[E] [F#m] [A] [E]
first note of melody is G# of the E chord (first fret on G string)
[Verse 1]
[E] Twenty-five years and my life is still
[F#m] Trying to get up that great big hill
Of [A] hope for a desti [E] nation
I [E] realized quickly when I knew I should
That the [F#m] world was made up of this brotherhood
Of [A] man, for whatever that [E] means
[Pre-Chorus]
And so I [E] cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed
Just to [F#m] get it all out, what's in my head
and I [A] - I am feeling a little pe [E] culiar
And so I [E] wake in the morning and I step outside
and I [F#m] take a deep breath and I get real high and
I [A] scream from the top of my lungs "What's going [E] on?"
[Chorus]
And I said " [E] Heyeyeyeyey [F#m] Heyeyey"
I said " [A] Hey, what's going [E] on?"

I try all the [A] time, in this insti [E] tution
And I [E] pray, oh my God, do I [F#m] pray
I pray every single [A] day
For a revo [E] lution
[Pre-Chorus]
And so I [E] cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed
Just to [F#m] get it all out, what's in my head
and I [A] - I am feeling a little pe [E] culiar
And so I [E] wake in the morning and I step outside
and I [F#m] take a deep breath and I get real high and
I [A] scream from the top of my lungs "What's going [E] on?"
[Chorus]
And I said " [E] Heyeyeyeyey [F#m] Heyeyey"
I said " [A] Hey, what's going [E] on?"
And I said " [E] Heyeyeyeyey [F#m] Heyeyey"
I said " [A] Hey, what's going [E] on?"
And I said " [E] Heyeyeyeyey [F#m] Heyeyey"
I said " [A] Hey, what's going [E] on?"
And I said " [E] Heyeyeyeyey [F#m] HeyeYEYEYE"

Eagles-Hotel California
[Intro - BPM 75]
Bm F# A E G D Em F# 2x
[Verse 1 - Drums in]
[Bm] On a dark desert highway, [F#] cool wind in my hair
[A] Warm smell of colitas, [E] rising up through the air
[G] Up ahead in the distance, I [D] saw a shimmering light
[Em] My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim,
[F#] I had to stop for the night
[Bm] There she stood in the doorway;
[F#] I heard the mission bell
[A] And I was thinking to myself,
[E] heaven or this could be hell
[G] Then she lit up a candle and she [D] showed me the way
[Em] There were voices down the corridor,
[F#] I thought I heard them say...
[Chorus]
[G] Welcome to the hotel Cali [D] fornia;
[F#] lovely place,
[Bm] lovely face
[G] Plenty of room at the hotel Cali [D] fornia,
[Em] time of year, you can [F#] find it here
[Verse 2]
[Bm] Her mind is tiffany-twisted, [F#] she got the Mercedes Benz
[A] She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, that [E] she calls friends
[G] How they dance in the courtyard, [D] sweet summer sweat.
[Em] Some dance to remember, [F#] some dance to forget
[Bm] So I called up the captain,
[F#] please bring me my wine
[A] haven t had that spirit here since [E] nineteen sixty nine
[G] And still those voices are calling from [D] far away
[Em] Wake you up in the middle of the night,
[F#] just to hear them say
[Chorus]
[G] Welcome to the hotel Cali [D] fornia;
[F#] lovely place,
[Bm] lovely face
[G] They re living it up at the hotel Cali [D] fornia
[Em] nice surprise, bring your [F#] alibis
[Verse 3]
[Bm] Mirrors on the ceiling,
[F#] the pink champagne on ice
[A] we are all just prisoners here, [E] of our own device
[G] And in the masters chambers,
[D] they gathered for the feast
[Em] The stab it with their steely knives,
[F#] just (snare) can't (snare) kill the (snare - flamenco fill) beast
[Bm] Last thing I remember, I was
[F#] running for the door
[A] I had to find the passage back,
[E] place I was before
[G] relax, said the night man,
[D] programmed to receive.
[Em] You can checkout any time you like,
[F#] (F#stop+snare) but you can never leave! (F#F#F#)
[Another Chorus? - use snare to bring back in]
[G] Welcome to the hotel Cali [D] fornia;
[F#] lovely place,
[Bm] lovely face
[G] They re living it up at the hotel Cali [D] fornia
[Em] nice surprise, bring your [F#] alibis

George Michael-Careless Whisper
[Intro]
[Dm7] [Gm7] [Bbmaj7] [Am7] x 2 - SAX PART
[Verse 1]
[Dm7] I feel so unsure [Gm7]
As I [Bbmaj7] take your hand and lead you
[Am7] to the dance floor
[Dm7] As the music dies
[Gm7] Something in your eyes
[Bbmaj7] Calls to mind a silver screen
And [Am7] all its sad goodbyes
[Chorus]
[Dm7] I'm never gonna dance again
[Gm7] Guilty feet have got no rhythm
[Bbmaj7] Though it's easy to pretend
I [Am7] know you're not a fool
[Dm7] Should've known better than to cheat a friend
And [Gm7] waste the chance that I've been given
[Bbmaj7] So, I'm never gonna dance again
The [Am7] way I danced with you - oo - oo
[Dm7] [Gm7] [Bbmaj7] [Am7]
ohh oh
[Verse 2]
[Dm7] Time can never [Gm7] mend
The [Bbmaj7] careless whispers [Am7] of a good friend
[Dm7] To the heart and mind
[Gm7] Ignorance is kind
[Bbmaj7] There's no comfort in the truth
[Am7] Pain is all you'll find
[Chorus]
[Dm7] I'm never gonna dance again
[Gm7] Guilty feet have got no rhythm
[Bbmaj7] Though it's easy to pretend
[Am7] I know you're not a fool
I [Dm7] should've known better than to cheat a friend
[Gm7] And waste the chance that I've been given
[Bbmaj7] So, I'm never gonna dance again
The [Am7] way I danced with you, ohh oh.
[Interlude]
[Dm7] [Gm7] [Bbmaj7] [Am7]
Never without your love
[Dm7] [Gm7] [Bbmaj7] [Am7]
[Bridge]
[Dm7] Tonight, the music seems so loud
[Gm7] I wish that we could lose this crowd
[Bbmaj7] Maybe it's better this way
[Am7] We'd hurt each other with the things we'd want to say
[Dm7] We could have been so good together
[Gm7] We could have lived this dance forever
But [Bbmaj7] now who's gonna dance with [Am7] me? Please stay
[Chorus]
[Dm7] And I'm never gonna dance again
[Gm7] Guilty feet have got no rhythm
[Bbmaj7] Though it's easy to pretend
I [Am7] know you're not a fool

And [Gm7] waste the chance that I've been given
[Bbmaj7] So, I'm never gonna dance again
The [Am7] way I danced with you

Gloria Gaynor-I Will Survive
[Intro]
[E7b9-020101]
[Verse 1]
At [Am] first I was afraid, I was [Dm] petrified,
Kept thinking [G] I could never live without you [Cmaj7] by my side.
But then I [Fmaj7] spent so many nights, thinking [Bm7b5-x20201] how you did me wrong,
And I grew [Esus4] strong; and I learned [E] how to get along.
And so you're [Am] back, from outer [Dm] space,
I just walked [G] in to find you here, with that sad [Cmaj7] look upon your face.
I should have [Fmaj7] changed that stupid lock,
I should have [Bm7b5] made you leave your key,
If I had [Esus4] known for just one second, you'd be [E] back to bother me.
[Chorus]
Go on now, [Am] go; walk out the [Dm] door;
Just turn a [G] round now, 'cos you're not [Cmaj7] welcome any more.
[Fmaj7] Weren't you the one who tried to [Bm7b5] hurt me with goodbye?
Did you think I'd [Esus4] crumble; did you think I'd [E] lay down and die?
Oh no, not [Am] I; I will sur [Dm] vive,
Oh, as [G] long as I know how to love, I [Cmaj7] know I'll stay alive.
I've got [Fmaj7] all my life to live, I've got [Bm7b5] all my love to give,
And I'll sur [Esus4] vive, I will sur [E] vive, hey he [Am] y
[Interlude]
[Am] [Dm] [G] [Cmaj7] [Fmaj7] [Bm7b5] [Esus4] [E]
[Verse 2]
It took [Am] all the strength I had not to [Dm] fall apart.
Kept trying [G] hard to mend the pieces of my [Cmaj7] broken heart.
And I spent [Fmaj7] oh, so many nights, just feeling [Bm7b5] sorry for myself,
I used to [Esus4] cry, but now I [E7] hold my head up high.
And you see [Am] me; somebody [Dm] new,
I'm not that [G] chained up little person, still in [Cmaj7] love with you.
And so you [Fmaj7] felt like dropping in and just ex [Bm7b5] pect me to be free,
Now I'm [Esus4] saving all my loving, for some [E] one who's loving me.
[Chorus]
Go on now, [Am] go; walk out the [Dm] door;
Just turn a [G] round now, 'cos you're not [Cmaj7] welcome any more.
[Fmaj7] Weren't you the one who tried to [Bm7b5] break me with goodbye?
Did you think I'd [Esus4] crumble; did you think I'd [E] lay down and die?
Oh no, not [Am] I; I will sur [Dm] vive,

I've got [Fmaj7] all my life to live, I've got [Bm7b5] all my love to give,

Go on now, [Am] go; walk out the [Dm] door;

Oh no, not [Am] I; I will sur [Dm] vive,

I've got [Fmaj7] all my life to live, I've got [Bm7b5] all my love to give,

[Verse 1]
D
She's got a smile that it seems to me
C
Reminds me of childhood memories
G
Where everything
D
Was as fresh as a 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 stared too long
D
I'd probably break down and cry

Whoa oh, sweet child o' mine

Whoa, oh, oh, oh sweet love o' 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 rain
D
To quietly pass me by

Whoa oh, oh, sweet child o' mine

Pick up phrase 4& - D-6, B-5 then play Cm, Csus2, x46444
[C#m7] [C#m7] [Asus2-x02200 or 577600] [E] x 4
[Verse 1]
It's not a [C#m7] silly little moment
It's not the [Asus2] storm before the [E] calm
This is the [C#m7] deep and dying breath of
This love that we've been [Aadd9] working [E] on
Can't seem to [C#m7] hold you like I want to
So I can [Asus2] feel you in my [E] arms
Nobody's [C#m7] gonna come and save you
We've pulled too many [Asus2] false al [E] arms
[Chorus - Badd11-799800,F#m11-24x200 ]
We're going [Badd11] down
And you can [C#m7-9-11-x-9-0-0] see it [Aadd9] too
We're going [Badd11] down
And you [C#m7] know that we're [F#m11-play F#m7 instead] doomed
My [C#m7] dear, we're slow [C#m7] dancing in a
[Asus2] burning [E] room
[Instrumental]
[C#m7] [C#m7] [Asus2] [E] x 4
[Verse 2]
I was the [C#m7] one you always dreamed of
You were the [Asus2] one I tried to d [E] raw
How dare you [C#m7] say it's nothing to me
Baby, you're the only [Asus2] light I ever [E] saw
I'll make the [C#m7] most of all the sadness
You'll be a [Asus2] bitch because you [E] can
You try to [C#m7] hit me just to hurt me so you leave me feeling dirty
'Cause you [Asus2] can't under [E] stand
[Chorus]
We're going [Badd11] down
And you can [C#m7] see it [Asus2] too
We're going [Badd11] down
And you [C#m7] know that we're [F#m11-x44200 or 242422] doomed
My [C#m7] dear, we're slow [C#m7] dancing in a
[Asus2] burning [E] room
[Instrumental]
[C#m7] [C#m7] [Asus2] [E] x 4
[Bridge]
Go [F#m11] cry about it, why [C#m7-9-11-x-9-0-0]
don't you [Badd11] [Asus2]
Go [F#m11] cry about it, why [C#m7] don't you [Badd11] [Asus2]
Go [F#m11] cry about it, why [C#m7] don't you [Badd11] [Asus2]
My [C#m7] dear, we're slow [C#m7] dancing in a
[Asus2] burning [E] room
[Instrumental]
[C#m7] [C#m7] [Asus2] [E] x 4
[Outro]
Don't you think we oughta
[C#m7] know by now ... Don't you [C#m7] think we
should've [Asus2] learned some [E]how

Lynyrd Skynyrd-Sweet Home Alabama
[Loop section where riff is played over drums for first time and store - then just have solo sound on in background and either play little lead lines or the piano part or that chromatic riff which repeats in certain sections - Can try the F and C section]
[Intro - BPM 98 - riff on own - then riff and drums]
(notes - Wheels, Well I Heard, In Birmingham, Muscle Shoals)
[Verse]
Big wheels keep on turning
Carrying me home to see my kin
Singing songs about the southland
I'm missing old mammie once again
And I think it's a sin, yes
[Riff]
Well I heard Mr. Young sing about her (oo, oo, oo)
Well I heard old Neil put it down
Well I hope Neil Young will remember
A southern man don't need him around anyhow
[Chorus]
Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet Home Alabama
Lord, I'm coming home to you
[Solo 1]
In Birmingham they loved the governor (oo, oo, oo F to C bit)
Now we all did what we could do
Now Watergate does not bother me
Does your conscience bother you?
Tell the truth
[Chorus]
Here I come Alabama
[Solo - Alabam ah, ah, ah]
[Riff]
[Verse]
Now Muscle Shoals has got the Swampers (oo, oo, oo)
And they've been known to pick a song or two (yes, they do)
Lord they give me oh so much
They pick me up when I'm feeling blue
Now how about you?
[Chorus] F to C bit at end
[Chorus]
[Loop Notes]
1. Practise stop for G to F
2. Solo ideas
- start with that bend 15th fret on E
- 2 note phrase then tap high note -
- that 2 note per string thing seems to work - 35 35 45 45 35 35
- fast line that works is G - 14 B 12 13 15 13 12
- try a bit of G minor as well but with stay away from minor 3rd
- try the open strings bit - but on G string - 4p2p0 and variations of
- the play the 'ah ah ah' bit - B - 15 13 12 and play the triads around later

[Intro - BPM 120]
[Verse 1]
[F#m] Ticking away the moments that make up a [A] dull day
[E] Fritter and waste the hours in an offhand [F#m] way
[F#m] Kicking around on a piece of ground in your [A] hometown
[E] Waiting for someone or something to show you the [F#m] way
[Chorus]
[Dmaj7] Tired of lying in the sunshine,
[Amaj7] staying home to watch the rain
[Dmaj7] You are young and life is long, and
[Amaj7] there is time to kill today
[Dmaj7] And then one day you find,
[C#m7] ten years have got behind you
[Bm7] No one told you when to run .. (run - low E - 4 2 0)

And you [F#m] run and you run to catch up
with the Sun, but it's [A] sinking;
[E] Racing around to come up behind you ag
[F#m] ain
The [F#m] Sun is the same in a relative way,
but you're [A] older,
[E] shorter of breath, and one day closer to
[F#m] death.
[Dmaj7] Every year is getting shorter,
[Amaj7] never seem to find the time.
[Dmaj7] Plans that either come to naught, or
[Amaj7] half a page of scribbled lines.
[Dmaj7] Hanging on in quiet desper
[C#m7] ation is the English way.
The [Bm] time is gone, the song is over.
[Bm7] Thought I'd something [F] more to say.

[Em7] It's good to warm my bones beside the [A] fire
[Cmaj7] Far away, across the field
[Bm7] Tolling on the iron bell
[Fmaj7] Calls the faithful to their knees

[More Notes]
Nice idea for drum fill + guitar at same time to get &1xx 2xx 3x&
Strum up with all fingers of right hand and then back down with thumb
to play the snare for 1& then play snare and fingers together for
2xx then just snare on 3 and then just fingers with bass for x&
[Solo]
With solo you can allude to it in chords
Pick up - Dm Dm
Dmadd9 (x57585) Dm

Run is 3 triplets then final phrase - pluck with fingers and thumb and emphasise the one of each triplet

Then Dm Dm G/D Dm (back to Dm on offbeat) - Dm Dm Dm Dm
[Intro - alternative notes]
[Section 1 - Twice]
Dm (line is B - 6, G - 7 .... G - 7, B - 6)
4 notes over 3 pattern B6 G7 x G7
Actually can just play Dm7 Dm x Dm which alludes to line
Horn line just before G
Octaves - A-5+B-3 to A-9+B-6
Fingering is important - play with 1 and 3
so can get to Gadd9 quickly
Gadd9 G (second time G G(B-5) G)
F G
Dm Dm(B-8) Dm pattern 1(Dm) xx 2(Dm(B-8)) Xx Dm
Play above all with downstrokes to get right feel
Means have to play snare hit quickly after down stroke
[Second time around]
Octaves - A-5+B-3 to A-9+B-6
(Dm with 3rd finger off) X55765 (Dm) X57765
X57765 X57X68
G G(B-5) G -- simulate guitar G G9 pull off to G
(Can potentially get away with playing G7 which frees up finger
for these lines and full E 5p3 B 6 line before playing F

Nice approach - when you want to imply G chord play melody on E string so by virtue of fretting
the open G rings - then want to imply D, move melody to B string that naturally mutes the G string
and the low D string rings more
With A just play chord down the neck
Also really helps to be in open D tuning
[Violin Line 2 - relative to capo - note you can add trills and hammer ons and pulloffs and sounds great
stick to right string though for each chord]

[Verse 1]
[Dm7] Looking back on [G7] when I, [Dm7] was a little
[G7] nappy headed [Dm7] boy. [G7] [Dm7] [G7]
[Dm7] Then my only [G7] worry, [Dm7] was for Christmas;
[G7] what would be my [Dm7] toy. [G7] [Dm7] [G7]
[Bridge 1]
[A7] Even though we [B7] sometimes
[Em7] would not get a [Gm6-355353] thing;
[A7] We were happy [B7] with the
[Em7] joy the day would [A7#5-5x566x] bring.
[Verse 2]
[Dm7] Sneaking out the [G7] back door,
To [Dm7] hang out with those [G7] hoodlum friends of
[Dm7] mine. [G7] [Dm7] [G7]
[Dm7] Greeted at the [G7] back door,
With; "boy, I [Dm7] thought I told you [G7] not to go out-
[Dm7] side?" [G7] [Dm7] [G7]
[Bridge 2]
[A7] Tryin' your best to [B7] bring the
[Em7] water to you [Gm6] eyes.
[A7] Thinkin' it might [B7] stop her, from
[Em7] whoopin' your be- [A7#5] hind.
[Chorus 1]
I wish those [Dm7] days, [G7] could,
[Dm7] come back once [G7] more,
Why did those [Dm7] days, [G7] e
[Dm7] ver have to [G7] go?
I wish those [Dm7] days, [G7] could,
[Dm7] come back once [G7] more,
Why did those [Dm7] days, [G7] e -

[Dm7] Brother says he's [G7] tellin',
[Dm7] 'Bout you playing [G7] doctor with that
[Dm7] girl. [G7] [Dm7] [G7]
[Dm7] Just don't tell; I'll [G7] give you,
[Dm7] Anything you [G7] want in this whole wide
[Dm7] world. [G7] [Dm7] [G7]
[Bridge 3]
[A7] Mama gives you [B7] money,
[Em7] for Sunday [Gm6] school,
[A7] You trade yours for [B7] candy,
[Em7] after church is [A7#5] through.
[Verse 4]
[Dm7] Smokin' ciga- [G7] rettes and,
And [Dm7] writing something [G7] nasty on the
[Dm7] wall, [G7] (you nasty [Dm7] boy!) [G7]
[Dm7] Teacher sends you [G7] to the
[Dm7] principals of [G7] fice down the [Dm7] hall. [G7]
[Bridge 4]
[A7] You grow up and [B7] learn that,
[Em7] kinda thing ain't [Gm6] right.
[A7] But while you were [B7] doin' it; it
[Em7] sure felt outta [A7#5] sight.
[Chorus 2]
I wish those [Dm7] days, [G7] could,
[Dm7] come back once [G7] more,
Why did those [Dm7] days, [G7] e -
[Dm7] ver have to [G7] go?
I wish those [Dm7] days, [G7] could,

[Looper] Loop the main riff with drums - then you have to practise dropping it out for B section and then bringing back in - you can then have the lead sound and just build verses and closing sections or latter parts of verses where horns come in

Very superstitious, writings on the wall,
Very superstitious, ladders 'bout to fall,

Rid me of the problem, do all that you can,
Keep me in a daydream, keep me goin' strong,
You don't wanna save me, sad is my song
