[Wild Cherry-Play That Funky Music][Intro Riff BPM 109 - reminder of start E - 00 A - 757] [E5] [Verse + Riff - Full drums] [E] Hey, once I was a boogie singer
Playin' in a rock-and-roll band
I never had no problems
Burnin' down the one-night stands
And everything around me
Got to start to feelin' so low
And I decided quickly
Yes, I did
To disco down and check out the show
[Horn Riff 0x991212 xx771010 0x991212] [Pre-Chorus - E7#9 or 076777] [E] Yeah they were dancin' and singin'
And movin' to the groovin'
And just when it hit me Somebody turned around and shouted
[Chorus G7add9] [G7add9] "Play that funky music, white boy
Play that funky music right
Play that funky music,
[A#7add9] white boy
[A7] Lay down that
[E7#9] boogie
And
[B7#9] play that funky music 'til you die."
'Til you die?
[Verse + Riff] [E] I tried to understand this
I thought that they were out of their minds
How could I be so foolish
To not see I was the one behind
So still I kept on fighting
Well, losing every step by the way
... we can do
I said, I must go back there
I got to go back
And check to see if things still the same
[Pre-Chorus] [E7#9 or 076777] Yeah they were dancin' and singin'
And movin' to the groovin'
And just when it hit me
Somebody turned around and shouted
[Chorus G7add9] [G7add9] "Play that funky music, white boy
Play that funky music right
Play that funky music,
[A#7add9] white boy
[A7] Lay down that
[E7#9] boogie
And
[B7#9] play that funky music 'til you die."

[Intro - BPM 123 - No drums]Em Em D6/9 (200200) D6/9 x2
[Verse 1]On the
[Em] first part of the
[D6/9] journey
I was
[Em] looking at all the
[D6/9] life
There were
[Em] plants and birds and
[D6/9] rocks and things
There were
[Em] sand and hills and
[D6/9] rings
The
[Em] first thing I met was a
[D6/9] fly with a buzz
And the
[Em] sky with no
[D6/9] clouds
The
[Em] heat was hot and the
[D6/9] ground was dry
But the
[Em] air was full of
[D6/9] sound
[Chorus - Slap on snare drums]I've
[Em9] been through the desert on a
[Dmaj9] horse with no name
It felt
[Em9] good to be out of the
[Dmaj9] rain
In the
[Em9] desert you can re
[Dmaj9] member your name
'Cause there a
[Em9] in't no one for to
[Dmaj9] give you no pain
[Em9] La, la, la l
[Dmaj9] ala la la la, la, la
[Em9] La, la, la l
[Dmaj9] ala la la la, la, la
[Verse 2 - Slap on snare drums]After
[Em] two days in the
[D6/9] desert sun
My
[Em] skin began to turn
[D6/9] red
After
[Em] three days in the
[D6/9] desert fun
I was
[Em] looking at a river
[D6/9] bed
And the
[Em] story it told of a
[D6/9] river that flowed
Made me
[Em] sad to think it was
[D6/9] dead
[Chorus - Full drums]I've
[Em9] been through the desert on a
[Dmaj9] horse with no name
It felt
[Em9] good to be out of the
[Dmaj9] rain
In the
[Em9] desert you can re
[Dmaj9] member your name
'Cause there a
[Em9] in't no one for to

[Em9] a, la lala l
[Dmaj9] a la la, la, la
[Verse 3 - Drums stop]After
[Em] nine days I let the
[D6/9] horse run free
'Cause the
[Em] desert had turned to
[D6/9] sea
There were
[Em] plants and birds and
[D6/9] rocks and things
There were
[Em] sand and hills and
[D6/9] rings
(bass drum in)
The
[Em] ocean is a desert with its
[D6/9] life underground
And a
[Em] perfect disguise
[D6/9] above
Under the
[Em] cities lies a
[D6/9] heart made of ground
But the
[Em] humans will give no
[D6/9] love
[Chorus - Full drums]I've
[Em9] been through the desert on a
[Dmaj9] horse with no name
It felt
[Em9] good to be out of the

In the

[Verse 1]I
[E] hear the train a-coming, it's rolling round the bend
and I ain't seen the sunshine since
[E7] I don't know when
I'm
[A] stuck at Folsom Prison, and time keeps draggin'
[E] on
But that
[B7] train keeps a-rollin' on down to San A
[E] ntone
[Verse 2]When
[E] I was just a baby, my Mama told me 'Son,
always be a good boy; don't e
[E7] ver play with guns.'
But I
[A] shot a man in Reno, just to watch him di
[E] e
when I
[B7] hear that whistle blowin' I hang my head and
[E] cry
[Solo] E | E7 | E | E7
A | A | E | E
B7| B7| E |
[Verse 3]I
[E] bet there's rich folks eatin' from a fancy dining car
They're probably drinking coffee and s
[E7] moking big cigars
But I
[A] know I had it coming, I know I can't be
[E] free
But tho
[B7] se people keep a moving, and that's what
[E] tortures me
[Solo] E | E7 | E | E7
A | A | E | E
B7| B7| E |
[Verse 4] Well, if they
[E] freed me from this prison, if that railroad train was mine
I bet I'd move it on a little
[E7] farther down the line
[A] Far from Folsom Prison, that's where I want to
[E] stay
And I'd
[B7] let that lonesome whistle blow my blues a
[E] way
[End][Notes]Solo whilst playing backbeat 1. Play up with first finger off beat notes against the snare hits - mainly notes on B and high E string - add
vibrato and slides to make it lively - use little finger to fret notes so can mute rest of strings with other fingers of left hand
- can also play double stops and 3 notes pull offs (i.e. E - 5p3p0)
Can use 3rd finger if want to apply more vibrato and give left hand more space to work against the capo
Rhythm 1 2&1&2&1
