	C
Let it hold me	tight

G	D
Soak up all that I	bleed

G	C	D
And I’ll fly aw	ay

G	C	D
Yea I’ll fly aw	ay

G	C	D
Lord I’ll fly aw	ay, watch	me

Raging solo with *lots* of fast triplets...

G	C
Lord bring on the	night

Hanging stop on “bleed”

Smash Mouth - All Star

Originally in F#, I like it up at least a whole-step

in G#, sometimes as high as Bb, but I don’t capo,

I just play power chords.

This is maybe the only song where I’m not writing out all

the chords; it’s I V ii IV for all the verses, and it would

be 3 pages for 4 chords if I wrote all that out.

	Bb	F	Cm	Eb
Some	body once	told me the	world is gonna	roll me

I ain’t the sharpest tool in the shed
She was looking kind of dumb with her finger and her thumb
In the shape of an "L" on her forehead

Well, the years start coming and they don't stop coming
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running
Didn't make sense not to live for fun
Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb

So much to do much to see
So what's wrong with taking the back streets
You'll never know if you don't go
You'll never shine if you don't glow

Bb	Eb	EMb5	Eb
Hey now, you’re an	all-star, get your	game on,	go play

Bb	Eb	EMb5	Eb
Hey now, you’re a r	ock star, get the s	how on, g	et paid

Bb	Eb	EMb5	Eb
All that	glitters is	gold

	Bb	Ab	Eb
Only shooting s	tars	break the	mold

It's a cool place and they say it gets colder
You're bundled up now, wait 'til you get older
But the meteor men beg to differ
Judging by the hole in the satellite picture
The ice we skate is getting pretty thin
The waters gettin' warm so you might as well swim
My world's on fire, how about yours
That's the way I like it and I never get bored

Bb	Eb	EMb5	Eb
Hey now, you’re an	all-star, get your	game on,	go play

Bb	Eb	EMb5	Eb
Hey now, you’re a r	ock star, get the s	how on, g	et paid

Bb	Eb	EMb5	Eb
All that	glitters is	gold

	Bb	Ab	Eb
Only shooting s	tars	break the	mold

Bb	Eb	EMb5	Eb
All that	glitters is	gold

	Bb	Ab	Eb
Only shooting s	tars	break the	mold

Somebody once asked could I spare some change for gas
I need to get myself away from this place
I said yep what a concept I could use a little fuel myself
And we could all use a little change
Well, the years start coming and they don't stop coming
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running
Didn't make sense not to live for fun
Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb
So much to do much to see
So what's wrong with taking the back streets
You'll never know if you don't go
You'll never shine if you don't glow

Bb	Eb	EMb5	Eb

Taylor Swift - Shake it Off

Originally in G, I play in G and sing down an octave.

Vox go from the low 1 up to the 5 1.5 octaves above, so I

don’t go down all the way on the chorus.

Intro percussion only, though playing the root helps find

the first vocal line.

Originally in C, I play in A.

I do the opening chorus super slow, then break into a

syncopated triplet beat.

the third of the opening minor chord.

The Beatles - Eight Days A Week

Originally in D, I play in G capo 5.

When not in the original key, I find the intro works

best arpeggiated slowly, rather than strummed.

The Beatles - I’ve Just Seen a Face

Originally in A, by myself I play in G.

With two voices, I play in C capo 4.

Alone (in G), I play a version of the triplet intro that’s more

or less the following (twice):

E|-7-10-5-7-3-5-|
B|-0-0--0-0-0-0-|
G|-0-0--0-0-0-0-|
D|-9-0--7-7-5-5-|

G

I’ve just seen a face I can’t forget the time or place where we just

Em

Met she’s just the girl for me and I want all the world to see we’ve

C	D	G
Met mmm mmm	mmm mmm-mmm	mmm

G

Had it been another day I might have looked the other way and

Em

I’d have never been aware but as it is I’ll dream of her

	C	D	G
Ton	ight, dai dai	dai dai-dum	dai

D	C
Falling yes I am	falling and she keeps

G	C	G
Calling	me back a	gain

G

I have never known the like of this I’ve been alone and I have

Em

Missed things and kept out of sight but other girls were never quite like

C	D	G
This, dai dai	dai dai-dun	dai

D	C
Falling yes I am	falling and she keeps

G	C	G
Calling	me back a	gain

Solo on verse if appropriate

The Beatles - If I Fell

Vocal note: starts on F#

	Ebm
If I	fell in love with you

	D
Would you	promise to be true

	Db	Bbm
And help	me	understand

	Ebm
‘Cause I’ve	been in love before

	D
And	found that love is more

	Em7	A
Than	just holding	hands

The vox on the second chord are the high point,

so I delay that syllable a half-beat when solo.

	D	Em7	F#m7	Em7
If I	give	my	heart to	you

	A
I	must be sure from the

D	Em7	F#m7	Em
Ver	y	start that	you would

A	D	Gm7	A
Love me more than	her

	D	Em7	F#m7	Em
If I	trust	in	you, oh	please don’t

A

Run and hide

	D	Em7	F#m7	Em7
If I l	ove	you	too, oh	please, don’t

A	D9
Hurt my pride like	her

	G
‘Cause I couldn’t stand the	pain

	Gm7	D	A7
And	I would be sad if our new	love was in	vain

	D	Em7	F#m7
So I	hope	you’ll	see

	Em7	A
That	I would	love to love you

D	Em7	F#m7	Em7
And	that	she will	cry

	A	D9
When	she learns we are	two

	G
‘Cause I couldn’t stand the	pain

And	I would be sad if our new	love was in	vain

When I	think of	love as	something new

	F#m	D
Though I	know I’ll never lose af	fection

For	people and things that	went before

The Beatles - Rocky Raccoon

Am7

Spoken

Now somewhere in the black mountain hills of Dakota

	D7sus4	D7	G7
There lived a	young boy named Rocky Ra	ccoon(na)

And one day his woman ran off with	another guy

Hit young Rocky in the	eye

Rocky didn’t like that he said	I’m gonna get that boy

Booked himself a room in the	local saloon

Am7	Dsus4	D7
Rocky Raccoon checked	into his	room

G7	C	C/B
Only to find Gideon’s b	ible

Am7	Dsus4	D7
Rocky had come equip	ped with the	gun

	G7	C	C/B
To	shoot off the legs of his	rival

	Am7	Dsus4	D7
His	rival it seems had	broken his	dreams

	G7	C	C/B
By	stealing the girl of his	fancy

	Am7	Dsus4	D7
Her	name was Magill, and she	called herself	Lil

	G7	C	C/B
But	everyone knew her as	Nancy

	Am7	Dsus4	D7
Now	she and her man who	called himself	Dan

	G7	C	C/B
Were	in the next room at the	hoe-down

Am7	Dsus4	D7
Rocky burst in and	grinning a	grin

	G7	C	C/B
He said	Danny boy this is a show	down

	Am7	Dsus4	D7
But	Daniel was hot he	drew first and	shot

	G7	C	C/B

The Beatles - She’s Leaving Home

The original key (E) is pushing it, but it works as long as

I don’t try to hold the higher notes out (e.g. "five

o’clock")

E	Bm	F#m7	C#m7	F#7
Wednesday	morning at	five o’clock as the	day begins

B9	B7
Silently closing her	bedroom door

B9	B7
Leaving the note that she	hoped would say more

	E	Bm	F#m7
She goes	down	stairs to the	kitchen clutching

	C#m7	F#7
Her	handkerchief

She (we gave her most of our lives)

Is leaving (sacrificed most of our lives)

Home (we gave her	everything money could	buy)

She’s leaving home after	living alone

For	so many years

Picks up the leter that’s	lying there

B9	B7
Standing alone at the	top of the stairs

	E	Bm	F#m7
She breaks	down and	cries to her	husband

Daddy, our	baby’s gone

Why would she treat us so	thoughtlessly?

B9	B7
How could she do this to	me?

She (we never thought of ourselves)

Is leaving (never a thought for ourselves)

Home (we struggled	hard all our lives to get	by)

She’s leaving	home, bye,	bye

The Beatles - Something

After the first ‘I don’t know’ in each chorus,

I do a descending A → Ab → G → Gb → F → E

I also generally ignore all the slash chords on guitar.

And I play a measure or two of C before the ‘intro’

on guitar; that F always feels like a rocky start.

Sometimes I just skip the ‘intro’. When I play

that riff on guitar, I try to be super-soft on the Eb.

F	Eb	G/D

C	Cmaj7
Something in the way she	moves

C7	F
Attracts me like no other l	over

D7	G
Something in the way she wo	os me

	Am	AmM7
I d	on’t wanna leave her now

	Am7	D9
You k	now I believe, and h	ow

F	Eb	G/D

C	Cmaj7
Somewhere in her smile she kn	ows

C7	F	F/E
That I don’t need no other l	over

D7	G
Something in her style that s	hows me

	Am	AmM7
I d	on’t wanna leave her now

	Am7	D9
You k	now I believe and ho	w

F	Eb	G/D	A

You stick ar	ound now, it may	show

Solo if appropriate

Giving all your clothes to charity
Last night the wife said
Oh boy when you're dead

You	don’t take nothing with you but your soul, think!

Made a lightning trip to Vienna

Eating chocolate cake in a bag

The way things are	going

	E
They’re gonna crucify	me

Caught the early plane back to London

Fifty acorns tied in a sack

The	men from the press say we wish you success

It’s good to have the both of you back

The Eagles - Hotel California

Originally in Bm, I play in Am

Am	E
On a dark desert highway,	cool wind in my hair

G	D
Warm smell of colitas,	rising up through the air

F	C
Up ahead in the distance,	I saw a shimmering light

Dm

My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim

E

I had to stop for the night

Am	E
There she stood in the doorway,	I heard the mission bell

G

And I was thinking to myself

	D
This could be	heaven or this could be hell

F	C
Then she lit up a candle	and she showed me the way

Dm

There were voices down the corridor

E

I thought I heard them say

F	C
Welcome to the Hotel Cali	fornia

	Dm
Such a	lovely place

	Am
Such a	lovely face

F	C
Plenty of room at the Hotel Cali	fornia

	Dm	E
Any	time of year, you can	find it here

Am	E
Her mind is Tiffany-twisted,	she got the Mercedes bends

G	D
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys,	that she calls friends

F	C
How they dance in the courtyard,	sweet summer sweat

Dm	E
Some dance to remember,	some dance to forget

Am

So I called up the captain

E

Please bring me my wine

	G	D
He said,	we haven’t had that spirit here since	nineteen sixty-nine

F	C
And still those voices are calling from	far away

Dm

Wake you up in the middle of the night

E

Just to hear them say

F	C
Welcome to the Hotel Cali	fornia

	Dm
Such a	lovely place

	Am
Such a	lovely face

	F	C
We’re	livin’ it up at the Hotel Cali	fornia

	Dm	E
What a	nice surprise, bring your ali	bis

Let ring

Am

Mirrors on the ceiling

E

Pink champagne on ice

	G	D
And she said	we are all just prisoners here,	of our own device

F

And in the master’s chambers

	C
They are	gathered for the feast

Dm

They stab it with their steely knives

	E
But they	just can’t kill the beast

Back to tempo

Am

Last thing I remember

	E
I was	running for the door

G

I had to find the passage back

	D
To the	place I was before

F

Relax, said the night man

	C
We are	programmed to receive

Dm

You can check out any time you like

	E
But	you can never leave

Am

Originally in G capo 2, so really A.

My vocal comments are written in G.

G	Am7sus4	Cadd9	D

Melody on the 5 (D)

	G	Am7sus4	Cadd9	D
I’m	trying to tell you	something about my	life

	G	Am7sus4	Cadd9	D
Maybe	give me insight	between black and	white

	D11	C
The	best thing you’ve ever done for	me

	D11	C
Is to	help me take my life less serious	ly

It’s only life

G	Am7sus4	Cadd9	D
After all

Harmony enters on the 1 (G)

G	Am7sus4	Cadd9	D
Well the darkness has a	hunger that’s in	satiable

	G	Am7sus4	Cadd9	D
And the	lightness has a	call that’s hard to	hear

D11	C
I wrap my fear around me like a	blanket

	D11	C
I	sailed my ship of safety till I	sank it

	G	C	G
I’m crawling on your shore

High part on F#, low on A

D	Cadd9	G
I went to the doctor, I	went to the mou	ntains

D	Cadd9	G
I looked to the children, I	drank from	the fountain

D11	C
There’s more than one answer to these	questions

C	G
Pointing me in a crooked	line

Low part on A, high on D

D11	C
The less I seek my source for some de	finitive

High part on E, low on C. It’s actually the low part that

shoots up to high G, but usually easier to have the high

singer do that.

	G	A7sus9	Cadd9	D
The closer I	am to fine

	G	A7sus9	Cadd9	D
The closer I	am to fine

	G	Am7sus4	Cadd9	D
I	went to see the	doctor of phil	osophy

	G	Am7sus4	Cadd9	D
With a	poster of Ras	putin and a	beard down to his	knee

	D11	C
He	never did marry or	see a B-grade movie

	D11	C
He	graded my performance, he	said he could see through me

	G	A7sus9	Cadd9	D
I spent	four years prostrate	to the higher	mind, got my	paper

	G	C	G
And I was	free

D	Cadd9	G
I went to the doctor, I	went to the mou	ntains

D	Cadd9	G
I looked to the children, I	drank from	the fountain

D11	C
There’s more than one answer to these	questions

C	G
Pointing me in a crooked	line

D11	C
The less I seek my source for some de	finitive

	G	A7sus9	Cadd9	D
The closer I	am to fine

	G	A7sus9	Cadd9	D
The closer I	am to fine

Bridge over pre-chorus chords

D11	C	D11	C	G

	G	Am7sus4	Cadd9	D
I	stopped by the	bar at 3 a.	m

	G	Am7sus4	Cadd9	D
To seek	solace in a	bottle or	possibly a	friend

	D11	C
I	woke up with a headache like my	head against a board

D11	C
Twice as cloudy as I’d been the	night before

	G	C	G
And I went in seeking	clarity

D	Cadd9	G
I went to the doctor, I	went to the mou	ntains

D	Cadd9	G
I looked to the children, I	drank from	the fountain

D	Cadd9	G
We go to the doctor, we	go to the mou	ntains

D	Cadd9	G
We look to the children, we	drink from	the fountain

D	Cadd9	G
We go to the bible, we	go through the	workout

Let ring on “stand up” and “lookout”

D	Cadd9	G
We read up on revival and we	stand up for the	lookout

	D11	C
There’s	more than one answer to these	questions

	G
Pointing me in a	crooked line

	D11	C
The	less I seek my source for some	definitive

	G	A7sus9	Cadd9	D
The closer I	am to fine

	G	A7sus9	Cadd9	D
The closer I	am to fine

	G	A7sus9	Cadd9	D
The closer I	am to fine

	G	A7sus9	Cadd9	D
The closer I	am to fine

The Jackson Five - I Want You Back

Originally in G#, I play in A down an octave, possibly capo 1 or 2

Highest note is the 5 (on OH baby give)

Highest note that’s held a long time is the 3

A	A/C#	D
F#m	A/C#	D	A	Bm7	E	A
x2

Here for completeness, but acoustic I go right to

the verse here.

A	E/G#	F#m	E	D	D/C#	Bm7	E
Oh						Let me	tell you now

F#m	A/C#	D	A	Bm7	E	A
Oh

Vox on 5 on “when”, on the 6 of the key on “self” and “didn’t”.

That means you’re *not* going up from “self” to “didn’t”, even

though you want to.

A	D
When I had you to myself, I	didn’t want you around

	F#m	A/C#	D	A
Those	pretty	faces a	lways m	ade you

	Bm7	E7	A
S	tand out i	n a c	rowd

	A	D
Then	someone picked you from the bunch, one	glance was all it took

F#m	A/C#	D	A
Now it’s	much too l	ate for m	e

	Bm7	E7	A
To t	ake a s	econd l	ook

A	E/G#	F#m	E	D	D/C#
Oh	baby	give me one	more	chance

	Bm7	E
(To	show you that I	love you)

F#m	A/C#	D	A	Bm7	E
Won’t	you p	lease l	et m	e

A

Back in your heart

A	E/G#	F#m	E	D	D/C#
Oh d	arlin’ I	was b	lind to l	et you go

	Bm7	E
(L	et you go	baby)

	F#m	A/C#	D	A	Bm	E	A
Well	now	since I’	ve	seen yo	u	in his	arms

(I want you back)

A

Yes I do now (I want you back)

A

Ooh ooh baby (I want you back)

A

Yeah no no no (I want you back)

A

No no no no

A	D
Tryin’ to live without your love, is	one long sleepless night

F#m	A/C#	D	A	Bm7	E7	A
Let me	show you g	irl	that I	know w	rong from r	ight

A	D
Every street you walk on, I leave	tear stains on the ground

F#m	A/C#	D	A	Bm7	E7	A
Follow	ing the g	irl,	I didn’t e	ven w	ant ar	ound

Let me tell you now

A	E/G#	F#m	A	D	D/C#	Bm7
Oh	baby	all I	need is	one more	chance

	Bm7	E
(To	show you that I	love you)

F#m	A/C#	D	A	Bm7	E
Won’t	you p	lease l	et m	e

A

Back in your heart

A	E/G#	F#m	E	D	D/C#
Oh d	arlin’ I	was b	lind to l	et you go

	Bm7	E
(L	et you go	baby)

Note different rhythm here, downbeat on *IN* his arms

	F#m	A/C#	D	A	A
Well	now	since I		see you	in his arms

Bass/vox break, mostly on the I chord with some buh buh buh

A	E/G#	F#m	E	D	D/C#
Oh d	arlin’ I	was b	lind to l	et you go

	Bm7	E
(L	et you go	baby)

	F#m	A/C#	D	A	Bm	E	A
Well	now	since I’	ve	seen yo	u	in his	arms

(I want you back)

Original ad libs on chorus chords to fade, I prefer to end on:

A

Yes I do now (I want you back)

A

Ooh ooh baby (I want you back)

A

Yeah no no no (I want you back)

Hard stop before “I want you back”

A

No no no no (I want you back)

Van Halen - Dreams

Originally in C, I play in C an octave down, and it’s

*still* a little too high. Insane.

Start with a slow approximation of the intro riff

Cadd9	F	Am	G
Fsus2	Am7
Csus4	C	Csus2

Now fast, with excessive suspensions

I play only one of these, or play both but double-time

C	C/E	F	G
